Awesome Girls, and Paying It Forward
Do you guys know Micaela? I found her blog a few months back and I think she is just so glam. She’s always impeccably styled and posts pictures of Brigitte Bardot on her blog and is a member of the Benevolent Postcard Society, which like…come on. You know you wish you were a member of the Benevolent Postcard Society, too.
Micaela has been lovely and amazing enough to invite me to be a part of the Pay It Forward challenge. Nifty right? The way it works is this: the first three people to comment on this post will get a most excellent present in the mail at some point in the near future (I think the original rules say you’ve got a year to deliver, but I’m going to aim for January)–so long as you promise to post the challenge on your blog and send three presents of your own out there into the world.
You know. Pay it forward. Random acts of kindness. You saw the movie. I saw it on senior retreat in high school and it had all the curses edited out and then we had to tell each other we were sorry for being such wretches all the time, Mean Girls-style.
ANYWAY, so far as I can tell, the presents could be anything at all: a box full of amazing novels from the used book store, a giant jar of honey from the farmer’s market, or a cozy scarf you knit yourself if you are so inclined. COOL RIGHT?
Right.
So let’s play!

This is so awesome! I wish I had been on time but I hope to be able to pay it forward too soon. I will find a way.
