I am enjoying my morning cup of coffee in the mug I picked up during my tour of the Merrimack Valley Food Bank, Inc.'s brand spanking new warehouse. Thanks, Debbie Callery!

Bought my college-aged son an old used car.
It has a cassette tape and CD player.
I think I'm in love.

A small sign the economy is weakening? My local car wash cut the free water and cut back on the free coffee offerings in the lounge for those buying the bigger cleaning packages (otherwise, they wash, you go). And they also raised their prices.
