Justifying

How can it be that I had never set foot in a Crate and Barrel before today?!? That place is my own personal Nirvana. Clean lines, crisp whites, bold, bright colors.

However, I am nothing if not practical (someone, whose name rhymes with Spot, might choose the word stingy). I tend not to buy for myself, but if it's needed for someone else, I will spend in a heartbeat - especially if that someone is my Lady Love.

Me at C&B:

Ana would LOVE this beautiful glass bowl!
I can just see this white bedding set in her room!
Oh, and this mango pitter - just wait until she opens that up!

You'll be happy to know that I left empty-handed (but I WILL return).
