Autoworks – The Man of the House had a tricky problem with his car.  The Autoworks team quickly diagnosed it and fixed it.  The car runs like a charm now.

Ferino’s Pizzeria – When we’re too tired to cook we get a large pepperoni and garlic pizza from Ferino’s.   It’s by far the best pizza place that I’ve ever eaten at.

Pane d’Amore Artisan Bakery –  I still make 99.9% of our bread.  But once in awhile it’s nice to try something new.  Last night’s multi-grain rolls were chewy and delightful.  I keep thinking about the lovely cakes and cookies that they were selling that I somehow managed to not buy.

Don’s Pharmacy – When I first moved to the Port Townsend area I went to another pharmacy.  After they tried to give me the wrong medicine the second time, and I had to talk to three different people to convince them that the pills they were dishing out were not what my doctor had prescribed, I decided a change was in order.   I made the switch to Don’s Pharmacy.  There’s no wait.  I get the right pills.  There’s a soda fountain.  What more could a gal want?

Swain’s – Port Townsend does not have a Target, Rite Aide or a Fred Meyer.  There would be protests should one of those businesses try to establish itself here.  (I am not kidding.)  What we do have is Swain’s.  When my hair dryer died a few months ago I prayed that Swains had a new one that I could buy.  If they didn’t I faced a long drive to Silverdale or Port Angeles.  Swain’s came through.
