Make it to go!

Mon., March 16, 2020

I’m a germaphobe. I was one even before I knew what a coronavirus was!

But I’m also a patriot and I’m not willing to let local small businesses fail because of this novel virus. If you have a favorite restaurant, coffee shop, pub or deli, now is the time to show your loyalty. Maybe sitting in a crowded restaurant is not a good idea but requesting take-out food could keep these local retailers afloat until the crisis is over. You may even be able to pay over the phone or online.

Grab your food, drop a nice tip and go! We are all in this together!
