Preparation H

It's been a busy couple of days at The Nook. Unpacking the 44 boxes of kiddie goodies, receiving our greeting card inventory, trying to figure out exactly, exactly where the shelves are going - trying to make sense of our POS system. In know - that stuff is totally boring to most folks, but for us it's like Christmas morning every day around here!

How about a photo update instead...

This one's for my mom. If we had *any* wall space, I'd hang it out front, but I actually prefer it over the desk so I can see it...


Some of the toys...


Ready for books!


More toys!


Puzzles...lots and lots of puzzles...


The mess is killing me...


More shelves waiting for books...


More mess waiting to be cleaned up...


Arts supplies for kiddos...


This display weighs about 600 pounds...




Baskets for our bacon candy. You heard me.


Canvas Nook bags...


Just testing the cubes out...


You do *not* want to mess with this guy...


I had so much fun picking each and every one of these cards out...


Right?


Just a couple of my faves...








Yeah - you're pretty much not going to find these cards at the old grocery store...

Oh - speaking of which - I stopped by the store to pick up a few items for my trip (heading to Florida for a week tomorrow for a booksellers' thing), and bought my first tube of Preparation H for the puffy bags I have under my eyes from not getting enough sleep. Anyone else ever tried that? It's one of those quirky beauty tips I remember reading in one of my mom's Cosmos when I was about 11.

Can't hurt right?

Well - back to work!
