Speaking on the Weekend

Coco and I got up decently early on Saturday and headed to Raleigh to do some market shopping.

Before hitting the highway, we stopped off at the Duke University Surplus store. They were having a 50% off sale, so it was worth a stop. It's a pretty interesting warehouse. If you're in need of a beaker, computer monitor, desk chair, or a campus security cruiser then this could be the place. We happened to be looking for a filing cabinet, and walked out with a big ol' one for 25 bucks.

First stop in Raleigh was the flea market at the NC State Fair Grounds. Didn't get much (pry bar and 2 records), but had a good time browsing. We also decided to pass on the fried twinkies. Coco's pregnant so she didn't think that would be such a good idea. I bet she was right. In this pic, she contemplates buying a "ball and mitt" salt & pepper shaker.



Next off was the Farmer's Market. Bought some strawberries (season just started). Coco opted for the mint chocolate chip and I went for some cider. Got back home just after lunch. Good day.
