    It was only a matter of time... (G) How close is it to you...? And,
    I'm guessing that it's built already, just getting the finishing touches now.....? I'm not surprised, since Wegmans is currently expanding into
    the Carolinas... :) Congratulations... ;)

    Title: Lithuanian Salted Vimba
    Categories: Lithuanian, Fish
    Yield: 4 servings

    Vimba

    These fish are not scaled, just cleaned and washed. Place fish in a
    non-metallic container and cover with a dry marinade made with salt,
    pepper, ground bay leaves, crushed juniper berries and crushed
    cardamom seeds. Next day, scrape off the dried marinade, place fish
    in same container, weigh down and set in cool place. Before eating
    the fish is soaked in cold water. Salted vimba is used for fish
    chowders and is simmered in fat with carrots and fresh dill.

    It was only a matter of time... (G) How close is it to you...? And,
    I'm guessing that it's built already, just getting the finishing touches now.....? I'm not surprised, since Wegmans is currently expanding into
    the Carolinas... :) Congratulations... ;)

    Should be open end of this month.

    I think the folks wanting to open new stores just noted that Virginia Beach is the largest city (by population) in the state and is surrounded by the top 10 in the state. We rival DC beltway for population and in fact, exceed it.

    When I was in Quarryville PA (near Lancaster) last fall for a niece's
    wedding, a Wegmans opened in Lancaster... The friend I was staying with
    said that there'd been an article explaining Wegmans' criteria for
    opening new stores... population was one of the factors, also education
    level, and average income... Va Beach should have qualified easily on
    all levels... :) There's been at least one (maybe more) store in the DC metropolitan area opened in the last few years... another niece lives
    and works in a VA DC suburb, and one opened across the street from her apartment... she was ecstatic... :)
