Cheeselady’s Gouda Cheese, Glasgow Glen Farm

This weekend was a special one in our home. Our daughter, who is with us temporarily, was celebrating her birthday. We haven’t been together for about 28 years due to the fact we lived in two different Provinces. Let me continue…..

We were watching a cooking show on TV about a week or so ago and the two Chefs travel all over, going from one farm to another gathering produce, meats/poultry, fruits, etc. and then preparing a gourmet meal and inviting all the contributors to get together and enjoy the meal.

They made such a to do about the cheeses they had gathered (Glasgow Glen Farm, P.E.I) who make Beer Gouda, Mustard/Pepper Gouda and the biggest surprise and best ever is the Bluda Gouda. OMG! Not sharing that one and I have never, ever put blue cheese anything in my mouth before. Don didn’t tell us and we thought we were eating the Beer Gouda and I thought it tasted even smoother than the day before. When I said something, he just laughed and told what it was we had just eaten.

Customer Service is a big thing with me and Jeff McCourt excelled. Speed of delivery, not getting upset with an old lady worrying about if it would arrive in time for our big P.E.I dinner, and putting in a little extra puts this company right at the top.

Thank you Jeff and we will be doing this again at Christmas. Just sayin’.

My next review is with more P.E.I. goodies.

Save On Foods-Nanaimo

Exactly one week ago, my husband was shovelling a little snowfall from the driveway when he slipped and fell on his back. We waited until the next morning to call an ambulance as we thought it was only a few bruises.

Long story short, he has a wedge break on the T3 vertebrae in his lower back and in a ton of pain. We got home via Medi Van  but, as I don’t drive the big van anymore, and especially on the snowy/icy roads here right now, we are basically hooped.

Until…..I called my former boss at Save On Foods in Aldergrove, B.C. asking her if Save On delivered. She said yes and they were very popular. Okay, now understand I am mechanically challenged and after trying and trying to log in, I had to call for help. The young man (David) was so great and never talked down to me at all. I got on and then having to fool around for a bit, I made my order out. When it came time to pay, I spent about 45 minutes trying to find how to pay. After clicking on every inch of the screen, it finally allowed me to pay and book a time.

The young man who delivered the order was a real sweetheart and I didn’t get his name, but so polite, smiling all the while and then off he went.

The order was great with one exception. I thought I ordered a pork tenderloin and got a whole pork loin instead. Never mind says me. Cut it up and we will be fine. We have a beautiful piece for porchetta, and 6 meals of pork chops. It was a bargain.

One word…Save On please make your site a little clearer for people like me and I know I am not alone. The service is awesome and so very welcome for people in situations like us. Also….I used to work for ‘the good guys’ and still, to this day, believe they are the best for quality, selection and employees.
