My favorite stop on the weekend is this local bookstore. Every time I go in with David, we lose hours. Browsing possible titles, stories, and characters is consuming. It is always hard to leave (without an armful of books!). Today was a different type of visit. Instead of simply book shopping, we spent time browsing the kitsch section for Christmas stocking stuffers. There were amazing finds to be found. It was a productive, imaginative, and exciting weekend excursion. Walking home hand-in-hand, all the way home, we drank hot chocolate, laughed, and enjoyed the last moments of the weekend before the reality of work came creeping in to steal each of us away. Two days home together is just never enough. But at least visits to the bookstore can be savored.
