Hi Nancy,

 NB>  NB>>> Always enough desserts to auction off that way...  
 NB>  RH>> And a good variety as well.
 NB>  NB>> Which is part of what makes it so enjoyable every year,,, 

 RH> That, and the bidding competition. It can get crazy sometimes.

 NB> I can well imagine... 

All in good fun and for a good cause however.

 NB>  RH>>> We'll see--Raleigh one is only 3 months away from opening now.
 NB>  NB>>> True...  
 NB>  RH>> We were down in the area on Monday. The construction fence is
 NB> gone  RH>> now so we could see inside the plaza better. Looks like
 NB> work is
 NB>  RH>> progressing well but know there are a lot of small jobs to
 NB> finish  RH>> between now & then.
 NB>  NB>> As is to be expected...  

 RH> Yes but it will be nice when it finally opens. Somebody was commenting
 RH> recently that they didn't understand all the "hype" about Wegman's;
 RH> she'd been in one and was not that impressed with it. Maybe she needed
 RH> to spend more time in one? (G)

 NB> It partly depends on what area of a store one does most of their
 NB> shopping... and what sort of quality they want and are willing to pay
 NB> for... For me, Wegmans easily wins hands down... the things that
 NB> matter to me are at least as inexpensive as at any other store, the
 NB> quality of the fresh foods (produce, meats, seafood, dairy, bakery) is
 NB> as good or
 NB> better than anywhere else, I don't mind paying a little more for good
 NB> fresh food to be prepared at the store for me, and so on.... and the
 NB> convenience of it all in one place...  Apparently Aldi's is a better
 NB> fit for some people, including my youngest sister (MG).... shrug... 

We do a mix of stores, depending on where we are, what we need.
