Daughter actually suggested we go there today. Now she has a new favorite
store!

I used to go to the one in Lynnwood WA and I bought things to make gift
baskets. Then in CA, we got a little dining table there. But I haven't
been able to get husband or daughter into there since and I've not been near
one when I was by myself.

I saw a lot of great little things, food and otherwise that I will get
closer to Christmas when we make the surprise ball. And daughter got some
Hawaiian Kettle Corn. She also really liked the little pepper shaped
bakers. She wants to get them for making stuff bell peppers. Totally
unnecessary, I know. But cute! We didn't get them today but I suspect one
day I may be getting them as a gift.

The "World Market" store in Michigan on Hall Road also closed it's doors.
Mostly they had kitchen decor. Nothing there impressed me. I prefer to go
to "Sur La Table" for kitchen gadgets.

like springfield IL. i haven't even looked to see if there is one in stl.

Why do people say just husband or daughter or son and not use the word
"my" before? You wouldn't say, I can't get dog to lie down or I lost
cat the other day.

Dunno. I just apparently do.

To avoid sounding like an overly-possessive prick?

Foo birds. I just had a birthday.

A lot of what they had foodwise was stuff I could get elsewhere for less
money but they did have some things I hadn't seen anywhere else. I was told
at one time they had gluten free pasta, but I didn't see any today.

Now that I think about it, they didn't ask me for my birthday. Just my
e-mail and phone number.
