A toque (say the word two and add a k sound at the end) is a hat you wear in winter. I am a sucker for cute knitted ones. If you knit, and have extra I will happily take one off of your hands. Because I am sweet that way. I was going to go on Etsy and do some links for you, but not only am I sweet, I am also lazy. so, no links for you.
I blogged the other day that I got a purse. I was showing it to my sister-in-law and she proved that she fits well into my family. She too has foot in mouth disease. Her comment on the purse?
"It's so cute and trendy. I really like it. I was very surprise YOU picked it out."
We were to busy ribbing her all night about that gaffe for me to make a confession. So, in the interest of honesty, this is what I should have responded. And didn't.
To be honest, when I went looking for a purse I had several criteria. It had to be black. It had to have a zipper, it had to be big enough to hold wipes, my wallet and my coupon keeper and it had to be cheap. Beyond that I could not care less. The fact that this one was "cute" did not even occur to me once. It could have been Grandma Mabel's purse for all I cared about it.
There we go. Geek status well restored.

My "purse" is a bag from Roots that has six separate zippered compartments. That, and the large size, and the fact that it is black, is the criteria I have for a good bag. Lots of zippered compartments.
My SIL also has foot in mouth disease. She told me, after birthing baby number two, that I should probably consider a tummy tuck. Hrm.
Hmmm... Knitted toques are a love of yours. Good to know!
I hear that b-days are a good day to get knitted toques from knitterly friends.
We were at luncheon on Sunday to acquaint prospective members with our church. One lovely young gal was there with us more middle aged types. She said, "I just love being around older people. Just like this" and she looked around the table. The rest of us had never quite seen ourselves in that light. That gal will fit well in our church. We value honesty.

I'm still using a diaper bag as a purse. Haven't had a kid in diapers for almost 3 years......
I want a cute knitted hat!
A-ha! Mystery solved. As for purses... I went on a shopping spree recently (which you'd know if you were on Facebook) and a friend forced me to purchase a purse. That wasn't a washable backpack. *sigh*
