New Favorite Places: Tucson, AZ

We took a roadtrip to Arizona several weekends ago, just to see what we could see, and discovered the wonderful 4th Ave. district near the U of Arizona. A great place to blow your paycheck is independent bookseller (and t-shirt seller, poster seller, and doo-dad seller) Antigone Books. They have a wonderful selection of graphic novels, political bumper stickers, notecards, and gifts. I found myself purchasing a rechargeable (hand-crank) cat-shaped flashlight. It'll come in handy, I know it. A wide array of japanese paper design notecards. Entirely too lovely and expensive.And a happy discovery (not in the 4th ave. neighborhood, but happy nontheless): Lovin' Spoonfuls is an entirely veggie restaurant. I ordered a chili dog, and Zips had a turkey club. A nicely stocked menu. Lots of critter-friendly choices! We can't wait to go back!
