\"quince<\/a> <\/p>\n

That’s what my mother always called it.<\/p>\n

I call it a purse or in this case, a bag.<\/p>\n

I think it’s supposed to be a designer- but I don’t know enough about designers to have recognized it and I threw away the tag.  <\/p>\n

Cynthia bought it for me at a consignment shop- and I really like it.<\/p>\n

Designer or not- it is big and roomy with lots of pockets (hence the title)- and it is real leather and smells like an expensive bag (at least it did when I could smell- now with this cold I cannot smell anything!).<\/p>\n

Aidan likes it, too.  He was rummaging around when I was at their house and kept making “hmm!” sounds.  Like as if he was finding treasure.<\/p>\n

Which brings me back to the picture above.<\/p>\n

my pocketbook treasures.<\/p>\n

A small whistle from the fair, a booklight, and my traveling measuring spoons.<\/p>\n

These are so handy- they go into my purse every time I change it up.<\/p>\n

They are good to have in a pinch, can attract attention if I’m in a jam- AND- they are great for distracting small children during long church services.  (except the whistle- I wouldn’t use that during a long church service.  Although it might be interesting to see if it would – NO- I WOULDN’T use that during church services, at all.)<\/p>\n

Do you have pocketbook treasures?<\/p>\n

Are they shiny and useful and noisy?<\/p>\n

Just wondering.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
