That sparkly bag

OK, OK, so my camera battery needs charging. Must do that, then I'll get up a bunch of pics from our holiday travels. I think there were some great moments there.

Plus, then I can post my gorgeous new yarn. Wahoo! I can't wait to wind it up and start/restart a clapotis with it. The fact that it's 9 degrees here today makes me want to start even more.

Mostly, wanted to share a quick New Year's Eve anecdote:

We continued our yearly tradition by going to listen to Ellis at Passim. Every year the event feels more intimate, familiar....like a family. This year was no exception. There was great music, great exploits, much laughter. We sang, ate chocolate, and had a grand old time.

On the way home we passed a store with hilarious sparkly duffle bags. I pointed them out to Katie. As well as their position next to the makes-me-laugh-all-the-time legwarmers. Q, in the stroller almost falling asleep, asked what I was talking about. I told him I had seen a big, sparkly, purple bag.


Then:
A moment of silence followed by: "That is just my style!"

Love that boy! He sure has style.

Happy New Year all!
