Things we left behind

Wuggy Norple recently was saddened by the realization that some things he loved and counted on in California just don't exist in Ithaca. Some of you know the depth of his love of the KFC Mashed Potato Bowl. He was crushed to find that there is no KFC in Ithaca at all. He was so disappointed that after a recent hair-cut-trauma when I offered to take him out to any restaurant he chose, he decided he'd rather go without if he couldn't have his beloved Mashed Potato Bowl. The blow was compounded later that same week when his worst fears were confirmed; the Ithaca Starbucks does not serve mini vanilla scone. Really, why even leave the house.

When surveyed, Exploding Poptart admitted that while she loves her new yoga studio, she still pines for Willow Glen Yoga, especially when a morning of Vinyassa is followed by a Carrot Ginger Muffin. Papercup Mixmaster misses hanging out in the studio in the old garage. (The studio is currently in a dozen or so boxes piled on the electric organ in the upstairs hallway.)

Moistly, we all miss our California friends very much.
