Reboxed...


I had a big kick the other day when I got a real find...$2 brand new Rebox walking sneakers. I had planned all day to get to Fred Meyers, the store & one thing after another delayed things almost to the point when I started to say forget it. In arriving I was rushing as I had to be somewhere else in 15 minutes and I had already lost 10 of those 15.
Anyway I went barreling through the shoe dept just knowing I would not find something in my size & price range when lo & behold the store was having a 50% off clearance on Rebox sneakers which that alone came under my budget. But it turns out all the discount coupons & rebate coupons I had on my list, I ended up only paying $2 for the Rebox.

Now I have good sturdy walking shoes which will get thier maiden walk tomorrow when we are to enjoy 70 degree weather for at least a week.
Meanwhile back at the ranch, er, store, I opted to return the next day to actually buy groceries as I wanted to stick to my list and one important thing was to stock up on herbs & spices.
Oh I plan to have a fresh herbal garden but considering I will be leaving in 6 weeks I do not want to start something I will have to stop. But I got beautiful red cabbage, on the vine tomatoes broccoli , jasmine rice, fixin' for salads . Funny thing which has been strange for me here has been the lack of variety of dried beans. It could be I'm in the wrong spot but I will probably have to try another store.
Can I say now for sure that it really is spring in PNW? I will have my trusty camera with me on my Reboxed maiden vogage walking as there is a block 2 streets over where there are magnificent blooms I have never seen before that I want to shoot ! I will give credit to Eugene as there are glorious gardens and breath taking trees to enjoy

So good shoes burn calories and beautiful blooms.
Now how cool is that?
