An on-line store featuring many different items, some used, some new, some collectible. Weird, fashionable, usable or just pretty or pretty ugly. But never dull! I'll add a little history or background or just a little whimsy to the items I display here. I'll also write about, on occasion, the meanderings of how I'm viewing life, and some fun foods and recipes I find along the way; because life is about the journey not the destination.

Audiobooks are Great!
Today is the last day of the ESN scavenger hunters theme on books. There is nothing more rewarding than reading a good book. And although today we have kindles, nooks, ipads and other e-readers out there, for me there is nothing like the feel of a book with actual paper pages that you can turn, there's just something about the feel of a "real" book that is comforting. But audiobooks have their place too. Especially for a road trip. I remember some years ago a few friends and myself took a road trip up to Grand Forks, North Dakota to visit some friends. We decided a good audiobook would help pass the time so we decided to listen to "Me Talk Pretty One Day" by David Sedaris, and actually he read it himself. It is so hilarious, especially since he is reading it himself. Reading the book yourself pales in comparison to him reading it on audiotape. I can't remember how many CD's are in it now, but it sure helped to pass the time laughing hysterically all the way north! But if comedy is not for you, you might enjoy a mystery thriller audiobook from Sirocco's Curios.
