The things we carry
To get from the Union Square farmer's market to my house involves a near vertical climb to the summit of Highland Avenue. (Just like tackling K-2, minus the treacherous weather conditions and high injury rate.) I love the exercise — but unfortunately, my lack of coordination turns juggling heirloom tomatoes, beets, goat cheese, bread, and assorted other treats on the walk home into an impromptu sketch comedy.
Thankfully, Crate & Barrel has my number:

Yes, this is a decidedly hipper (and, at $49.95, more expensive) version of the carry cart we bought my grandma last summer — but think about how many times and ways you could use this waterproof, lime green trolley. Trip to Market Basket? Check. Stationery binge at Paper Source? Check.
See, I'm already on a roll.
