I can tell you, first hand, that getting old is pretty shitty. But there are some perks. I can get into a movie theatre, high school or even college basketball game at a reduced rate. But I was completely unaware that I am also entitled to free lunches. Northampton County's 11 senior centers offer a free hot lunch daily to anyone over the age of 60, so long as a reservation is made the day before.
"We want to be as proactive as possible to protect the health of our older residents by making sure they have access to adequate nutrition,” says Executive Lamont McClure. He is also concerned that SNAP benefits could be cut off if there's another government shut down.
Here are the 11 senior centers where I can eat for free. One of them is convenienly located next to the courthouse.
I hope it's dairy free. I wonder if they serve Thai?

The free lunches are cooked at Gracedale
Wow, bernie do you try a different one every day,? Which serves the best stuff.?
I'll set it up where you will have the "courthouse fries" delivered to your estate!
Best in the Lehigh Valley
Damn this is good news. I'll be there in a few years. I have to put this list where I can find it.
Bernie, A Harvard Prof says no more than 6 French fries at a sitting meal. He’s right. Don’t eat that stuff . I stated before on your blog , you don’t loose weight by exercise,it’s intake management. Quantify issue by use of surgeon generals chart to know individual peramater of intake. Everything else is hokes pockes. Fat rats for example do not live as lone as skinny rats . So, I urge you to look at what I said seriously. I did it ,you can do it
