Went to Union Square again today, ostensibly to hit the Greenmarket. However, the Annual Holiday Market was just setting up, and I had a good old-fashioned shopping meltdown. Spent about $175 in ten minutes … ten minutes, tops. Tunisian jasmine candles. Nepalese knit hats and mittens. Turkish wind chimes. And even three Christmas presents.

Kinda makes the hyperventilating I later did over the three adorable, edible, miniature pumpkins seem … well … minature.
