AN ACTIVE COUPLE FINDS SOME EXTRA TIME Why Tracy and Brian are Hooked on October Kitchen
“In 2013, Brian was in the hospital for 11 days. On the day he came
home, Brian’s brother, Kevin, ordered us a week of food from October Kitchen. Kevin had received an October Kitchen gift card from friends after his wife passed away in 2011 and he knew how helpful their services can be during a difficult time.

Trips to the grocery during the week are sometimes difficult to make and time does not always allow Tracy to prepare a meal at the end of the workday.

In the summers, they spend time outdoors in both New Hampshire and New York State where they visit family. In the winter, the two enjoy a trip to Marco Island to play golf, walk on the beach, go shelling and enjoy the sunshine in Florida. “It’s nice to get away from winter for one week.”
