"Whats in your Handbag"?

Today I came across a really great blog called Life, Lightly Salted written by Michele.
Micheles' post for today was entitled What’s In Your Handbag Meme.

It was such a fun post that I had to share it and I have posted my handbag photo and my answers below. You can copy the rules and the questions and do the same if you aren't worried about sharing your contents with us!

Oh go ahead its fun! :)

Here goes...


Here are the rules:
(This meme was started by Mimi, Queen of Memes )

Find a safe quiet place free of significant others, nosey meme makers, priests, nuns, all things religious and men in general. (If you're a guy just reverse this process to male and tell us about your wallet, tool box, briefcase or metro sexual accessory.)

1. Dump the contents of your handbag in a pile

2. Take a photo of your handbag and the contents

3. Be brave and explain to your fellow bloggers what lurks inside the handbag.

4. Tag others who might want to embarrass themselves

5. Answer these questions:

Describe the contents of your handbag.

Pocketbook-that my Mom brought me from Florence.
My cel phone,my iPod,my wallet, a change purse and a bunch of loose change that belongs in the change purse!
Pencil,shopping list and a store receipt,dental floss, 2 keychains (go figure)
eye glass case and sun glasses,a little purse that holds tampons :( a nail file,
a used tissue, and 1 of many articles I usually rip out of magazines while I’m waiting in the doctors waiting room!

*there is usually an envelope full on store coupons in there and my camera-both of which I removed this afternoon …

What's the most important thing in your handbag?
For me hands down…my cel phone- I am the one who never wanted on and now I’m totally lost without it!

What's the most embarrassing thing in your handbag?
Probably the tampons!:(

What's the smallest thing in your handbag?
Besides the loose change the dental floss!

Is there anything illegal in your handbag?
No not today…lol!
Thanks Michele this was fun!
