The Piggly Wiggly

August 15th, 2022

Tonight, we are having a small get-together.
Just my Brother and his Family.
And, I thought it’d be a good time for me to make a small Cheese Tray.
So, off to “The Pig,” I went.

Upon arriving, I grabbed a buggy.
A little old lady was pushing her buggy out the Double-Doors to the Buggy Area.
She speaks to me.
“If I’d been a little faster gettin’ out here, you could’a used my buggy,” she says with a smile. “I only have these two bags.”

“I’ll take your buggy for you, ma’am,” and she gets her two bags, and I take her buggy.

“God Bless You, Sir.”

“God Bless You too, Ma’am.”

I continue into the store.

The Piggly Wiggly in my area has a decent section for Meat and Cheese Trays.

I get some Peppered Hard Salami and Pepperoni Sticks and place them in my buggy.
I then go through the Cheeses that they have out on the shelf.
I decide on four different kinds of Cheese and place those in the buggy.
Next, I get a Jar of Olives stuffed with Garlic.
Then, a Jar of Sweet Gherkins and a Jar of Pickled Okra.
Next, I head to the Cracker Section.

At the Cracker Section, a lady desperately seeks a Specific Box of Crackers. She asks me to help. I begin helping.

“They’re out, ma’am. Here is the sticker on the shelf where it would be.”

“Oh, Shucks! Thank you for helping me, Sir.”

“Well, Ma’am, I sure could use your help now.”

“I’d be happy to help, Sir.”

“If you were making a Meat and Cheese Tray with these Meats and Cheeses, which Crackers would you get?”

“Oh, that’s easy!” and she grabs me four different boxes of Crackers.

“These!” and she places them in my buggy.

“Thank you, ma’am. You made it easy for me.”

“You’re welcome, and God Bless You, Sir!”

“God Bless You too, Ma’am!”

I love living in a small town.
