    rethink the textures

    The overall layout and balance is good, but I don't see how the paper bag textures fit with the company. Also, I think there are too many different textures - 1 for the nav, 1 for the right nav, 1 for the main text, 1 for the section titles, and 1 for the footer. Regardless of what texture you decide to use for the main text, I think the images and ads could either use a subtle drop shadow or a border.

    I think the logo and the shopping list are competing for dominance so I'd consider moving the shopping list so the logo can dominate the top and be the focal point.
