One of my favorite stores to browse is a paper store.

I like arts and crafts, even if I have zero creativity in that field... Not even enough to make a big shiny ball out of the things I like in those places.

I love going to this Chinese (food, cooking utensils, spices, statues, toys, etc) warehouse downtown to see all the bizarre (to my westernized mind) things that are bottled up over there. Nothing like seeing starfish (or brains, pupae, eggs, etc) presoaked in ginger before being emersed in vinegar for several months and just sitting there in a jar, watching you. I'm being creative here, but I'm sure some combinations of what I've mentioned have been done.

Does visiting jewelry stores in order to see my gf squirm for a bit before leaving and settling for a waffle cone count?

Jam it back in, in the dark.
