If you've been to Williamsburg, Brooklyn you probably have passed by or even dared to go into Scandinavian Grace, a store/cafe of Scandie treasures. This weekend my partner, Debra, and I with our friends Judy and Spyro, went to the Hudson River Valley for a weekened getaway. Our second day there we went out for a little road trip when we happened upon an oasis, as far as I'm concerned, another Scandinavian Grace in the middle of the Catskills. After of hours of quaint cuteness and buggy nature, it was a small pleasurable relief to peruse this Scandie treasure on the side of the road. The staff or owner was a bit aloof and made no attempt to speak to us, even though aside from two peeps sitting at the cafe counter we were the only ones there he might have wanted to interest us in a purchase. Even the the service was jerky I still recommend going in for a cruise of giant space with lovely finds and lots of Marimekko, oh and the very special (but itchy) beard caps (picture above) by Vik Prjonsdottir.
