Have my treadle geared up to go and my kerosene lamps. Still have to go to Harris Teeters for dry ice for the freezer. I am ready. LOL
I LOVE Harris Teeter!! When I lived in Alrlington (right next to the Ballston Mall) they opened one up about a block away. That was the BEST grocery store I ever got to shop at. Moved back to RI - when we had children that were old enough we went back to DC for a couple of vacations - one of the things they still talk about is riding the elevator in Harris Teeter with the grocery cart!
