MUNDANE MYSTERIES: What’s the difference between a grocery store and supermarket?

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: What’s the difference between a grocery store and supermarket?

With our Star Food Drive happening today at ShopRite in Milford seemed like a good day to figure out what the difference is between a grocery store and a supermarket.

Grocery stores tend to have mainly a focus on food and beverages. While Supermarkets in addition to food and drink typically give a little more shelf space to other items like household products, personal care products, cookware, and small kitchen appliances, etc… more than a grocery store would.

TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: A Lost & Found Airport Story For The Ages

TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: A Lost & Found Airport Story For The Ages

The worst feeling ever is losing something at the airport. Bags, your phone, laptop, etc… but the BEST feeling in the world is when someone returns it to you.

That’s what happened to this woman boarding a Southwest flight out of Long Beach, CA recently. She realized her phone was missing and she had left it in the terminal. Shockingly one of the workers on the tarmac had found it ran out to the plane which was already backing up. The pilot was able to stop and open the cockpit window allowing the worker to jump up and pass him the phone. The video of the whole ordeal is wild you can watch it here.

Luckily the woman got her phone back safe and sound. I hope she thanked that worker and pilot!

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: There’s a famous singer who used to be a voice on the Peanuts cartoons

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: There’s a famous singer who used to be a voice on the Peanuts cartoons

With the holidays quickly approaching it’s almost time to watch all the Peanuts cartoon specials.

One think I never knew was how one of the voices is someone you probably know very well from her music. Stacy “Fergie” Ferguson who was in the Black Eyed Peas and known for her solo career was the voice of Sally Brown, Charlie Brown’s kid sister, on many of the Peanuts cartoons that were produced in the ’80s. How funny is that?! I’ll have to rewatch them now and listen closely.
