It comes as no surprise that these are trying times for all of us. As each day passes were confronted with an ever increasing list of new and creative challenges. For most of us, what was routine, is now a daily strategic blueprint. All the while, being told to stay inside, and away from public. We’ve begun asking ourselves, what will I do today? What will my KIDS do today? What do I eat and more importantly, how do I get it?
While these ARE new obstacles to overcome, it’s ok, really. Change is good (sometimes). Try to think of these as unique opportunities to learn something new. Read that book you’ve always wanted to, but haven’t had the time. SAVOY BOOK SHOP is offering online ordering, curbside pickup AND local delivery.
Challenge yourself to cook a new dish you’ve never made before. Maybe something the whole family can help with. MCQUADES MARKETPLACE offers the freshest groceries delivery right to your front door.
Now more than ever we need to enjoy those simple pleasures in life. A stuffed pretzel from MALTED BARLEY (with apricot butter, ALWAYS). A slice of pizza from CASA DELLA LUCE (Get “The Westerly, trust me) And while we CANT sit at our local restaurant and enjoy a nice meal, more and more will now deliver your favorite dishes right to you. Because we could all use a little comfort food right now.
And while this may feel overwhelming, we can, and we must, continued to support our small local businesses. Westerly is not just a town, it’s a community. It’s OUR community. And we will continue to help those who have helped us for so so long.
