Random Item One:

Kitty Hat was a birthday gift from Mark last year…(which was the week we realized we fell in love.) The Starbucks girl in Rochester called me Lil’ Bear when I wore it one day. Hence, my nickname Lil’ Bear.

Lil Bear and Mark wandered out last night for a quick bit of shopping.

One man came over to me and said “It’s cold and there are a lot of hats out there today, but that has to be the best one I have ever seen.”

Then, while browsing, a little girl walked by and said “Mommy look at the hat.”
“Yep. there’s a bear shopping today!”

And finally, when I checked out, the college boy said “that’s the coolest hat.”

Oh the attention that comes from a kitty hat.
