Christmas came a bit early to 185 Legion Road.  And I got a pony!  Not one to ride, but one delightful pony hair squares on my new Coach bag!!!!! 
My sweetie surprised me with it last night, and I love it!  I’ve stroke every patch of pink suede and distressed leather, but my favourite is the pony [...]
