My first reaction was why is this sweet cat outside? Then I went to the next question what is she looking at? Well the answer was somewhat easy. Under the new World Order we stand in line for everything.

One of my favorite stores used to be owned by a Japanese investment group sold about eight or ten years ago to a Chinese investment group. Mitzuwa has the same managers, same staff and ironically now they lable their sashimi as well as their vegetables where they are from. Times have changed, just to be clear I am grateful for labeling the food. Many of us might not want to buy something form China, just sayin.

I have no clue what that cat is looking at or for, Endre... cats are mysterious creastures, often with their own agendas... but that is what I love about them!

Ah, perhaps the cat was waiting for people coming OUT of the store, just in case they dropped some fish bits.

Good morning Endre Barath, Jr., I was a little kid when martial law was announced in Turkey, I remember adults standing in line for everything, different days for different items. Not good at all. The cat is probably trying to figure out what the line is for. As always, the food looks delicious!

Endre,

Luckily we do not have to stand in line here.  That cat is thinking about how humans make a big deal of everything...and I am super careful and ask where is this product coming from.  I noticed that most of the time that on clothing and shoes the country of origin is usually mentioned, or it says imported!  That is the give away.  Our neighbor sent a pair of shoes back when she saw they were made in China, with the note to Neiman Marcus, saying "Are you kidding me?"   LOL A

Given the food looks so great, surprised the line was not longer and the kitty didn't have trick or two up its paw to cut in line. cheers cvc

Okay, my mouth is watering now, Endre! YUM! You know I love sashimi and that looks ever so fresh. Now, that's one smart cat, just waiting for someone to spill some fresh fish!

I had to share - we have the same lazy susan spice rack!

Well you sure took me on a journey first with the cute cat and then the long lines. I get the why of standing in line Endre Barath, Jr. your results look amazing. What's with the long lines.....can they only have a few at a time in the shop?  Sounds so Californian these days. Bummer.

Endre,

Neiman Marcus is out of bankruptcy and into reorganization.  The bankruptcy is a result in my commercial real estate opinion of too many stores opened.  The pandemic pushed it further.  And in luxury goods there has been a lot of changes in values, and the luxury industry did not take note...A

Ron and Alexandra Seigel  interesting perspective, mine is more along the lines of not being able to sit at the wine bar have a few drink and buy 'luxury items' must have don't needs.... can not tell you how many clients I met at the wine bar and we were  watching 'has been A-listers' trying to show off that they are still relevant by flipping through 100 dollar bills and then paying with the Black American Express card to let everyone know who they are:))Endre

Endre - Have you ever seen the old John Travolta movie titled, "Michael"?  If not, you would likely enjoy it.  "Michael" claims to be the arch angel of standing in line.  He said before then everyone was just running around in a chaotic way.
