While on our trip, my dear FIL bought me the best present ever. EVER. The kind of present that makes me feel like a princess out of a fairy tale. Where I wake up in the middle of the night thinking "Oh wow, that was such a great dream... WAIT! It's REAL!"
So, I won't keep you guessing any longer. This is my new toy:

Thank you for viewing, and my deepest apologies if I made anyone painfully jealous (but trust me, I've been there too).
Au revoir,
Lystessa
