Jackie's mom likes to take her gnome when she goes on vacation and she will take a photo of it in recognizable tourist locales. That prompted Jackie to buy not one (for the gift exchange), but two gnomes so she could keep one for herself. However, she didn't think Libby would be able to cart this one around in the same manner her mother does because it's a fair size larger. Oddly, she asked me if I could "roll the gnome around" in my garden dirt to make it look as if it came from her garden. Obviously, she's learned how to plant false evidence by watching a little too much CSI: NY.
It didn't take long for Libby to grow attached to her new little friend. Just seconds after setting it on the bar top, she was attempting to have it sip her beer.
