Stay In, Cook Out!
FREE DELIVERY on all Weber Grills!
Life has changed a lot in the last several weeks: We’re self-isolating at home, keeping in contact with loved ones through social media, and trying not to check the news every five minutes. One thing that’s giving us comfort right now, as it always does, is cooking.
Why not Cook Out in style with Weber Grills! Since Weber released their first grill in 1952, they have become the biggest name in BBQ. From the Weber Original Kettle Grill to the Weber Genesis, everyone immediately knows a Weber BBQ when they see one. Their well-known designs, tried and true cooking systems, and outstanding customer service have helped them become the company people know and love.
We are here for you!

Use of Cloth Face Coverings to Help Slow the Spread of COVID-19 How to Wear Cloth Face Coverings Cloth face coverings should— • fit snugly but comfortably against the side of the face • be secured with ties or ear loops • include multiple layers of fabric • allow for breathing without restriction • be able to be laundered and machine dried without damage or change to shape
CDC on Homemade Cloth Face Coverings CDC recommends wearing cloth face coverings in public settings where other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain (e.g., grocery stores and pharmacies), especially in areas of significant community-based transmission. CDC also advises the use of simple cloth face coverings to slow the spread of the virus and help people who may have the virus and do not know it from transmitting it to others. Cloth face coverings fashioned from household items or made at home from common materials at low cost can be used as an additional, voluntary public health measure. Cloth face coverings should not be placed on young children under age 2, anyone who has trouble breathing, or is unconscious, incapacitated or otherwise unable to remove the cloth face covering without assistance. The cloth face coverings recommended are not surgical masks or N-95 respirators. Those are critical supplies that must continue to be reserved for healthcare workers and other medical first responders, as recommended by current CDC guidance.
Should cloth face coverings be washed or otherwise cleaned regularly? How regularly? Yes. They should be routinely washed depending on the frequency of use.
How does one safely sterilize/clean a cloth face covering? A washing machine should suffice in properly washing a cloth face covering.
How does one safely remove a used cloth face covering? Individuals should be careful not to touch their eyes, nose, and mouth when removing their cloth face covering and wash hands immediately after removing.

LOOKING TO ADOPT/ purchase a Golden Retriever puppy or one year old +/-. Can adopt/ purchase immediately. Contact Lainie at (917)-488-2382.
Furby is a 10-year old male cat. He’s named after a popular toy in the late 1990’s, but maybe he should be called “Yo Yo” as he has been returned to Berkshire Humane Society twice because adoptive family members were allergic to him. Furby has long, silky fur, so needs routine grooming and a family resistant to allergies. He’s a bit shy at first, but will warm up to you quickly. Furby is not good with other cats. We’re hoping his third adoption will be the charm!

Thank you for helping the animals.
ALFONSE Alfonse is a 5 ½ -year-old American bulldog/pointer mix. He is mostly white with some brown. He was surrendered to Berkshire Humane Society because he is a Houdini and had escaped from his owners several times. Alfonse is good with other dogs and plays with Catch, another dog at the shelter. He is house-trained and knows basic commands such as “sit” and “down”. Alfonse is a strong dog, but does well in his harness. He needs a home with an active family and space to run and play – he needs to be entertained. He would be good with children 10 years old and up.
