“Did you know HyVee grocery stores started in Chariton? Granny did and that’s why we are in town, she wanted to see the birthplace. As special as that is, Pipers was around way before HyVee was even a thought. I think they said 120 years or something, that’s 3 generations, unbelievable!
Granny saw the red sign, it was near Valentine’s Day and we had to stop. She ordered some of the candies that are made it house, boy they were tasty. The raisin clumps need more raisins to her liking but the rest of it was great. They also had some fun toys, some antiques and some grocery items. Just a little of everything nicely displayed in a really neat shop. Granny said she liked it more than HyVee, that this was the real jewel of the town. In fact, the actual HyVee in Chariton is one of the worst in the country.
Chariton doesn’t mean to the people of HyVee what HyVee means to Chariton and its people. Too bad. Anyway, Pipers is the real gem. Don’t get within 100 miles and not stop. Granny said we need to come back for Easter! Oh boy, a lot of hopping around, that ol gal. Until next time and tell em granny sent ya.”
