Oh Moonie, you absolutely must share! Scans please!

A Jeopardy calendar for my desk, some nice knitted scarves, gift cards, a gorgeous Coffee Table book California Romantica (spanish revival 1920's homes in LA - gorgeous), a shoe buckle from one of Valentino's costumes from Monsieur Beaucaire* and more tonight when my roomie and I exchange out gifts. Oh, and a bag of ricola cough drops, much needed.

As soon as it is delivered, my gift to me, a brand new queen sized bed and hopefully a good night of sleep from now on! Bah Humbug to the futon that has served me well, but not lately.


* * although it comes with COA, I doubt the veracity of the claim. But will never tell that to the friend who got it for me. I appreciate the thought, it was beyond generous and thoughtful.
