Good Morning, Washington!

playing tourist at Buckingham Palace last Thursday

Just like that, dear readers, I'm back in the States.  My journey to and week in England was full of highs and lows, but surpassing everything else about the trip was the giddy comfort of simply being with Jon.  I'll post a few photo-heavy stories from the trip over the next week or so; today I'm just going to leave you with a huge thank you for following along on Instagram, which made me feel like I had a whole host of friends beside us for our adventures, and for supporting me on Twitter in encouraging Virgin Atlantic to be more proactive about finding my (presumed but not yet officially declared) lost luggage.

And, of course, thank you for being so enthusiastic about Toko!  I read most of your comments on last Monday's post to my mother-in-law while we were in Suffolk and she loved hearing about your favorite pieces.  She's also said she's going to look into offering international shipping, so stay tuned for news on that front.  The winner of the giveaway, I am delighted to announce, is Jess Gerrow - Jess, I'll email you later today to discuss details.

Hope you all had a wonderful week, and I can't wait to catch up with you all properly now that I'm no longer roaming for data!
