Today I ventured up to College Avenue to go to Tail of the Yak. It was a fun store full of gorgeous paper, textiles and objects. The surprise balls were even more amazing in person. I bought a wood block stamp and metal circles with the letters of Emma’s name.
Also visited Nabolom Bakery, a co-operative bakery that makes yummy things. I am a big fan of morning buns and they did not disappoint. I bought Emma her first toy at a nearby toy store and then met maiki downtown for Froyo.
Nabolom is great! I recognized that cup immediately. I love that it is a co-op, and I appreciate their effort to minimize waste (disposable stirrer sticks, cups) by using actual, washable utensils and cups.
I had been there before to try their vegan pastries and I fell in love with the place. Somebody was playing the piano and the atmosphere felt very comfortable. I really appreciate the dishes and flatwear too!
