Justified or not, things are getting loopy out there.
Today I saw that my neighbor's son had come home from out of state to come be with his dad. Kind of got to me, as he is a doctor, and don't see much of him.
I thought we might share some tips to help each other out, and get through this mess a little easier.
Hardware stores often carry toilet paper, and cleaning supplies, and other general grocery items.
Organic milk has a much longer expiration date. We picked some up that is good until mid May.
Hope this helps.

Turkey season starts this weekend...unfortunately in my job we’ll be working no matter what!! My DIL was told today they’ll be on paid time off for the next month. Man the fun I could have trapping and turkey hunting for a month straight with no job to worry about!

Hello Levi, I am from north central Ohio. I do not have any specific tips just some general ideas. I remember that a lot of people are way more stressed at this time about coronavirus than I am. Their level of underlying stress/anger is higher than normal. Many people want to vent. I just listen and nod my head. No need to argue with them on pointless things at this time. If I am going to err in my judgement I am going to be patient rather that quick to anger or judge. I am going to be generous rather than selfish with both my money, supplies, and time. Especially so with the elderly. Many old folks are really hunkered down. I am going to take some food and go get groceries and medicines for others. Now is a great time to make an ally if a person is willing to extend a small olive branch. Good Luck to you and yours. Bryan

Thanks for your post. Thanks to everyone.
I have had different people come to me for different reasons since this started. Timing was not a coincidence. I just think that if we can help guide each other through this, it might help. I really don't think things are going to get that bad. The fact of the matter is, I feel that I am unqualified to help if there is a crisis, but people are already looking to me for guidance.

Lol, no, this is manly bread. I know that there's gonna be some great suggestions and kudos for the thread spoker. Cooking cheap, easy and with few ingredients is what I do a lot lol. SOS.....
I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

Not sure if this will help but this is the bread I make. It's super easy to make and only has 4 ingredients. No eggs or milk!
Thanks Catch.
You didn't get that recipe from Jurassic Park did you?
He didn’t get that recipe from me cause it’s a “no knead” recipe for his old girl hands. Catch is all about easy! Doesn’t have the cardio to make 32 crepes!
Cold as ice!

you can use about any meat but venison and beef work well.
day 1 start with a crock pot a pound of venison some potatoes , carrots , and onion fill about 2/3 full cover with water set to high about 8 hours salt and pepper to taste
eat dinner depending how many are eating you may need to refill that first night but when ever you get to about 1/3 left add more meat , potatoes and carrots set to high for about 4 hours let it go to keep warm if your crock pot has that option after that.
you just keep going I have gone as long as a month other than that 4 hours of high after adding the restock you have ready to eat filling food 20 hours a day
about day 3 or 4 it really starts to develop a more complex flavor it is good. , easy and filling
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Excellent point. I always say that you can't win an emotional argument with facts - seems to apply here too. Everyone has their own version of facts. It' usually best to just let them have their facts their way.
