hey, a sunbeam...

- coconut oil in massive bottles. get that stuff in bulk, it’s exactly the same as the overpriced shit from whole foods or w/e

- cool unique drinks like mango and lychee juice and coconut water with jelly. also limca and thums up, which are soooooo good. trust me.

- super cheap pretty jewelry. maybe not real gold and silver, but you’ll find the same types of bangles and chains that UO constantly rips off for muuuuch cheaper

- sometimes super cheap designer knockoff bags, if that’s your thing lol

- henna! I know there’s a lot of debate over whether this product can be used by non-brown people, but if for whatever reason you’re going to use it (please avoid traditional designs if ur not from a culture that uses it), do yourself a favor and buy yourself tubes of the paste from south asian markets. they’re usually really precise and easy to use, and unless you have an allergy to the plant, better for your skin than those sketchy artificial stick-on stencil messes they sell at hobby lobby or w/e

- henna hair dye too! and other nice hair products like neem oil

- maybe this is just our old local store, but ive seen many pirated (and non-pirated) copies of Bollywood movies on their shelves

- incense!! they usually have nice varieties and also cute holders and candles too

- obviously, there is also lots of great food and produce typically available. Asian desserts and snacks are really unique and fun to try, so check those out too

The shower in my hotel has a little cutout so you can turn it on before getting in.

I drew poppy outlines for my class to cut out - they look like they overlap but don’t.

The golf balls at the mini golf on this pier are biodegradable and fall into the sea at the 18th hole 

Our refrigerator has revolving levels so you can reach everything easily

This window that makes my back yard look like it’s in 4 different seasons

The way this picture of a frozen puddle in my backyard looks like a landscape from the perspective of a plane.

My neighbors are moving their entire house back 200ft.

This door in my hotel bathroom can close off either of 2 doorways.

Our dog’s paw looks like a mini-version of him

You can see the number eight between the diamonds on this 8 card.

I made a piano shelf

This purely golden bee landed on my car today
