I love going into Pippins to browse... they have such lovely stuff! Some of my favourites are the fish-shaped gurgle jug, the aprons that look like cute party dresses, and the Fraktals chocolates are to die for! I've also bought a thing for baking brie cheese in, and a multi-level cookie display stand...and oh yeah! there's a ton of loose leaf teas to choose from! My favourite way of choosing is to have a cup to go! For $2 you can't go wrong, and definately a mile higher than any other place for a takeout tea!
The ladies that work there are lovely too, and very helpful and friendly. I always leave smiling!
