Shopping at 168 on Valley Blvd.
I enjoy shopping at 168 for the peaceful Asian music - absent is the constant barking of advertisements like at Ranch 99, spacious aisles, vast product selection, and on a weekday afternoon - an empty store all to my exploring self. On the weekends, it transforms into a frenetic Asian outdoor market, though it’s indoors.
J1 is a great brand of aloe drink; the canned Honey Aloe drink I did not like as much; and the green tea ice cream bars are the best!


I see a lot of young asian women consuming aloe vera, is this another one of the good skin tactics?

Umm, not aloe vera. It’s drinking bird spit that makes our skin so nice.
