Susan Stephens' Writing Diary

My father always used to say, you can make anything work with the right accessories- by which he meant, utterly divine, and fabulously expensive accessories.
I however like to think that I am the best bargain-hunting-snuffle-hound this side of the pound! (Dog-pound, that is.)

Today (I am salivating already) I found the impossible: a truly fabulous pair of gloves at a reasonable price.
Yes, I know I'm on the Hermes December 2004 'sale' list- Well, for any gloves they have going, basically, but today I found something almost better...
(Almost? Well, at least I admit I have an addiction).
The divine objects of my affection (no, adoration) are the softest black (what a surprise) calfskin, but have the narrowest red leather threaded through them- tres subtle, and tres unputdownable, which is why they just had to come home with me today.

Yes, I'm in an intense state of bliss right now, and likely to remain so- until the day I lose one glove- a day which sadly, past experience has taught me, will come.

Never mind- for now, I'm happy- ecstatic, in fact.

Love to all, and happy glove-hunting!
Susan
