This really doesn't have anything to do with Sheldon's man bag or that
lovely sounding bag that Janet UK made but I'll share just the same.

Over 10 years ago I started carrying/wearing a ladies' backpack purse.
I love them!! Hands are free to shop and pick up items and examine.
I do have some very nice/dressy regular handbags that I fish out and
transfer items to them when I have to make an appearance at a wedding
or funeral. But I'm so used to being hands-free that a purse hanging
on my arm is quite annoying. That being said, I've never been a fan
of shoulder or cross-body bags.

Cold roast beef sandwiches sound like they would hit the spot for lunch
or supper on these hot days. Especially after any yard/fieldwork.
