Whimsy and Wonder #62- Vending Machines

 

I'm sure I've mentioned Pix-O-Matic, the 24-hour dessert vending machine, before.
 


 
 
It currently has a temporary companion with Gastro Obscura's "World's Most Unusual Vending Machine."
 
 
 

I decided to check it out and see what they were offering. Fortunately for my wallet, there wasn't anything that caught my eye.

Whimsy and Wonder #61- Just Walking Around (Eighteen)

The day started out so wonderfully. I was enjoying a long walk to work on a sunny autumn day listening to a great audiobook. I was feeling confident and there were a couple of whimsy and wonder sights along the way. The world (at least, my world) seemed full of possibilities.

Whimsy and Wonder #60- Small Wonder

Sometimes it's the day itself that's the whimsy and wonder...

With a surprisingly sunny fall day, I couldn't help but treat myself to some delightful donuts from Pip's Original. I got their seasonal sweet potato pie flavor and also Nutella and peanut butter. For my drink, I got the King & I.

I love hearing their customers' excitement when it's their first time experiencing it or claiming their very generous birthday dozen which I've definitely taken part in over the years and I try to go other times throughout the year to support them.

What's brought you whimsy and wonder in life recently?

Whimsy and Wonder #59- Just Walking Around (Seventeen)

I love it when a Little Free Library matches the design of the main structure whether it's a house, a school, or something else. In this case, it's the Gresham History Museum which originally housed the Gresham Carnegie Library.

I think it would be cool if all the repurposed Carnegie libraries (as in they were once but aren't anymore) had a little free library in front as sort of a commemoration.
