Thankfully, our area was spared the blizzard that hit Nashville, Washington, D.C., New York and places in between. I did make a run to Freshway on Friday afternoon. Although I didn’t really need anything, I wanted to see how local people were reacting to the potential for bad weather. The parking lot was packed, and customers were bustling up and down the aisles collecting items for their buggies. The dairy department was still well-stocked with milk products, but the bread aisle was decimated, and stock clerks were moving a huge pallet of bottled water into the beverage aisle. It is always better to be safe than sorry, but now that our area is safe from a Snowpocalypse, it is funny to look back at Friday’s scene of mass hysteria and laugh about it. My Facebook newsfeed is full of satirical memes this weekend, including a still-life of a loaf of bread, a gallon of milk, and a roll of toilet paper. You just have love Southerners and our reaction to even a hint of snowy weather! The sun is shining today, and the temperature now is 46 degrees – warm enough for my son’s soccer team to hold practice. So, off we go.

I hope all of you get an opportunity to get outside and enough the sun today, too. Have a great Sunday, and we’ll see you Wednesday at the Market.

Thanks,

Beverly
