Best thing I own: The update

Boxed placemats. So shiny. So lovely.

Elsie Bellevue - she can be evil, but goddamit, I love that poodle!

The title for Best Thing I Own has a new hot contender. Oh my goodness, have you ever seen anything so good? I doubt it! And if you did doubt it for a second then pause and realise that yes, one of these placemats is the very same picture that I already own in a framed format! It's Elsie Bellevue! (the legendary detective poodle who brings bad luck to Helen). This means we now have two Elsie's in the house. I hope Helen isn't having a spate of bad luck as I type.
