I'm a hoarder















You're probably wondering...what does being a hoarder have to do with this cute macaron chart from Laduree?...My answer: this is the small leaflet I took while shopping at the Laduree shop inside the Mitsukoshi department store. Actually, I took several because I knew I wanted to pass along one to my best buddy, KP. It's hard to see but the names of each macron are in French & Japanese...Kinda cute, no? Whenever I go to a cute and/or unusual shop, I always pick up their business card or book mark, or whatever else is given away as freebies. I have a ton in my wallet from my Tokyo travels and I find it amusing to look through them every once in a while..... Fancy that!

  2. I am with you Laura! I don't know how Ms. M didn't take the whole stack...I am sure I would have. I hate to sound like I am waiting around for presents but I can hardly wait for Ms. M's Tokyo gifts. I would gladly take a box full of pamphlets and business cards!

    By the way, I love business cards too! One of my favorties...from the 'Excellent Dumpling House' in China town in NYC...acquired on Thanksgiving Day 1997...one of my favorits Thanksgivings ever!
