Food Storage

Todd and Cristi went to Costco last night to stock up on rice as there is apparently a worldwide shortage and some stores are beginning to ration out the quantity you can buy. You can read an article here. I guess when they got there everyone was piling on bags of rice to buy and so they grabbed the last five bags. Todd said that is was just kind of creepy because you start seeing others and he began to have that panicky feeling that people induce on each other (mass hysteria). As we all talked about it last night I reviewed with Mitch our food storage: several cans of cream of mushroom and chicken soup. Bucket o' protein powder. Flour, sugar, rice. Several cans of tomato sauce. 2 big empty water containers. 2 bottles of listerine? Okay, just kidding. But seriously...we are obviously lacking. I plan to go home tonight and at least fill up our water containers. Everyone in our family just jokes that we will go to Valynne's house in an emergency because she has 5 years worth of everything AND even the haz mat suits. I guess I probably can't rely on that though...so I guess I will put forth some real effort now. If anyone has any amazing advice to share please pass it along.
