Update on the rainbow displays I helped Ass't Man put together. I often talk about the store in terms of drugs and poverty, but a lot of hip healthy happy young things shop there too---like this young woman who walked in the door just as I was photographing the end caps.
"Oh, you match the orange," I said, "you can be part of the display!"
And she instantly assumed an Instagram-compatible pose---I bet she's been posing for social media since she was a tot!
She reminds me of one of Linda Sue's wooden Polish dolls.
When I was a new blogger fifteen years ago, there was concern about posting children's photos--for safety reasons, as well as issues of children being too young to give informed consent.
But for many grownups, it's no longer an issue--it's become one of our New Norms, I guess .
Here are the other two rainbow end caps. Anything exciting on them has already or will soon be snatched up---those space-era star-pattern plates in with the greens, for instance, and, top-center of the blues, the vintage Hall bread pan with lid (underpriced at $3.99--anything vintage with an unbroken matching lid is gold).
I thought about getting both of these myself, but---neh, I am tired of bringing stuff home. In fact, I'm starting to take stuff back.
OK, I hope you have a 😌 good day, everyone, or a not-too-bad one!
