Weekend Recap: It's in the bag

I'll start by saying I did not leave the house on Sunday. I didn't even change out of my pajamas! It was as glorious as I imagined it. I only left twice on Saturday to forage for food and to use a treadmill.

Gman and I planned this weekend of hibernation before the holidays and it really was just what we needed. I began working on some of my goals for this year - like re-learning French with some lessons via Rosetta Stone and doing a bit of art history research which I hope to share with you soon. We also planned some more trips this year!

However the most exciting part of the weekend was the generosity of my parents, who gave me a new handbag for my upcoming birthday! I've been wanting a Clare Vivier bag for over a year now and was so excited to finally own one. As soon as I tore open the box from Anthropologie, I knew I wouldn't be able to wait until my actual birthday to use it. We are now attached at the handle. Not only have I barely separated myself from it, but the smell of that buttery soft leather is intoxicating. Yes, I will keep it. No, I don't have a problem.

Thanks mom and dad!
