MESSAGE FROM DANIELLE AT PASTAIO:
ONLINE IS UP. We are now accepting online orders. You can visit my website to not only have my dried pasta shipped to you but also some really really amazing specialty pantry items. As usual we still plan to open on March 25th, Wednesday, with the intention of servicing good food for our community here taking the most serious precautions. Your health and ours in the most important and we want to make sure everything goes smoothly. My need now here in my community is to make sure everyone has access to good food, whether it’s local or imported from small farmers, we plan on being fully stocked and providing the best food possible. Stay tuned!
Curbside Pickup: Because we know some people will want to limit their exposure to the public, we are poised for an uptick in to-go orders, and will be adding delivery service as soon as Wednesday the 18th
Our events are still scheduled as planned. If anything changes we let you now.
Wednesday March 25th Burger Night
Friday March 27th Steve Lacey Record Release

Hello friends,
We are committed to our collective health and are taking direction from the CDC and ServSafe to keep all of us safe.
We are washing, and washing and washing our hands some more.
We are using a CDC approved bleach solution for cleaning tables in between guests.
All tableware has been sanitized through our high temp dishwasher before it gets to you.
Our compostable straws are individually wrapped.
Door knobs and pulls will be wiped frequently.
We have hand sanitizer in all server stations and the restroom.
We are using single use menus and recycling after each use.
This situation seems to be evolving rapidly and on that note, we fully understand that you may have to cancel last minute. We appreciate that and ask that you give us a quick call to let us know. Health and safety come first.
Weather shifting both stormy and sunfiltered 3/13/2020. View from shore after 5:30pm
Is your supermarket busy? Here’s the Stop & Shop crush 6pm yesterday with lines for cashiers and self-checkout wrapped all around.
The essentials – one shopper’s cart last night -ice cream and water!
Not just UK apparently- here’s the toilet paper aisle at BJ’s today. Courtesy photo with note- “The shelves are empty here. The economy will be fine.”
Beyond health and safety conversations with family and friends, at this early week mark, I’m seeing discussions about which industries may be impacted disastrously or pick up. Ditto public services: public meetings will be postponed, but could roadwork ramp up as more people stay home and off the road? One friend canceled a party this weekend, signing off with some black humor – stay healthy and send suggestions for staying cooped up with kids. Another friend sparked a debate about sending students home from college (many untested):
“We are missing a huge opportunity as a Nation. Given that we have barely conducted 6000 tests in two weeks, when compared to South Korea which conducts 20,000 test A DAY! We clearly need to ramp up! Our college kids are healthy, pretty indestructible, and well educated. They could run tests, assist in research, help out in medical settings, even help in transforming hotels or other spaces into medical ready facilities. But we are sending them home, to sit on couches and play video games. Why?” – Linda
Responses back ranged from the difficulties of such close quarters in dorms to alternative approaches in the works (like the Univ. of Washington appealing to grad students to do just that, and Colgate keeping kids on campus).
Healthy wishes to all and feeling grateful for the work that will be undertaken by so many–and at risk– to keep us safe.
