Deciding toward the end of my trip that I would grab a couple standard souvenirs for myself and the folks back home, I figured a quick stop into this store would do just the trick. And that it did. An unexpectedly large store, this location offers every kind of cheap souvenir (if only in price) that a tourist could need. I browsed walls, shelves, and racks of t-shirts, hats, paperweights, pens, snow globes, picture frames, magnets, key chains, ornaments, postcards, books, and the like. Besides this usual merchandise, the store also carries non-NY-focused products highlighting cartoon characters such as the Simpsons, etc. Marveling at the sheer number of items available, it took some time to finally locate my desired items at an acceptable price. Spending about $25, I walked away with a keychain/bottle opener, shot glass, ornament, and a decent sized snowglobe with the city skyline. The cashier worked efficiently and quickly boxed up my fragile items for the trip home. Certainly not the deal of the century but I knew what I was in store for and got what I needed.

The store has a really good selection and it's well-organized. I bought a beautiful coffee mug and two unusually-nice fridge magnets (seriously, they're beautiful and not at all "run-of-the-mill"). The people working there were friendly and the youngish guy was also very helpful.

I was 23 and I didn't want the walls of my first crib to be bare or covered in corniness. The artwork that I purchased from this beautiful place turned my little spot into a real showplace. Faith sells gorgeous paintings, calendars and yearly planners that are drawn and painted by a variety of talented Black artist's. They also sell very cool Black History pieces, like copies of The Emancipation Proclamation. Faith Art Gallery does custom framing as well. It's a beautiful place, a part of this woman's Black History and I'm hopeful that they'll be around for decades to come.

There's a spot in Brooklyn on Pitkin Ave where a few homes are extravagantly decorated for Christmas. Not in the Clark Griswald sense of extravagantly decorated, but attention to the smallest little detail, as with the lamppost on the corner within the snowy winer little town setting. There's something about figurines that enchants the inner child in me and my heart flutters as my eyes are mesmerized scanning the little street with the sled repair shop business, the bakery and the chocolatier with the rotating gears that pop out beautiful little chocolates. I love trees and lights, stockings and ornaments but the little towns people doing little pre Christmas things - in these Rockerll-esq scenes, I dare say that my Christmas would be incomplete without. So the spot in Brooklyn is no longer operational, I banged a right on Crossbay like I'd done in years past, and drove until the lights hit, but there were no lights, there was nothing. An online search revealed it (the ornamentally appointed homes) were no more, it vanished, it was all over. But you basically sat in your car and "oooohhh-ed" and "aaaahhh-ef" until done jackhole blared his horn,l. It was over crowded but a testiment to the folks that put it all together. So I typed in "Christmas" into Yelp and bang, 3 miles away was the Christmas Store. It was in an area I knew well, somehow it's eluded me as it's been in business for years, it was the old piano manufacturer. A look inside and your immediately greeted by tens of thousands of ornamental displays, this Christmas wonderland was chiming the song "down the chimney with ole St Nick" The owner and I spoke, he had great cheer and has a wonderful eye for placement. I initially commented to him on the magnificence of the garlands and floating wreaths. The shop is giant and full, old wooden boards creeking under your feet as your looking around, ho upstairs, it gets better! Big Nutcracker soldiers and Santa in his sleigh reading the little letters. Snowman, snowflakes, pinecones, silver bells and bugles. Organize organically with like creatures and like trees and I took a video of the little towns which il attempt to post now to get y'all excited about Christmas 2025. I could write on and on and I'm withholding temptation not too. Happy New Year Everyone
