My love of paper goods is no secret, and not since Swee Swee Paperie opened in West Seattle more than a year ago have I been so smitten with a local card shop. The new object of my affection is Paper Delights, a delightful new stationery and party shop in Wallingford.

At Max and Quinn's Atomic Boys Shop-O-Rama, it's highly possible that you'll find your
favorite childhood candy. The store is stocked with oldies but goodies
like Sky Bars, the aforementioned Candy Buttons (both 99cents ) and
bubblegum cigarettes (50 cents to $1.25), and each confection is
accompanied by a small sign that tells its history.

This weekend my nieces, ages 6 and almost 8, came to spend the night.
We had some time to kill before Gub's dad could join us for a trip to
the zoo, so I scanned the West Seattle Blog for ideas of what to do in our neighborhood, which led me to Max and Quinn's Atomic Boys Shop-O-Rama (4311 S.W. Admiral Way), a retro candy and toy shop in the Admiral District.

I've been a lifelong chocoholic. So, imagine my excitement when I learned that there was a (real-life) chocolate factory in Fremont. Instantly my mind filled with visions of Willy Wonka and his Oompa Loompas sailing down rivers of cocoa. While Theo Chocolate is far from fantasy, my recent visit to the United States' first roaster of fair-trade cocoa beans and the only organic chocolate factory in the nation was just as fantastic.
