Hudson Bay does make me sing praises to thee, O Canada! I do not yet own this classic stunner, so tonight I'll be cuddled up with my scarflette, a knit that has, unfortunately, no resemblance whatsoever.
Dear god, this is beginning to sound like a dirge. I'll be thinking of you all cozy with the Olympic hunkthletes.
Lydia, everything you ever say makes me smile.
Love the image of you cuddled in your scarflette...
Sniff. Sniff. O' Canada, My home and native land...
Dedicated to you, friend.
You know that I love this post for many reasons. Happy opening-day-ceremony to you!
Brooke, I thought so much about you when I wrote this! It's SO you, in so many ways... (-:
These are lovely! My best friend (a Canadian) has an old Hudson's Bay blanket and I'm quite covetous of it. Would love to have that striped hooded coat for myself.
Glad to have found your site! (via BYW)
