Rememberance of Things Past.

Well as you no doubt know, I have been out of action the last few days and staying close to home. The last couple of days I have been walking a little to get the circulation going in my leg. So I walked to the store from my house which is about four blocks.

As I was toodling along with my cane people would come out of the stores and restaurants on Court St. Now the guys in Good Food knew all about it and call me every day to see if I need a sandwich or anything delivered. I did all of my shopping this week by phone and they delivered right to my door. One of my clients arranged for Fresh Direct to drop off meals for a couple of days which was pretty cool and totally unexpected.

But the restaurant guys were the best. As I passed the owner would come out and asked what was up. I would tell him about it and they would go "Let me know what you need and we will send it right over. Anything you want."

But the most interesting was the people who own the Thai restaurant. We decided to get take out and we went around the corner right at closing. One of the owners was sitting out at the front instead of being in the kitchen. He goes "You sit right down and eat now on the house. You want any food I have them bring to you....No plastic....in dish just like restaurant."

You see he knew we lived around the corner and wanted to deliver the food on the actual restaurant dishes so it we be hot and delicious instead of waiting to put it in the plastic take out containers. That was touching to say the least.

Just goes to show you if you treat people right you will get it back when you need it.

Remember that the next time you order a bagel.
