This was a gift from a reader named Monica (hi, Monica!), and the funny thing is that I have been eyeing this particular sugar bowl since I saw it at an Anthropologie in San Francisco in February. I was going to buy it then but decided it would be too difficult to get it home in one piece. And since then I’ve been meaning to stop by our local Anthropologie but haven’t had any time because I’ve been very busy complaining about the weather.
