Coffee garden

 

 The placement of the garden center was always a little bit odd, but at least it originally had the floral department nicely integrated so it wasn't completely alone. Well, now it's even weirder, with the shelves of fertilizer stuck right in between the coffee kiosk and the to-go food counter. Yes, I intentionally phrased that to make it sound even weirder than it really is... but it's still weird! Interestingly, the Starbucks kiosk itself appears to be the exact same one that was formerly around the corner, just moved over here to provide a big new seating area... which, of course, would have only seen a few months of use before being shut down due to COVID. (I have to wonder if it was really popular enough to warrant expansion even before COVID, since I've yet to see a busy in-store seating area anywhere... but that's a different story. I know that in some parts of the country, these things can be very popular, but around here it seems like people would rather take their coffee and food to go than eat in a grocery store.)
