Well, it’s back to normal life. But not before I post about IFB, which was Thursday, and so much fun. I moderated a fantastic group of panelists about the art of working with sponsors gracefully. I was so nervous beforehand, but fortunately it went off without a hitch. Ironically, I was most nervous about the panelist intros. I was so afraid I was going to screw it up!
Photos 1+2 are courtesy of the lovely Kim…above you see the end of a day of walking around NYC (SoHo, mainly) on my hotel bed. And the last photo is my one and only NYC souvenir. I allowed myself one purchase because everything else is so expensive (food & cabs) and of course something touristy wouldn’t do. I loved, loved this metallic gold leather jotter at Kate’s Paperie. It’s perfect in my handbag for jotting down notes, blog ideas, and inspiration.

I am so glad you enjoyed your trip! I hope you felt gorgeous in this hat, because you absolutely look it!! Welcome back to "real life!":)
Thank you! I was one of the only people at the conference in a hat, but I did enjoy wearing it! Even though I'm not much of a hat person đŸ™‚
You did fine moderating! I've been wanting a hat like that and after seeing it on you, I might have to get one!
