Wegmans. Last Friday And This Friday.

Last Friday, Dave and I woke up early to head to the food store to see what we could get. We had heard that the Northborough Wegmans (our usual one) was super crowded (at 6:30am) and pretty much empty so we decided to head to the one in Natick. We arrived and were pretty shocked to find a fair amount of stuff (and stuff that we usually buy no less) still available and a fairly peaceful store too. 


 Our cart, last Friday, full of all the items we buy weekly! We were beyond excited about this!


Since we did so well at the Natick store last Friday we decided to do our weekly shopping again today. Not knowing what to expect we didn't make a menu or a list. And once again the store was quiet and the selection was good. Unless, of course you wanted chocolate chips, that is. 
 Clearly, people planned to do a lot of baking this past week and next!
 We discovered a very big change (that wasn't present the week before) once we arrived at the registers. There are now lines on the floor and you cannot approach until the belt has been sanitized/wiped down.  
Hmmmm....wonder what we'll discover next Friday when we head back?
As our first week of social distancing draws to a close we hope that you all are finding the blessings in the chaos. We are really loving the quieter/slower pace of the world (though we miss things like dance, the library and church). It is our sincere hope that when this is all said and done that the world stays a more peaceful, kind place. The kindness that everyone is showing is truly remarkable and such a joy to behold. We love that Mother Nature is having a chance to heal during this time too. It's as if the higher powers (whatever you perceieve them to be) finally got sick of the behavior down here and decided to put us all in a time out. And really, it was way overdue (the time-out, not the pandemic). xo
