Sunday The Otter and I enjoyed a leisurely brunch at Gee Cee’s. Tuesday I brought home all the pineapple juice on the shelves at Toledo’s Market Fresh* (supposed to be better than OTC cough remedies and tastier). Wednesday found me stopping in at Alpine Chiro to ease my cough-wracked ribcage, then Chimi’s Family Restaurant where they cater to my specific food allergy and always greet me with a smile. Once a month, I fill up the Ford at Riverview NAPA, seldom more because most needs are within one tank radius. Buying local saves time, builds relationships, and represents the pulse of a community.
