Real Food Daily

The first thing you will notice about the Real Food Daily (RFD) bathroom is the sign on the door. The women's is a long gold rectangle with a "W" on it, the men's is a long gold rectangle with an "M." God forbid if one of the signs is flipped over, or if one is practicing their yoga on the way to the restroom (as you may feel inclined to do at RFD,) and is on one's hands, you just may enter the wrong door! You should be okay if you know braille though. Well, still not if you're on your hands. Upon entering the restroom, you are greeted by a lovely orange color. Unfortunately it is five feet above your head where the white tile ends. There are paintings hanging on the orange portion of the wall, which makes for an interesting game whilst on the toilet. "What could those be? From this angle, it could be horses, or kitties..." This game is hard because the paintings are abstract.
We have to say, aside from the high, high wall decorations, we like the over all setup. There is a common mistake in bathroom layout, where when the bathroom is too small for more than one stall, they just put a toilet in the corner. This leaves we, the sitters, an uncomfortably large space to occupy. We then stare at the door, which is ten feet away, hoping the doorknob doesn't jiggle. When an establishment has done their thinking, like RFD, They just put a single stall in the bathroom. This is also useful if someone wants to wash their hands while someone else uses the stall, or if you must uphold girl tradition, and talk to someone while peeing. (Why? we honestly don't know. We have theories.)
The sink was round,deep,and unfortunately a little mildewy (eh, mine at home is too.) They offered two froo froo soaps that smelled, according to their labels,of "Fresh Lavender" and "Chamomile." We went for the Fresh Lavender. It was out. We tried "Chamomile." It was chamo-rific.

I felt like I was there, in that womens restroom. And it was divine. By the way, how did it smell? Was the lighting bright or dim? Too quiet, or did they pipe in a little music? Paper towels or those blow-y things?
I would like to visit this bathroom soon, so I may see the abstract kitties or ponies. Thank you for this review. It was very helpful.
This could be one of the greatest blogs ever on the planet earth. I mean, it is, but also it could be too...:)
