I have huge bags of fresh tomatoes, carrots, sweet peppers, cucumbers and hot peppers just picked from my garden, today.
When my local merchant opens his store, I am going to take about a third of them to him for his table or his kitchen or to sell from his shelves if he wants.
I am just pleased that a small time individual person can still run a store these days. Instead of offering him a tip or a gratuity, I keep on thanking him for his store by showing him the best appreciation I can.
I just think it is amazing that I can still walk to a local store and buy bread or milk or ketchup or mayo or spices or ... ... ... Just do not tell anyone I know.
I want his store to live forever!
