My favorite thing of all: spending the holidays with friends and family
Well, 2009 is almost over – hellooooo 2010! It’s been a good year, with plenty of traveling, from Vancouver to Portland to Palm Springs; beautiful weddings full of family and friends, old and new; discovering delicious eateries, near and far; just a modicum of shopping :) ; and quite a bit of blogging. To everyone out there who actually reads this silly little thing, thank you! Here’s to a new year that’s even better than the last. Cin cin!
In lieu of a list of favorites from the past year, I’m just posting my current obsessions, many of which are birthday/Christmas presents I had to share! Check them out, after the jump.
