Several weekends ago my parents came and spent a couple of days with me! In addition to simply wanting to escape the always slow to recede snow, Mom had a hair appointment and Dad had a pretty serious appointment with my substantially long Daddy-Do list! Earlier that same week, during a day of Boise's infamous spring tornado-strength winds, I discovered a large chunk of my siding had taken up residence in my driveway. Not a good look--even for my nearly-ghetto neighborhood! Dad and I agreed we should tackle the siding project while Mom was off at her appointment. However, if you leave Dad and I alone together, well, we'll ditch the to-do list for an adventure every time! And that is just what we did! As early spring adventures are pretty hard to come by, Dad and I had to be pretty creative in our endeavor to avoid work! As it turned out, each of us came up with half of the adventure. Dad had learned of a store he wanted to check out and I had just read about the opening of a new restaurant! No worries, we EVENTUALLY got the siding tacked back in place!
DAD HAS BECOME AN AVID CRAIG'S LIST FAN!
HE CAME ACROSS SEVERAL LISTING FROM THIS STORE IN CALDWELL,
ANDY'S SECOND HAND STORE.
BUT IT WAS THE BIG RED NEON SIGN ON THE ROOF THAT MADE
HIM DETERMINED TO VISIT THE STORE IN PERSON!
THAT'S RIGHT, WE WENT TO THE CRAP STORE!
WHERE SURPRISINGLY THERE WERE ACTUALLY SEVERAL . . .
CRAP-THEMED ITEMS!
SOME REALLY CRAPPY LITERATURE.
A HAT I COULD WEAR IN MY CRAPPY NEIGHBORHOOD!
SOME HATS THAT WILL SURELY GET THE CRAP BEATEN OUT OF YOU!
AND SOME ITEMS TO USE IF YOU ARE FEELING CRAPPY!
WHICH BRINGS ME TO OUR PURCHASE.
DAD BOUGHT ME A CRAPPY CANE TO USE WHEN
MY CRAPPY FEET ARE BOTHERING ME!
AFTER THE CRAP STORE MOM MET US SO COULD REVIEW . . .
BOOBIES!
IT WAS OPENING WEEKEND FOR BOOBIES, A NEW RESTAURANT I HAD READ ABOUT IN THE PAPER (DUE TO SOME OBVIOUS CONTROVERSY SURROUNDING THEIR NAME). JUST SO YOU KNOW, THE RESTAURANT IS DEFINITELY NOT HOOTER-ESQUE. SUPPOSEDLY, IT IS NAMED AFTER THE FAMILY DOG!
HOWEVER, IN KEEPING WITH THE THEME OF THE DAY, THE FOOD WAS PRETTY . . .
CRAPPY!
