There's No Place Like Home

I'm home.  I finally got on the plane in New York and Josette picked me up and brought me straight out for drinks with Summer and a few other friends.  It was fabulous to talk and laugh until very late and then go back to Josette's place for a yummy sleep.

When I woke up, I took a HOT shower and indulged myself by using every last one of Josette's products.  Aveda!  Burt's Bees!  Colgate!  I got all super clean and we had cup after cup of french press coffee overlooking her Minneapolis street while we waited for my sister Keri to arrive to bring me straight up to my parents' cabin.  It only took us 10 hours, but we got here last night.  And I've been smiling ear-to-ear ever since.

A couple things I learned from traveling:

I will never, ever go anywhere again without my flatiron.

A little makeup never hurt anybody.

I love Target.  And Trader Joe's. 

Minnesota is my home, and no other place in the world can even compare.

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww....I (heart) Minnesota!
