Cheese Junkies Closes Yakima Restaurant; Switching to a Food Truck-Only Business
Cheese Junkies Closes Yakima Restaurant; Switching to a Food Truck-Only Business. I have been wondering what's the tea with why the reader board at the new Cheese Junkies restaurant has been empty lately. They just opened up shop a few months ago in the old Meraki Creations restaurant spot at 1508 Summitview Ave, which is formerly Sweet Bee's Restaurant (now located at 601 Fruitvale Blvd), which was Lutong Pinoy restaurant, which, you guessed it, was formerly the home of yet another restaurant!

Did You Know There’s a Statue of Johnny Depp in Kennewick?
I've been a Johnny Depp fan since I was eleven years old. There was a movie rental store that was closing when I was a kid and my parents took advantage of their "buy one, get one" blowout sale. They picked up a lot of movies that would become lifelong favorites of mine such as The Last Samurai with Tom Cruise, and Master and Commander: Far Side of the World starring Russell Crowe, but one movie would become an essential part of my childhood. I'm talking about Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl, of course.

Scary Encounter at the Richland Walmart
While shopping at Walmart, early Saturday morning, a good friend of mine (she has asked to remain anonymous, so we will call her Jane) had a very frightening experience and I feel compelled to warn others. Jane had just finished with her CrossFit class and was still dressed in her workout clothing (probably more revealing than a normal shopping day outfit). She had to make a quick trip to Walmart before she started her workday. As she shopped she noticed an older man following her and watching her closely. She described her experience as hair-raising because the hair on the back of her neck was standing up. The store was empty, due to the early morning hours so she felt alone and a bit nervous.
