Saying goodbye is always hard
What do you see when you look inside your refrigerator or pantry? If you’re like most people, you’ll see shelves stocked with food and an endless combination of ingredients perfect for throwing a good meal together… and yet, find yourself complaining, “There’s nothing to eat!” What if your shelves were empty?

I remember how I ended up making this meal the first time – I read the recipe from a food magazine that was lying around in the employee break room at Newport Avenue Market.

In San Francisco, it’s amazing what one block will do. It’s the difference between sleeping soundly in a comfy hotel bed or being awakened at 3 a.m. by rappers and a one-person street protest. The one block differential also means that garbage trucks come lumbering by at 4 a.m. Beep. Beep. Beep. Who doesn’t love […]
Whoosh! We are back from round one of our whirlwind tradeshow circuit. Our feet are tired, our brains are hopped up on copious amounts of caffeine and the shelves at Newport Avenue Market are full of our newest finds. Here are a few of our favorites that we think you’ll love: UGLY DOLL These plush […]
Imagine walking down the sidewalk on a sunny day. You wave at the neighbor kids, who appear to have set up a fusion lemonade-macaroon-taco stand. It looks pretty dang cool, so you head over to take a look. Now, imagine that instead of sunshine, it’s fluorescent overhead lights. Instead of a sidewalk, you are being […]
We live in a time of tremendous abundance, of unlimited possibilities, of heartfelt compassion. Giving, helping others, is one of the greatest collective capabilities of mankind! November was a time to celebrate the goodness of life, a time to give thanks. December is our chance to simply give.
