FRESH YARN PRESENTS:

EXCERPT FROM
À la Cart: The Secret Lives of Grocery Shoppers

By Hillary Carlip

This is me...

So is this.

Watch this fun-filled 3 minutes-ish movie that tells all about À la Cart!

Or if you'd rather just read a quick explanation, here goes:

Hillary Carlip has taken real, found shopping lists, and transformed herself into the imagined authors by being photographed as 26 different characters who vary in age, gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, even facial hairstyles, and writing unforgettable stories about each.

On the next page, you'll meet PAMMY. You'll see the ACTUAL FOUND SHOPPING LIST, then the pic of me as who I imagined the list belonged to, then a short little story about Pammy.
