For the last few years, I've participated in the Reddit Christmas Gift Exchange. This year, I received this book from a total stranger. It's a good book AND one I don't have in my library.
This little castle is outside Stuttgart. It's got a great view. It's also, for a castle, new. This was never a fort - it was built as a retreat in the late 1800's.
This lovely purse was given me by Andreas' parents. It's gorgeous quilting, fabric, and construction. I'm afraid to use it for fear of getting it dirty. Thank you.
