There was a line at Whole Foods self-check out yesterday at lunch that stretched past the prepared foods section and I thought hunh, I guess I am never here right at lunch hour. It seemed like most folks were just holding their lunch. And then H. sent the photos above from last night.

The photographer Max Guliani (who has captured some amazing shots of the neighborhood) caught a crazy line at Trader Joe’s on his Instagram, and was kind enough to send me the photo below from the Soho location.

Nutty! And of course sadly evocative of March 2020…
