Yeah. I could do so much with nineteen thousand dollars. Like customize the heck out of my MINI.

What kind of style is this one? I haven’t found its name yet:

I was in Miami and visited this gorgeous location. Only went to look. Headed to Europe in a few weeks so if I buy anything it will be there

Wow I havent been on Bottega in a while. I didn't know they have the Bottega Series. I checked the website but all they have are DL Season Cabat which to me are deeply unattractive.

Saw this at Target the other day - I didn’t know there were knockoffs there and I actually think it shows somebody in their purchasing or design department has good taste! Target is one of my happy places.

(Knockoffs I see as an homage as opposed to counterfeits, which I detest.)

@GoStanford was it woven or stamped to appear woven? Target is one of my happy places too!

I didn’t inspect closely, but it looked not fully woven, more like perforated to resemble a weave. They had a couple of colors - a yellow as I recall.

I get a bang out of the people from back East (or even AB) who think lower mainland drivers can't drive in the snow - yes, there are people who follow too close, don't clear their roof and windows, think that their SUV with high performance summer tires can plow through anything - but mostly it's "the snow".
It ain't Saskatchewan, and it isn't the snow and road conditions you get in Ontario. It's generally wet sloppy snow that freezes on contact, usually on an already iced up pavement.
I took a pic from my office on Tuesday of four buses (you can only see two of them in the photo) that were stuck. They sat there for hours, wheels just spinning on that Vancouver "snow" trying to move. What looks like slush on the roads is actually frozen. Ugh, what a mess!

PS: how come there's always a shortage of shovels in the winter and fans on the summer?
Also: did buddy manage to dig out his white Miata across the street from you? (at least I think it looked like a Miata)

When we had a foot of snow it shut everything down here.

Hi, do you have any recommendations for an organizer for the small Arco Tote?

 

[GoStanford]

Having a love/hate moment with the large Campana. It's a beautiful bag but the mostly-open top and my tendency to stuff things in has me worried things will fall out. Hasn't happened yet, but it feels like a matter of time.

Happy Summer y’all.
Came into the city yesterday to drop a friend off at the airport (at 4:30am this morning) and took her to my favorite beach. I came back today. I think I’ll sit here until Monday Now I’m just waiting for the tide to come in so I can go for a swim.

DH tested positive for Covid. He’s got flu like symptoms. Our home is a ‘u’ shape with an outdoor patio in the ‘u’ so we have a good system worked out so he can isolate but I can easily bring him food so he can enjoy a bit of fresh air. I’ve tested negative and feel fine.

Wishing you both the best as you navigate his recovery; hope that you continue to feel fine and test negative. I have several co-workers and acquaintances who have tested positive in this latest wave, it seems to be quite infectious.

Sorry…we continue to avoid the Covid “beast”! A few small gatherings to be with new granddaughter this past weekend…one in our house and one in stepson’s Mother’s house…hope we all continue to be healthy!
