Nova Scotia. I think I see some familiar faces here...still preoccupied with Springsteen, life, the universe and everything. Feminism. Health both public and reproductive. Covid ain't over.

Tories are all upset because, after years of bumper stickers and flags, it was Katy Perry who achieved their dreams.

I see what you did there!

But I also think Classified's "Work Away" fits with the reality for a lot of families .

WE BOUGHT WHIPPET COOKIES AND FULL PRICE OKA Cheese. I would pretty much never buy that on my own.

Adam Baldwin has that...."Gerald Burgess Racetrac Full Serve Autobody" which may be a bit obscure?

Same deal here!! ( Shopping with The Mister felt like shopping with a toddler, he picked up so many things that were NOT on my list.)

We love it. And were so excited to see the selection they had in Timberlea.

Was there any warning of that broken bridge in the bottom left hand picture ?

It was a good sale, it is 12 dollars more expensive at our Chester Foodland, than the Sobeys sale price.

You betcha! ( we bought Lays chips because they were on sale)

We just hot back from a delightful time at the Timberlea Sobey's (the Mister came with me, which he rarely does) it was fairly empty, although we did the old people thing and kept leaving our cart in the way.

A grocery store aisle with a cart in the foreground and a man looking at bags of chips, halfway down the aisle and two people at the end.

We tend to worry about being a bother a lot. That is a tough barrier to climb over. I have found when I do, there is someone who is eager and happy to help, but dint know help was needed.

Clouds, buildings ?

Catherine in Chester @chestercat.bsky.social · 1d

Yup that does sound like she is bouncing back.

Catherine in Chester @chestercat.bsky.social · 1d

This sounds......good, I guess?

Catherine in Chester @chestercat.bsky.social · 1d

Exactly what Sarah says.

Catherine in Chester @chestercat.bsky.social · 1d

I think a mixed neighborhood would be so lovely. Chester right now seems to skew fairly old. When we moved here in 1997, there were 4 -5 kids on the block. Now there are none.

When our boy played hockey, one of his teammates lived in the condos, and he was the only kid in the more than 50 units in the complex.

Catherine in Chester @chestercat.bsky.social · 2d

Originally it was just 55+, now I think the youngest people in the complex are 65+

Catherine in Chester @chestercat.bsky.social · 2d

Our condo complex is a mix of two
storey, townhomes close to the golf course, with only a handful that are only one level.

And what the heck? How can this 2.99 for a can if salty cindensed soup be a sale price (i never buy these anymore)

Two cans of campbell's soup listed for 2.99 each. On the left is a can of tomato soup, the right is condensed cream if chicken.

I am being a normal adult and making up a grocery list using the flyers for a change.. Did pocket friends who still buy Quality Street, notice that Sobeys has it on for 15.99 this weekend? It is currently offered at 20 freaking 7 at our Foodland.
