We met at our secret starting spot ...

I jumped out of my car into Val's & we were off.

Val drives, I buy lunch ...  perfect.

Onto the 22, to the 91, to the 605 to LB.

Our destination ...

We visited here last year & I did a blog: here.

A tiny shop packed full of items & materials

all "too good to throw away", to encourage & promote

fun ways to make creative reuse projects. See more here.

 

Bins & bins & boxes organized & filled with the ordinary ...

ready for fun re-purposing & a new life.

Located in the famous East Village Artist District,
this small shop is community oriented, featuring

 a huge bulletin board for cards, services & contacts.

 And, offering a sales platform for recycling artists.

A non-profit with a big heart, this Mother daughter team ...

has walls of awards, citations & proclamations for 
their outstanding & important work.

You would like it too.

Win - win - win!

And we also have a tradition of eating at ...

same block, right on the corner.

It's important to keep up traditions!

And one more thing...

On the way home, I saw this!

Do you see it?

I loved it so much that patient & kind Val 

drove around the block ... so I could take 2 more.

This made my day!

It just might have to be a new tradition on our LB trips.

A smile for Tuesday ...
