Sometimes you really don’t need a reason other than “just because.”
As I was sitting at my desk on Friday afternoon, wondering if I would ever make it to the end of the day, my wonderful husband walked into the office and placed a perfectly wrapped box in front of me.
“What is this?!” I asked.
He replied, “Just open it.”
I carefully opened the package, trying extra hard not to destroy the pretty wrapping paper.
The box contained a brand new Vera Bradley wallet. A cute design composed of various greens and blues. It instantly brought a smile to my face.
If you know me, you know that I don’t like to spend money on things like clothing, wallets or purses. As a result, my old wallet was on its last legs. Ben, knowing this, decided to get me a “just because” gift…that I could actually use.
So, keeping with the spirit of “just because,” I am giving away a $10 gift card to a local business.
Cheechako Taco is a bangin’ taco joint located in downtown Plattsburgh. They focus on two things: Tacos and burritos. They also get major bonus points for using local produce, tricky trivia questions and crazy decor.
They have a little something for everyone’s taste, all with a unique twist and lots of melted cheese. You can view their menu here.
I highly recommend this place. Check it out if you live in the area or even if you are just visiting!
