OK…upon further inspection, did you strategically place the Organic Baby Spinach box within camera view to counter-act the Starbucks For Baby effect? 🙂 hahahaha
And a kid that sits in a cart, to boot. You were having a perfect sort of day, weren’t you?
Hi there! Thanks for your comment on my Friday Fight the Frump post. In case you’re interested, I FINALLY posted my before and after pictures. Come check them out if you want!

Oh man . . . you have a Target? Why does everyone have a Target but me?!? Jealous . . . Oh, and don’t even get me started on Starbucks. We don’t have one of those either . . . UGH!
That does look like heaven! Cute picture. See you later. Kellan
OHH!!!!! I only get to go to Target–and drink Starbucks while there–when we visit my in-laws in Colorado. One of the hardest things about living in Russia is NO TARGET! We go there twice a year when in CO and STOCK UP on everything you can’t get in Moscow. It’s such a ritual that this happened at Natalia’s school:
When she was 3 1/2, they had their daily ESL class. Natalia was always bored during that class as the only native speaker, so she often tried to add a littl emore to her answer, depending on her mood. One day the teacher did shapes, on big piece of paper, with fat markers. As she drew a red circle, Natalia shouted out, you guessed it, “TARGET!” The teacher didn’t know the word, looked it up in the dictionary, and was SO impressed by Natalia’s vocabulary. Little did she know that my kid was talking about SHOPPING instead of archery! If the circle had been green, incidentally, it would definitely have elicited a “Starbucks” response, too!
About Starbucks–there’s one now in the center of Moscow, but traffic is a bear to get there. A venti latte costs $8.47, and it ended up costing me $11.75 to park while I met a friend for and hour and a half. (I’d never spent that much to park before, but I was running late and there were NO spaces anywhere. The Starbucks is on the old Arbat, the historic cobblestone pedestrian street, so automobiles and the need to park them certainly weren’t taken into consideration while planning the spot hundreds of years ago!) Sure makes your USA Starbucks suddenly seem a whole lot cheaper than you originally thought 🙂
Good for you…I don’t dare shop with my team, it never goes well. Lucky you:)
So while I am a proud Canadian I must say I envy your ability to drive to Target. I “heart” Target and Starbucks (yes we have them). Looks like bliss.
Whoa. I’m speechless.
