Aldi

We Aldi grocery store shoppers are a die-hard bunch.  This is the second time in my shopping life that there is an Aldi in my ‘neighborhood’.  Decades ago when I entered one, once, I said never again.  But it is not the same store.  Anyone who asks, and many who don’t get my marketing spiel …

The Best

Such a wonderful time in the City with T & C who came to binge on Broadway shows.  It is so true, everyone comes to New York and I love when we have time to spend together.  These long friendships are so jam-packed with history/memories/stories and caring.  They ! are the best.  While there, saw …
