I know it’s a little way past the gift giving season but I thought I’d share this kooky toy I found whilst out holiday shopping. I found the kit at a Big Lots (discount store) in Colorado. I love the items you retrieve from the ‘cadaver’: dog bones, donuts (?), various organs. Gives new meaning to ‘playing doctor‘ because it’s way more lucrative for your kid, everyone knows surgeons make more.
It wasn’t as cold as it has been over the last few weeks so I took a walk over to Greenpoint today to mail a few letters and shop for soup ingredients. I am making a potato-cauliflower soup tonight and I needed to pick up the cauliflower and garlic but ended up also getting chives and an extra bag of potatoes.
It was a good walk. On the way I passed: a house that looks like it could have been home to Norman Bates, some groovy street art and a little delivery truck with a mustache drawn on it’s back.
Groovy street art aside I actually didn’t intend on going to Greenpoint today. I needed to mail a couple letters and it was the nearest post office to me.
