Most of the Park Slope bodegas started stocking items like San Pellegrino when they realized that one expensive bottle of water costs as much as many Budweisers. The green bottles make a better window display, too. I’m happy when I can go into a corner store and buy whole wheat bread and plantain chips.

I was in a bodega, and an old guy was paying for beer with these Kennedy half dollars. I asked if I could buy them from him, and he said sure. He got his Buds and I have four “collectible” coins that I’m reluctant to spend which are worth face value, fifty cents each. So who got the better deal?

Beer and flowers together. Why not? I find the duct tape zigzagging down the window like Frankenstein’s scar sort of interrupts the festiveness of the picture, though.
