My husband and I made our first visit to the Abingdon Wegman's yesterday. It was pretty nice. Didn't quite have the selection of some of the items that we are used to from our shopping trips to the Hunt Valley store, but it's location makes it more convenient for some of the goodies we have come to enjoy from Wegman's, like the Saga Blue Cheese Torte!
