Home was anywhere with diesel gas.

On cold winter nights, we find ourselves at Fred Meyer (technically Smith's Marketplace now) more and more often. There is something comforting about its gigantic candy aisle and bright fluorescent lights that make it seem like the best thing to do when it's chilly and you're low on cash.

The other customers are just a bonus. Carmen and Jason were buying groceries for their hotel rooms while they were in town performing with... Riverdance! I've never seen Riverdance, but I've heard a lot of jokes about it. Clearly, its perfomers are attractive.

Carmen, from Spain, wore a cozy Alpaca wool sweater. She said that she wanted to be back in Spain in time for spring to get new clothes.

Jason, from the Bronx, wore a camel hair coat with a suede cummerbund. He said that he wanted to look good for the airport, and that he wanted to wear slim-fitting, colorful flat-front pants this spring. Salt Lake residents should take note of Jason's advice – he clearly knows what he's talking about!

I thought Jason's shoes were great, but I hope he has a different pair for snowy days like today. As for Carmen, well, she's set to look good and stay warm.

Always,

SLC pomp
