My lovely SS somehow harkened back to the summer 2006 I spent in NYC as a lowly intern. I often visited Fishs Eddy and coveted nearly everything and ended up only being able to affording a single serving set of their Pantone line. Ever since I have longed for more of their amazing stuff.

Lo and behold, when I arrived home from work today, my husband says, "Hey did you order an apron?" After chastising him for reading the customs label, I immediately started taking pictures and opening the airmail envelope.

My eyes immediately were drawn to the label on the plastic bag and there was an audible squeal! I remembered my manners and opened the lovely dragonfly card first. (You have lovely handwriting, SS!) Then I unfolded and opened the plastic bag to see a lovely vintage-style apron with NYC skyline highlights in one of my favorite colors.

You didn't realize this, SS, but you also gave my cat a gift as he isn't so much of a box cat as a BAG cat. Insert gratuitous cat picture here.

Apologies for crappy smartphone pics. Too excited to use a real camera!
