Kindergarten Trip to Gnazzo's


I'm extremely fortunate to be able to be a stay at home mom! Today I got to go on another field trip! Today's field trip was to Gnazzo's. Gnazzo's is a small grocery store in town that I used to work at when we first moved here to CT in 1995. I worked there part time during my senior year, when I was going to College and one night a week when I first got married.
Anneli was so excited to tour the store and I was happy to see some familiar places and faces. Since the grocery store is just down the street from the school, we bundled up the kids and we walked to the store. It was a little chilly, but it was a short walk so it wasn't too bad. Upon arriving at the store, the kids took a vegetable quiz. Anneli knew quite a few of them! YIPPEE!! Next up was a tour of the loading dock where all the groceries get delivered. The kids then got to see the cooler where all the fruit is kept fresh and then we got to watch a pineapple be cored and cut and then we each got a few pieces to try! Some kids had never eaten fresh pineapple. Anneli wishes she had a pineapple corer at home so she could eat fresh cored pineapple ALL the time! I'm sure we could find one on e-bay for Christmas...
She really loved trying out the cash register! She ne
eds to grow a little more before she can be like me and work there too! :)
