I went to the grocery store on Monday. With the impending snow/blizzard/snowmageddon and Thanksgiving all in the same week, the store was packed. In fact, as I went to check out, the line to the cash registers snaked across the front and around to the back of the store. The line moved fairly quickly and people were friendly. I didn't pick up all that I needed simply because I didn't want to get out of line again, but I was grateful for the abundance of food in my cart and on the shelves. It is not this way throughout the world
