new orleans beckons

all week i've been getting excited about my upcoming holiday in new orleans and special little things keep happening to assure me that the time for me to return to the city i adore is right.

after reading the new orleans design guide on design*sponge earlier this week, i was gifted this wonderful snow globe from my wonderful work associate jill. it doubles as a calendar which i love love love. i teared up during a staff meeting because i couldn't go to mardi gras this year, so everyone i work with knows how much i love new orleans.
