The cold is coming. Get the milk and bread!

[GilpinGuy]

LOL Coldness is on the way, with snow...in late December!!! Holy shit, the world really is ending!

Sorry, my wife had the local news on earlier. [facepalm] I'm assuming there will be some dumb ass follow up story about how this is due to AGW, like big snowfall in Alaska.

So winter is finally going to show up on the Solstice. SWEET!!

Bah humbug. Finding what I hate about this winter, amazing riding weather in afternoon but sub freezing mornings sucks trying to go to work. I'm hoping it returns to at least ~32 mornings and 45-50 high afternoons would be pretty sweet. Keep the snow I'll just water manually some.

It has been remarkably dry and warm so far this year, a nice break from the snow removal duties. I've been working steadily to split and stack firewood, have about 5 cords done and hope to finish the last cord today. Some of the rounds are 36" diameter spruce.

Snow is predicted for this evening through Saturday with a low of -2 Sat. night. The snow plow and snow thrower are ready to go. It feels good to be prepared.

As well as one can be, yes it does.

My wife and I were in Marathon, FL, a few years back for Christmas.
We were in Publix and there were no eggs.
Thinking of similar incidents at the Safeway in Elizabeth when a snow storm was on the way, my wife commented:
"Must be a snow storm coming - all the eggs are gone."
Before we left the Publix, the check-out clerk told us that the Keys were getting a rare snow storm and that there was a run on eggs.
We still laugh about the rumor.
And no, it did not snow for that Christmas in the FL Keys.

I actually went food shopping yesterday to avoid "the armaggedon shopping panic".

Apparently, French Toast is the ultimate winter survival food, since the stores run out of bread, milk, and eggs first...

I didn't get my milk and bread today but I did take advantage of the nice weather to gas my truck up. No crazy lines at the pumps yet.

We took advantage of the Prime Rib Roast @ Kings & Safeway sale.

There was room on in the cart for that stuff with your bread and milk?

The spouse carries that stuff in a basket, on her head.

Me thinks you're head is lucky she hasn't read this thread. :)


By all means stock up on fresh fruit, veggies and dairy, but if one hasn't at least 6 months of food stores in home, you'll be of the SOL when the SHTF, and deserving of the pain and suffering that will ensue. Be prepared or be stupid and dead.

Woe is me, totally forgot about the coming apocalyptic type storm coming our way.
Did get some milk and eggs today, she has a craving for some deviled eggs.
Good thing we have plenty of bread in the freezer.

[encorehunter]

I went shopping yesterday and put about 25 lbs of goat meat in the freezer and a dozen eggs. I only have about 35 lbs of bacon and 60 pounds of sausage left, so if snowmaggeden gets to big, I may have to walk over to the pig supermarket and pick up another 250 pounds of pork. I'll pick up another dozen eggs today, and probaby another dozen tomorrow. I haven't taken a liking to goat milk, so that is the one thing we may have to go to town for.

At 5:30 we had 3' of light powder at 12 degrees.

It's supposed to hit 26 degrees on Christmas Eve here....

Same here. Got home from work at about 6:30 and the roads were snow packed, but it was sticky snow which surprised me. I figured the warm temps followed by a cold blast would make it icy, but nah. Smooth sailing up the hill.
