Obsessed: Matchbook

Happy Friday, you wonderful 3P readers!  This week has flown by but been very busy- pretty much exactly like this year has been!  I am gearing up for Christmas (if you couldn't already tell from posts herehere, and here) and because this is my favorite time of year I love infusing all-things Christmas into my everyday life.  I recently took some time to read through this month's Matchbook issue, and can I tell you with how obsessed I am with each article and feature in this publication?  I mean, completely adorable and totally inspiring online magazine- great job Matchbook!  But with a definition like the one listed below, how could any issue this team produces be anything but wonderful?!

"THE matchbook girl...
