by Alissa Firestone and Kelsey Pease
Tucked away on the top floor of a cooking supply store, Goods for Cooks, is a true example of the magical and unique treasures you can find in Bloomington’s busy hub, Kirkwood Ave. Scott Kellogg Tarot began all with just a single deck of cards that was given to his wife, Karen Knight, as a gift. This deck didn’t mean much to either of them, until, Kellogg decided to take a deeper dive into the world of Tarot.
It was 1988, when he happened upon this deck of Tarot cards at his wife’s house. He began looking through the cards and observing each piece of art, noticing that there were some similar to Dungeons and Dragons, a game he had been playing since 8. It was at this very moment, Kellogg had become instantly fascinated. He …

She Will She Will Rock You
How one senior climbed her way from low to pro
To keep the muscles vital for climbing in shape, Makenna makes use of her surroundings by climbing trees or biking on local paths. “Usually every other day I do arm or endurance workouts to build my strength,” Sisemore said.
Since she was 10 years old, senior Makenna Sisemore has been rock climbing and it all began with an intriguing read in grade school.

What We Got Out of the Shadows
This morning, the HSJI PR team had the opportunity to shadow a pro in the field of Public Relations.
