So, we have a saying amongst my scoobies: “that was a TOTAL ‘leggo my eggo’”…which bit of nonsense refers to the time that my bff suddenly realized (when she was, like, 13 or so) that the aforementioned phrase was a pun on “let go of…” and that the phrase actually had a meaning other than the silly rhyme with the name of said toaster waffle (we’re not going to talk about the fact that that may or may not be a brand-fail for the Eggo marketing team ;-)…and the phrase has now expanded usage to apply to any situation wherein you suddenly realize something about something that should have been obvious from the start…and that is what this image is for me…the above image, which I COMPLETELY ADORE, features what is quite possibly the cutest little shirt I’ve ever seen (the front has a heart and a peace sign, and I just absolutely love it), and I had a sudden “leggo my eggo” moment a few months ago when a friend pointed me in the direction of the amazingly cute nina + tom…and I suddenly realized that the shirt was not (as I had assumed) a super-hip holiday card from a couple named Nina and Tom to their circle of good friends whom they love more than paper can say, but rather a really awesome, local, right-in-line-with-so-many-of-my-philosophies-in-the-world, right-on business that I filed it away in my “ok, gotta do a blog post about that soon” file, which, as you can see, I opened up today!!

Whew!! So, anyway, that was all by way of saying, if you show up for your session in a Nina and Tom shirt, I will probably go “squeeeee” and jump up and down and maybe give you a hug. :-)
