We often moor our little Nordic Tug there while waiting for friends to join us. During that time I find an amazing quantity of glass so can pick and choose colours. I have never found amethyst I admit. <br />Enjoyed reading your blog. <br />Regards Janine in Tsawwassenminwkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08487584020742239991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5385735624350758337.post-53724016630395376802018-04-08T04:16:49.461-07:002018-04-08T04:16:49.461-07:00I have noticed the neutral straw totes about the p...I have noticed the neutral straw totes about the place, and been considering I need one - and soon! In June, plastic throwaway shopping bags will be banned in our State, and we all have to be much more mindful of taking a suitable tote, always! The coat is very stylish, and chic, as are your red flats. I think you are a very good shopper, clearly it is inherited :)Patriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11685403215601517267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5385735624350758337.post-90369497316411792992018-04-07T18:54:31.124-07:002018-04-07T18:54:31.124-07:00Your shopping expedition was a nice success.
