Yesterday, we celebrated Sophie’s birthday, our little Chipping Sparrow! 🐦

Her birthday was actually on October 26, but we could get together to celebrate only yesterday. It was a small celebration, but full of fun, laughter and happiness.

May God bless Sophie with a long, happy and healthy life. 🙏🏼🎂

Just sharing this little moment because our staff here is more than just a team — they are our closest family away from home and the backbone of Superette.

A big thank you to Rebecca for helping us announce the names! 🙏🏼

🌿 WHEN SOMEONE WALKS — NATURE TALKS 🌿

It was raining a little bit near Fifth St this morning when I witnessed a quiet act of kindness.

During my regular walk, I noticed a senior lady carrying a bucket and a gentleman walking with a cute dog. She was carefully picking up glass and other garbage from the trail and blackberry bushes.

When I reached the corner of Hecate Street and Sophia Lane, I asked, “Are you picking up glass?”

She replied, “Yes, glass—and all the garbage.”

My heart filled with gratitude, and I silently prayed for her. To me she was like a ray of hope on a dark day.

Canada is blessed with extraordinary natural beauty, and people like her help protect it without expecting anything in return. Our seniors have contributed so much to building a culture of kindness, generosity, and community. That’s the reason yesterday a former president said” They are the nicest people”.

We spoke briefly, and she kindly said she appreciated the “right people” taking over our store. I invited her to visit Superette Foods anytime for a cup of tea. ☕❤️

I am sharing this story because kindness is contagious. If even one person is inspired to care for their community, our country will be better for it.

We at Superette often say, “Our seniors are not old but are like gold.” Their value never diminishes rather increases and their wisdom and example continue to guide us.

This kind lady and gentleman inspired me today, and I hope their quiet efforts inspire others as well.
(I recorded the video from a distance to respect their privacy and avoid interrupting their meaningful work and I apologise if it causes any kind of inconvenience)🙏🌿
