Bulk-Up

I have a weird fear/loathing of grocery stores. I get lost. I wander aimlessly. I lose hope, etc. So when a friend suggested we hit WinCo, I wasn't that thrilled. But, I ended up thinking that it was so amazingly cool looking. Plus, any store that touts Fruit Rolls, Pig Ears, and Dog Bisuits in the same breath is just plain rad. Wanted to take more pix, but an employee in bulk foods busted me and said "we don't take pictures at WinCo". We don't?!

Full Stop

My love for the postal service is undying. Especially when old school goodies like a telegram come through it.


Thanks, Alice!

Contender Cycles

My friend Alison and her husband Ryan own the best bike shop in America (this isn't me boasting, this is true-- they've won awards). I liked this news article on their efforts to help outfit an olympic athlete for his races. If you ever need a bike, give them a call. I'll just say that getting a bike in the mail is one of the best surprises you can find on your front porch.
