You are quite fetching in your new hat, Ruth! I enjoyed the round-up of past posts and your new adventures in Japan with such interesting guides. The photo of the surf is amazing!

Husband buys secretly after wife indicates it's too expensive and passes it up? Sounds familiar! This year it was a black and gold Movado Museum watch. If Lovey likes it, Lovey gets it.
