Where I Hang My Handbags

The Winter Wonderland that welcomed me home from my cruise on April 18. Yes, April.

Being gone for the past ten days has been wonderful, and to be honest, I had been dreading coming back to the dreary midwest (I was welcomed with 2 inches of snow.)   But it wasn't until I actually got home that I realized how much I missed it. Here is what I'm happy to be back to.

• My own bathroom.  No matter how hard I try, I never remember all of my beauty products. Plus, I hate how hotel towels never smell like fabric softener.  I love fabric softener.
• My own bed.  This might seem obvious, but it's not just my bed.  It's all my stuffed animals, and my blankets, and my kitties.
• The prettiest part of spring has still yet to come!  Everything is about to blossom, and being gone for a week makes warm weather that much closer.  Sunshiney weather *has* to be right around the corner.
• Seeing my family and friends.  Duh.  Even if you're not gone long enough to really get homesick, it's still such a great feeling to see the ones you love after being away.
• Cooking.  I will be cooking nothing but vegetable for the next month I swear, due to the fact that I ate enough to feed a small country on my vacation.  Far too many quesadillas, escargots, and tequila shots.  Detox time.
