Maybe it is the years I spent as an accessories and furniture buyer, but I cherish the little mementos, tchotchke, knick knack, bric-a-brac and other decorative items that adorn my home.  Some are whimsical, others special finds, but combined they create a story of places I have been, people I have met and moments I want to remember. 

 I never knew how to spell Tchotchke until Absolute ran an ad appropriately titles "Absolute Tchotchke", to which I agree....tchotcke's, ABSOLUTELY!
