Holy Grocery Store, Batman!
ByWell, this morning after I dropped Chloe off at preschool, I decided to check out the new Market District Giant Eagle. It is honking huge. Now, I just needed a few essentials, and I only had a little bit of time. But this is a place where you could spend hours and hours. First I headed towards the Citizens Bank to the banking for the restaurant. Not so lucky there…it doesn’t open until 10:00. So, I meandered a bit. I walked past the seafood counter. Want fresh frog legs? No problem. They have every kind of meat and seafood you can imagine. The bakery just looked fantastic. I didn’t play too much in the restaurant area, because I was pushing a cart. But it looked way cool.
It took me some time to find the things I ACTUALLY needed, but it would have taken me time in any grocery store that I was in for the first time. I found what I needed, held back my desire to plop myself down with coffee and a book, and headed out. For 9:00 in the morning, that place was pretty darn busy.
You may have read yesterday that I finished the daily to-do list. I think I will finish today’s, also. Just one problem, though…three of our waitresses called off for the night. Out of five. Jinkies. I’m scrambling to get shifts covered.
I haven’t waited on a table in seven years.
Please, God, don’t make me have to go in there and play waitress. I don’t think I have the energy.
