memory books

Many of you wonder what I actually do during a given day (wish I could give you a legit answer :) Anywho, I read, internet, watch tv, clean (I can't wait to have a dishwasher again!!) workout and scrapbook. I wanted to be able to create a scrapbook of sorts to document all of our travels but I didn't want the hassle of bringing home a million brochures and ticket stubs. My solution- I brought 2 blank memory books that I picked up from TJ's before coming to Brussels. I've had a great time filling these books with bits and pieces of our travels and they have been a creative outlet and distraction from my uneventful weekday routine. I highly recommend taking a similar book on vacations - be it a week in Napa or a semester long adventure in Europe. All you need is a pair of scissors, glue stick and blank notebook and voila! you have creative and incredibly cheap keepsake of your travels :)
