So, you can have all the spam in the ...I hate spam. So, you can have all the spam in the grocery store. :)<BR/><BR/>We read up a lot of survival stuff after 9/11/01. We try to keep our non-perishable items stocked up. We've got bags of beans, soup, cases of water, etc. We go through and eat what is close to getting to the expiration date and try to restock. The latest thing Jeff found was filling gallon jugs of water and putting in your freezer. We have a deep freezer and it helps to have it full to get the most efficient use of it.<BR/><BR/>I'm not ready to believe that the world is going to fail - because I am the ultimate suzy optimist. My husband however is pissy pessimist. He wants to take the money out of the bank and put it under the bed.<BR/><BR/>My MIL is an incredible gardener. I grew 3 tomato plants and 1 broccoli plant - and I got two small tomatoes and no broccoli. So, if the world is going to hell in a handbasket, I'm going to her house.<BR/><BR/>It's scary to think about this stuff. Are the grocery stores going to be empty with no food? I went to Bloom about a month ago, and they hadn't gotten trucks in a week because of the hurricane, and they hardly had anything in the store. It was empty.<BR/><BR/>Whatever you do, don't read The Road. Jeff read it - and it's being made into a movie- and he brings it up everytime we talk about the grim future. It's scary that it could turn out like that, but who knows.<BR/><BR/>Rambling off.Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05091256640844134558noreply@blogger.com
