We sell candy and nuts, and started a popular 'dollar bin' promotion. It began when we found a big stash of Christmas goodies in May - and, well, May isn't exactly peppermint season. So our marketing manager, Adam Walsh, proposed that we put it out for a dollar. It was a hit. Now we pull out the bin whenever we have product we want to move quickly. Everything is clearly labeled if it's near the best-by date or a little broken - kind of like a scratch-and-dent sale, but for candy.

If you were rightfully disappointed by last year's Emilia Pérez, I'd like to point you toward Pedro Almodóvar's Oscar-snagging '99 melodrama, which follows the stories of a trans sex worker, a grieving mother, and a pregnant, HIV-positive nun.

The Ivy at Berkeley, a new 88-unit senior apartment building, with 24 memory care units, at 2501 Milvia St., held a grand opening this week.
