so very thankful.

hiking on the shores of walden pond in concord, mass.

it was a wonderful holiday weekend for us here in massachusetts and i hope it was for you as well wherever you gathered with loved ones! we enjoyed a tasty feast, good company, and some quality down time. we got our tree up and even got to do a bit of adventuring around the area which turned out to be a great day of hiking around the ridgeline of thoreau's walden pond. thoreau is a pretty big hero of mine and my sister so it was a beautiful and meaningful experience to be there..and on such a gorgeous day too!

sales are going well in the shop this cyber monday so i am a happy camper sitting here eating my leftovers, listening to brenda lee christmas songs, renewing items, and attempting to get new ones listed. would it be too much to ask to have every monday be this lovely?

p.s. don't forget, there's free shipping in both shops (geschichtenvonkat and purls and lace) until the end of today and a plentiful 30% off section!
