Baby Doll 
There it was as soon as we came in, the toy isle. What genius without children designed the layout of this grocery store? I tried to whisk the basket by quickly, but it was too late. She spotted it.

Casket Store To me it has as much right to be in a neighborhood as an adult bookstore. I am talking about the casket store that resides on the same block as my apartment here in Antigua, Guatemala. After all, these are things that we seek to hide in our society although we know they are a part of life. But in a country such as this, I find myself surprised all the time. The truth is as much as I pretend to be repulsed by the store, I am just as equally intrigued.
