Pastries for Pets
Everyone loves baked goods, even your pets! KRQE did a great piece about how former Las Vegas real estate agent Daphne Wright opened the Pooch Pantry, Bakery and Boutique in Santa Fe. The store’s specialty is baked goods for pets, a topic Daphne became interested in after two of her dogs developed diabetes. I’m sure you’re wondering, so the answer is yes: the treats are all natural and delicious for people too!

Vintage Around the World
Shopping for vintage clothing isn’t just popular in the
United States. Peggy Loh of Malaysian newspaper New Straits Times writes about how 1950s fashion styles and fabrics are becoming popular again in
the southeast Asian country.
