WE went out today to a fairly large Amish store as I wanted some good Swiss cheese to go with some smokies I just made. The place was packed and not a Amish in sight. A lot of the shopping carts had bread and eggs in them but what was difference was how many had lots of ground meat also. Driving home my wife said that she bets a lot of those people don't really know how to cook anything but hamburgers. I do believe she is right. I hope everyone stays safe.

What runs out first around here is bread, milk, and toilet paper.
Here's why they do that.
Once the milk becomes clabbered, and the bread goes stale and all you have left to eat is rotten milk sandwiches, you don't want to run out of toilet paper.
Sounds like a reasonable strategy to me.

I figured worst come to worst and we ran out Our bathrooms at home are small. Im only 2 steps from the toilet to the shower. Never saw the big deal over tp running out. Humans have gotten by centuries with out it.

Stocking up on milk we do. My boys will drink 2 gal a day. Would drink more of the wife didn't limit thwm by only buying so much at a time. The oldest said we should have bought more when we were in town yesterday. He doesn't want to run out.

I always have a lot of powdered milk because i make a lot of different sausage I don't eat bread or flour but I keep a few bags in the freezer just incase I would ever need to make bread for the kids and grandkids in extreme situation.I can't believe how people can't cook or really even survive if they need to anymore.

We keep a pretty good stock of everything we need on hand year around. My wife bakes all our bread and we often get fifty pounds of flour. 25 lbs of sugar. We buy a case of butter when it is on sale. We do not drink or use much milk. Maybe a quart every two months. We use more cream. Cream is about the only thing we stock up on for a blizzard. We have chickens so we don't buy eggs. We are 25 miles from town so we don't go shopping every other day.

I love the liberals in Jersey after a hurricane. Someone needs to give me water, food, and turn on my electricity. Dont know how the media can find these fools. Knew for 7 days was going to be hit with the storm.
