Father’s Day is this Sunday

Father’s Day is this Sunday

So I had a long talk with Otis to figure out how to be the best dad I could be and this is what I took away from the conversation. He doesn’t talk much but he does howl and look at me with puppy eyes, he is a dog after all and so we share lots of  those kind of moments. Life is all about moments and I plan on creating as many amazing family moments as possible.Will he get me a Father’s Day gift? Probably not, but withMonicas help you never know. So this is my list of “that would be nice, but you shouldn’t have” gifts.  I love to cook and enjoy time with Monica, Otis and Rhoda (yes, Rhoda of Rhoda’s Chicken Soup is real and is my Mom) so, I’d love a new pan or a bunch of ingredients to make something special and a bottle of my favorite wine always makes me feel fine.  Time spent with family, cheese, wine and great food is always a winner for me. Time spent with the ones you love is always the best time.
My advice to all is to be nice, be kind, be compassionate and love more than you think you are capable of. 
It is your one true personal reward. 
Life is a journey, share it and enjoy.
Happy Father’s Day!Call us for lots of great gift ideas.

How’s everyone doing? We are currently working on a plan to bring back platters, sandwiches and more. We are excited to say next week we will be getting back to our normal hours Tuesday thru Sunday for curbside and delivery. Another step to normalcy!The last few days, weeks, months have been trying to say the least for all of us but some of us even more.  Our thoughts and hearts are with all those suffering losses (loved ones, family, friends, co workers, jobs, sanity and freedoms).We are constantly humbled by the kindness and generosity of our customers.  We count our blessings every day and hope for healing and understanding for the world. We are all in this together and only together will we get through this. Clearly this is a major inconvenience and disruption in all of our normal daily lives but we will get through. These next few weeks of reopening the state will be difficult for all small and large businesses. Please be mindful and patient.– We are always just a phone call away!

It’s now been 12 weeks since we started curbside and delivery only protocol.  We continue to grow our new products and online platform and currently offering an assortment of grains, rice and pantry products. Until we start doing our platters again we will be doing platter kits! Everything you need to make the perfect platter. Sandwich kits too!

This going to be a challenging time. Monica and I have decided to go to delivery only for both stores.We understand how important Cheese & Wine time is!  The two of us will be putting together all of the orders and making all of the soup, appetizers and flatbreads that we can. Remember that we also have many pantry needs too. Pasta, sauce, olive oil, balsamic, par baked baguettes and more. And don’t forget our grilled cheese 4 packs! We will be delivering Thursday – Sunday from 3-6. In order to make this happen we will be taking phone orders all week Tuesday – Sunday. Please call the main Ridgefield number 203-438-5757 and we will get back to you as soon as we can. Please be patient with us. We have good stock on most items and our wine store is also well stocked. Greg will be handling the wine, so if you need us to put together a mixed case he is available to assist. There will be no minimum on delivery orders but we ask that you be mindful.James will be out doing our deliveries in our little blue Ford Transit. Her name is Gertie, please wave and say hi if you see us out doing deliveries. Our online ordering platform is constantly being updated to make the process even easier.
