Went by Bell's an hour ago. Got a loaf of bread, some ground beef, 1 gallon FF milk(I got the last one, there was other milk though) some Oreos and ice cream.

The ice cream was pretty thin so I had to pay $6.49 for a 48oz Mayfield vanilla. That seems expensive, but I don't do the shopping. Blue Bell 1/2 was $7.29.

Completed an online order, but pickup isn't until tomorrow afternoon.

Wife has been asking repeatedly for oddball stuff: mandarin oranges packed in juice, Choboini brand (only) blueberry (only flavor) Greek yogurt and Diet Dew (not the new Dew Zero...it isn't good), Kleenex (but only in tall box) etc, etc.

I have it whirl at the local Neighborhood Market this morning.

Sold out of toilet paper, bleach, hand sanitizer, Clorox wipes, but picked up plenty eggs, tea bags, coffee, tater's onions, Jimmy Dean sausage.....and yes...Diet Dew & freaking mandarin oranges.

I am lucky to have a local year-round produce place a couple miles from me. I can get all kinds of veggies and fruits, bacon, sausage they make themselves, beef and pork from their own livestock, milk, bread, farm eggs, butter, cheese, honey, flour, cornmeal, and all that sort of stuff. And nobody from town knows about it. :)

Purdy Gurl just got back
scored ma an extra bottle of hand sanitizer so it will make life a little easier for me
all washable items went in the sink with antibiotic soap and washed well
all hard surfaces sprayed with hard surface sanitizer...should be dry in a few...

think this will hold us the rest of the week I show tonight fare in Cafe when I get it done...will be making sauces the rest of the afternoon for it :)

got some stuff that just might draw @Nicodemus out from under his tree later in the week...better hold me back a bowl of that mighty fine stuff I saw for a trade :D

PG said just about all of the frozen meals like high fat pizza and stuff was wiped out. We have enough to make our own Pizzas this week on the grill. Might try and make a loaf of bread while I am making pizza dough.

If we learn one thing from this virus its , put a limit on toilet paper and cleaning supplies to stop the hoarders , who should be ashamed of themselves . This country has never had a shortage of TP or cleaning supplies until these selfish Americans showed themselves .

NO! It's to "SLOWLY" build up a supply during the "good times" when supplies are plentiful so that when the "zombies" raid everything.. you are ready for it. Call me a "prepper" or what you will, I've not found a need for anything since this started and won't for the foreseeable future.

Went to Costco in Kennesaw yesterday. Plenty of food, cleaning supplies and TP. And not too crowded, either. They're only letting up to 2 people per membership card in at a time, and the lack of large groups and families with a hundred kids was pleasantly noticeable.
