I was so excited to see Vera Bradley on the Desperate Housewives season finale!  If you didn’t catch it, Susan (Teri Hatcher’s character) handed Mike a Vera Bradley Mod Floral Pink Travel Cosmetic case when she was packing up to leave the hospital after giving birth to their new baby boy. 

Mod Floral Pink must be a favorite pattern among the ladies of Wisteria Lane — Marcia Cross’s character carried a tote bag in that particular pattern in several episodes this season.  This particular episode was the first time I saw another character with a Vera product.  Oh, Vera Bradley and Desperate Housewives - two guilty pleasures in one! 

The finale was great, but it’s torture waiting for next season.  I was a little worried at the end when they ran the “five years later” segment.  My first thought was that I must have missed some news that they were wrapping up the series - but they threw a couple of kickers in and it looks like there will be more to come…

I always finish the weekend by kicking back and watching Desperate Housewives, but this season there has been a new guest star that has appeared in almost every episode.  If you know me, and you read this blog, you will know I’m talking about Bree’s “sidekick”, Vera Bradley! 

I noticed Vera Bradley on the show when Bree (Marcia Cross’s character) moved into Susan’s house after her house was damaged by the tornado.  Since that initial appearance, Bree has been sporting a Vera bag in just about every scene that shows her out and about. 

I think this Sunday, when I cuddle up to watch my favorite ladies of Wisteria Lane, I’m going to start a new drinking game.  Every time I see Vera Bradley in a scene, it’s bottoms up!  Who’s with me?  Think we’ll have a hangover on Monday - Mondays are rough as it is, so what the heck!

My husband says that he doesn’t like me watching the show - that he thinks it’s a bad influence…

I guess he’s probably right!
