"Why doesn't somebody open a _____ in Central Phoenix?"
Fill in that blank for any kind of stylish indie business (especially anything food- and beverage-related), and I've wondered it aloud. For all the interesting things going on in CenPho these days, there's still room for plenty more.
Literally a day after I had a conversation about why somebody needs to open a cool candy boutique, I heard a rumor that somebody really is. It's called Smeeks.

But that's what you'll find at Smeeks, the newest edition to the CenPho cute shop roster. (To be fair, you'll also find a $2 AbbaZabba, but it's seriously worth it for the cute factor the place is steeped in.)
