I just discovered J. Jill since it opened here a few months ago. I never shopped there before we moved, I’d always pass it by. That being said………..I have turned into a CLOTHES MOLESTER!!! All their sweaters FEEL absolutely yummy (and the colors are cool). Much softer than any chenille throw you could wrap yourself in. My children find extra reasons to touch me when I’m wearing one :). 
I also just learned you can have “audioblogs” (might be something I play with in the future). I mention that here because I WISH there was such thing as a “sensoryblog”, then you could FEEL exactly what I’m talking about ’cause the picture just don’t do it justice. This IS the sweater I have (no, that’s not me, I have a head and I’m not that stiff), the color is “vicuna“. I never heard that word before, so curious me, I looked it up (I woulda just called it cocoa or coffee bean or BROWN for heaven’s sake!). And lo and behold, I learned about an animal I never 
knew existed before now!! Here’s a picture…
Hmmm…shopping has become EDUCATIONAL!!! I wonder if anyone (any husband) will buy that as an excuse for a girl’s day out. “Honey, I’m going to go learn with the friends today.”
He, he he. Funny blog! Vicuna. Cool word and strange looking animal, but fun to say. Love ya, mean it, bye!
It is so worth a try! Thanks for the word of the day….apparently, blogging is educational too!~Kari
Anonymous? ANONYMOUS??? You’re ANYTHING but anonymous. Glad you stopped in. I might like sharing my pensieve with a few beloveds…or those bored out of their minds surfin’ blogs… See? I think we could come up with a few more “educational” things to do if we just put our minds to it.
educational shopping! woo hoo I’m all for it!
If you did an audio blog… maybe you could get one of those creatures bleating in the background. I’m curious if they bleat or what.
lol learning — now I have 2 reasons to shop.
I learned that shopping is biblical. you see, Adam & Eve had a really bad day (ate the fruit, sinned, fell, lost their home, eternal curse, etc), & God gave them new clothes. So, when I have a bad day, I tell my dh I need to go get a new outfit 🙂 Now, I can use the “learning” line, too.
Or, research 🙂
