I dropped into Quips 'n' Notes for a meeting. Apparently, there's a coffee shop to the very back of…read morethe store offering coffee, chocolates and other snacks. With plenty of seating, it's an ideal spot for a quick meeting. (Though I couldn't find a free wi-fi connection.) Aside from that, the majority of patrons are there for the gifts and goods. Cards, clothing, toys, trinkets ... perfect for stocking stuffers. The store also hosts social events - on this particular day is was a girls' night out.

Another first review? BONUS!…read more This store has been around in many incarnations... it started as really just a hallmark store. Then, as it grew and evolved, it's so much more. At any given time you'll find hubby shopping for wife, junior league shopping for future inductee, kids shopping for mom or high school boyfriend for their sweetheart. They've got everything from shoes and purses, to cards and collectibles, to stationary and photo books. And thats not it! Scarves, jewelry, home decor, precious moments, jim shore, religious stuff, the famed painted ponies, clever cowboy chic things, kitchen ware, trendy wallets, etc. and so on. I was in there today and walked out with way too many things... but all of them precious and perfect. Hit them during a sale and you'll go crazy (hint hint: After christmas!) in the very best way.

Nice store with souvenirs, travel necessities, snacks, food, coffees, etc…read more A nice addition, and the only option other than Coffee Zone for food in the Terminal. The prices are airport "precio de gringo" high, but if you forgot to eat before getting to the airport, it's an option. The food is good, just pricy. $3.49 for a small bottle of water or soda. More for other drinks. The Terminal does have a water fountain should you trust city water and airport cleanliness.

I've seen the commercials for Edible Arrangements and was waiting for an appropriate time to order…read moresomething from them. Loved one was in the hospital, a couple family members wanted me to pick something up for her, so I suggested we all go in on an Edible Arrangement. You can't just go in a pick something up, like you sometimes can with a florist. You have to order it ahead of time. Fortunately, I was able to order and pick up in about an hour. It was fantastically speedy. After a touch of confusion about the timing of the order, I arrived just before closing time. I was greeted by a very jovial, kind of hilarious dude. He commented on my shirt (my Flight of the Conchords concert t) and questioned me about my name. He was highly amused by my saying that, "my name is American Indian, but I'm about as white as they come." I'd paid on the phone earlier, so the transaction was pretty effortless and the guy helped me carry it out to the car. It was beautiful (posting a picture here) and HUGE, but kind of spendy. Hence the four instead of five stars. I think my loved one may have been the hospital nurses favorite patient because of the tasty, beautiful fruit in which they got to indulge!
