Some think nanos & skirt lifts are "geospew," but in a snowy urban neighborhood it's hard to place anything else, and to make it a bit more challenging, a simple puzzle.

At the listed coordinates you will find my favorite specialty grocer.


This store has a veritable cornucopia of products from the region of Italy which includes Naples, Pompeii, Vesuvius, Capri and the Amalfi Coast.
It's difficult to get out of the store without filling a cart with the goodies there., but you can score a smilie if you solve this simple puzzle

.

ABC is a 3 digit number associated with that region, which the Romans called campania felix.

DEF is a 3 digit number associated with the Goddess of Luck, Abundance & Prosperity who is also the guardian of the Cornucopia.

Good luck - BYOP
