Here’s a gem of a website that I’ve been tucking away because I adore it so much, I don’t want to share. Call it what you want, I suggest hoarding and/or being selfish, but I’m at a point in our relationship where I’m okay with letting you into my world of enchantment, also known as, Present & Correct. Enjoy.

Apples & Owls does not promote cigarette smoking….but with packaging as good as this, we can make exceptions. On second thought, I highly recommend Cigarette Juice instead. Anyhow, ASYL is responsible for art direction of these which not only make it easier to distinguish flavors, but instead of a flip top opening, they slide out from the slide. Skillionaire!

We heart The Curiosity Shoppe. (Yeah, me and about 60% of the female population in SF. And maybe 25% of males) They have a new exhibit up by Treatzone, another gem of San Francisco. I visited during their opening and yes, there was candy corn and Tecate. MmMmmmmm. And lovely ghosts painted on postcards.
