That's what Fairway calls itself. It opened a store (super duper market) near me many years ago - I always tell myself to go there regularly, because when I go rarely I end up carrying home far too . . .

I stopped at the Goodwill Industries store today.
I bought a cutlery organizer - I'll use it on the shelf below my computer for pens, pencils, etc. It fits nicely and keeps those things handy! . . .

I live in a large apartment. Many of the large apartments in the building are rented by the room, so each room is another neighbor - it's like dorm living for grown-ups -they share the kitchen . . .
