If they re-wrote this song for my Mom, surely included on her list would be jewelry and books.
Today we went into the city with my friend and neighbor, Padmaja, to visit Blossom Books, a used book store. We passed by this street book vendor on our way...
Then it was on to Blossom... 2 levels of used books - great prices...Mom loved browsing, and bought several books...
Padmaja was born and raised in Bombay, so she knows her way around the streets of India. A trip to the city with her is always an adventure. I like to have the driver drop me right at the store front... she prefers to walk the streets! Mom went right along, like a pro...
She took us to one of her favorite local shops, where we got the "carpet talk". Mom almost fell over when they told her this carpet cost $5,000 USD...
She settled for a much less expensive, but equally beautiful and unique ring instead. Padmaja made sure she got the absolute best discount price!
So Mom had another great afternoon, full of a few of her favorite things!
