Do you have Trader Joe's where you live?
The chain recently opened a store in The Wilfair's neighborhood. They're using both a prehistoric tar pits mammoth -- at least I believe that's a mammoth and not a mastodon -- and the Farmers Market clocktower as the label artwork. Yeah, it's adorable.
It is also a testament to an interesting neighborhood; the Wilshire/Fairfax area boasts multiple go-to symbols. Yet another reason it was a natural fit for the Wilfair books, in my mind.
Also, whoopie pies, next to a cartoon mammoth? These are the everyday things that make me laugh.
What are the symbols of your city? Are they as hairy as a mammoth?
