New things to offer from Berkeley, CA:

I just found out that Berkeley is the home of many things. I've listed a few in my first post, but more:
1. It is the home of Peet's Coffee! Just a few miles away from where I live is the original coffeehouse. Now I add Peet's coffee to the original California goods, like Scharffenberger chocolate (the factory is actually IN Berkeley) and Berkeley Bowl.
2. Also, I love shopping at the Japanese bookstore and markets, so I also add Japanese stuffs to my list of things to offer. Of course, I can't get exactly get the same things as you can in Japan, but I can still offer some stuff.
3. Finally, I feel like Berkeley is a little India, and I love eating at the Chaat House next to the Indian grocery. If there are any spices and such that you would like, let me know the exact name, and maybe I can ask the Indian grocery if they carry it!

It´s fun to find a bunch of comments when you sign in to your blog - thank you! If anyone wonders about doing a swap with Charlene - go for it! She´s a great swapping partner, ask me, and I can vouch for it!
