inconsequential market gossip

The renovations have begun at the Market and Chou at Bayou on 1st has been very excited about it. She hasn't been able to have a deep fryer because the roof of the Sanitary Building has been unsafe for getting up and cleaning the kitchen exhaust vents. Now the PDA will have the roof remodeled and she can get a fryer. She's going to redo her menu and has started designing a website for the restaurant. She's photographing all the menu items, so today she used my lunch as the model for the No. 3 Combo - grilled salmon, vinaigrette on mixed greens, and red beans with rice.

I haven't seen Dog Mafia in the Market for some time and found out why, from this fellow who's name I didn't catch. I thought it might be David McKesson but he seems different, shorter, and his old dog wasn't there. It sounded like him, though. He is the last one playing the Market. I included a picture of him from a couple of years ago with the old dog, and playing with Dog Mafia around the same time. Maybe someone can tell me. The lead guy who pulled the group together finally married his sweetheart and moved to Indiana. I feel lucky to have gotten a couple of CDs before they disbanded, they were really good.

One day I left my wallet on a table outside Three Girls Bakery, after shopping at the Creamery. Before I even got back to the office, David at the Bakery had gotten my business card and called there to let me know. When I went back to get it, everyone around, at the fruit stand and everywhere, asked me about it. It's nice to be known.
