Ok, so I think next week after I get a thing of pancake mix, some stuff to make my dal and Poorman's Potatoes, I think I will be good to go in case we have to hunker down..the Governor keeps saying we won't get another LOCKDOWN but who knows, we could see an even bigger uptick next week and he'll say oh we have no choice, etc..anything could happen ( Read more... )
