Happy Souvenir Sunday!
When I’m stuck at the airport, I poke around for fun “of that city” souvenirs.
My rules:
1. No shot glasses or t-shirts.
2. Cost: less than $10.
3. Nothing generic or simply stamped with the city name. (See rule 1).
So while these Alcatraz shot-glasses with the escaping prisoner were sort of cute, I had to pass them by.
Ditto with “The Governator” t-shirt.
I’d thought I’d hit pay dirt with the Scharffen Berger candy bars, but it seems that this locally-grown company is now owned by Hershey and the chocolates are now being made in ….Illinois.
So, I had to fall back on an old, but tasty, standard: sourdough bread.
Found a great airport souvenir? Let me know: maybe I’ll feature your find on a future Souvenir Sunday!
