mac and cheese or little zones of awesomeness

I had to travel to the city of Binghamton, NY yesterday to deliver a carload of pots.  Tom's Coffee Cards and Gifts is one of the most awesome places I have ever dealt with…a really fun emporium of STUFF.  Down the street is a dinosaur--a small and beautiful independent bookshop.  The kind you LOVED 30 or 40 years ago, and now are quite rare, Riverread Books.  These friendly places are little zones of awesomeness in life, like sitting down to mac and cheese--you know you will calm, contented and happy by going there.

It is like mac and cheese for me making pots like these too, wicked satisfying…have an awesome Thursday!
