Whatchamacallit 70: Peace Love Pride by Roots

A few years ago, I was in Canada in the run-up to Pride, which is when I bought this bracelet.

While I can tell you that I bought this at Roots, the venerable Canadian clothing store, I have no idea how much I paid for it. I also do not know when I bought it, but I am pretty sure that I bought it in Montreal.

I’m not a huge jewelry person: I own one ring, a few bracelets, and some other odds and ends – but that’s it. I also rarely wear what I own – so this sits on the shelf outside my bedroom – the object of glances and warmth.

I like it because it celebrates Pride – an entirely necessary event – and it reminds me of Canada – an entirely necessary place on earth.

During the Covid-19 crisis, I am going to try and make a point of writing a blog post about an object in my home.

We’ll see how long this lasts.
