Shopping, not eating.But still important

Okay, this posting isn't about food, it's about shopping, something I don't usually write about. But, this new store in downtown Durham, called Vert&Vogue is just super cool.

It just happens, that I had eaten at 1 of the restaurants in Brightleaf Square and decided to just take a stroll. I was delighted to find this new gem of a store.

First of all, they have very fashionable items, especially shoes, that you won't find anywhere else. Secondly, all the materials are good quality and vegan! So, if fashion and vegetarianism are important to you, you have to stop by.

Only down side is that is a tad pricey. I did find some very nice soft cotton t-shirts for just $10, which was very reasonable. The service there is also excellent.

PF Changs - great GF menu

I usually don't like "chain restaurants", but since I've been gluten free, I appreciate that PF Chang's has a gluten free menu & it offers a broad selection. I think it's very thoughtful of them to do so! Plus, it's really yummy.

Actually, the other day, I was craving Moe's, but their entire list of offerings has gluten in it. I was also surprised that even their meats have soy added to them. Perhaps it's just soy oil and not actual soy.
