There is a Super Target with a full grocery store halfway between my house and the barn. I shop there a lot because, well, it has a full grocery store and is halfway between my house and the barn.
I couple days ago, I was walking through the Target parking lot, when a fluttering piece of paper caught my eye. I don't make a habit of scooping up parking lot trash, but something about it caught my attention.
I picked it up and realized immediately that it was the leftover backing of a die cut sticker. Then I turned it over.I know that name!
That's Kristen Cermele!
I immediately thought, "Heather's been here!" but she says no. She hasn't shopped at that Target in ages, and she's never owned a Mushu sticker. I also checked with Kristen, who said Mushu wasn't available at any of the Denver BreyerWests and hasn't been her biggest seller. I kind hope this post will identify the litterbug former owner, but at the same time, I kind of hope it remains a mystery. Somethings don't require explanation. That was a wonderfully serendipitous moment in the Target parking lot!

Serendipitous but misspelled. Ingido should be tossed: parking lot trash indeed. But it doesn't explain the Mushu. I'm left just as mystified.
ReplyDeleteIt occurred to me last night that like Mushu, Target's mascot, Bullseye, is also a bull terrier. It's possible this has everything to do with that, and no model horse people are involved. Maybe?
ReplyDeleteMaybe, though that wouldn't really explain her (albeit misspelled) website URL and her name on it
DeleteBoth my kids worked at Target during various points in their lives, and Bullseye is kind of a thing. I guess I was just thinking that someone might have googled, "bull terrier stickers" and landed on Kristen's website that way? It's a longshot but so is everything else about this.
