This is..... the contents of my handbag. Really.

I am a real bag lady. My current handbag could carry a child, and has been used as a weekender bag. I just tipped it out and Miss 2 pounced, so here's the list:

Knitting (the beanie), pattern, and wool, all wrapped in a teatowel (Nan used to do this, I do too); Muesli bar (A.O apricot and almond); pencil; pens x 2; deodorant; pencil grip for Master 6; hairbrushes x 2; nappy cream; Lucas' pawpaw ointment (for lips); wrapper of kiddie sized 'Shapes' biscuits; tin of wooden threading beads to keep Miss 2 entertained; wooden bus (ditto);
small plane (ditto); Strawberry Shortcake and Lemon Meringue Pie (ditto); purse; diary; notebook; 2 sets of keys; wool for knitting up beanie; Miss 2's hat; hair elastic (me); hair elastic (her); elastic band (??); napoleon lip gloss; ultraceuticals ultra ACE hydration booster (from aeroplane); receipt; pack of fruit and nuts; pad; another handbag (!!) that I just finished; book (knitting by Anne Bartlett - borrowed from Mum); crocheted bookmark from Ruth; Video from a girlfriend (I'm taping Dr Who for her); Frankie magazine; phone; camera; pins (no idea why).

Yes, it's heavy, yes I have smaller bags, no, I am not proud of this! This is not a 'This is...' that I loved but it made me confess that my biggest source of clutter is my bag. Thanks Sharon! (Check her Lily and Iris blog out - very cool).

Next week's This is... is being chosen by Angela, and should be a fun one too. Never too late to join in - it's an interesting way to get to know people!
