People often comment on how Nazarenos look sinister, even without the obvious KKK reference. Well, this week while out on a Triana Tapas Tour (perfect for midday tours during Semana Santa – it was lovely and quiet over there!) I happened across a bakery that was closed for the holidays. And these little meringue nazarenos caught my eye, all droopy and melty from being left in a sunny shop window. And then I noticed the sad bendy birthday candles they were holding, an attention to detail that totally melted my heart.

Yep, it’s getting to be a thing with me and these Kipling bags. You may recall my first one (that looks almost exactly like this one but is about 1/3 the size), and then last summer when I was in Madrid I found another one on special offer that I thought would be big enough to be more of an all-purpose bag. Turned out it wasn’t, but it was almost big enough so I kept using it. And then I found this baby. Yeah, that stupid gorilla was the first thing to go, but there is room enough for everything I need to lug around, including my iPad mini when I’m travelling. Really I just like the style of these bags, and the fact that they’re machine washable. I don’t think I’ll ever buy another leather bag again.

Since the first day of spring was all wet and chilly, I spent the evening snuggled up with the cats and binge-watching (actually rewatching) Game of Thrones season 4 (season 5 starts next month and I can’t remember a damn thing from the previous season). So here’s Loki on my lap with his big orange head resting in the crook of my arm, Morcilla having a little grooming session on my “office chair” and Luna (out of shot) over on the sofa. Doesn’t Loki look totally blissed out? He’s one big hunka lurve that guy.
