a tisket, a tasket

Look at my totally awesome basket!!



I first spotted one of these on the arm of a friend at Fort Irwin, but she had picked it up at a yard sale in Germany and did not know where to get another. So I was just thrilled when I saw them spotlighted in a local women's magazine. The shop in Athens where I got mine happened to be one I could use my gift certificates in, so I made a beeline there when I had my weekend shopping getaway.



I've been using it for everything from library trips to grocery shopping to carrying all of our necessary supplies when out and about. I absolutely LOVE it! The handle is really comfortable, and the inside is very roomy, including a zippered pocket big enough for wallet, keys, and phone. They come in a whole bunch of colors overseas but only a few seem to be available here. Still very, very cool and useful at the same time.
