Stocking Up

[Crankyshank]

I usually stock up on tomato soup, fluff, and hot chocolate in the winter. There are few things more devastating on a cold winter day than coming in from shoveling and there's no hot chocolate!

I stock up year round. If it's on sale cheap I buy it. I would hate to need TP and have to pay full price for it.

A couple points to ponder- your vehicles, are they ready for winter driving- VERMONT winters that is. You know snow tires, we use those up here :

Seriously? We don't use snow tires here at all and everyone always acts like oh MN winters are so awful.

I don't live in VT, but in the winter I always make sure I have a couple of boxes of brownie mix that doesn't require eggs. You know, the kind that you just add water too. Eggs go fast in our home during a snow storm. There have been a couple of times in the last few years where we have gottne quite a bit of snow & didn't leave the house for a while. I like to be able to pig out when I'm stuck in the house, under a warm blanket, watching life time movies! I'm already hoping for a few feet!!!

Not to hijack this thread, but did you know you can take ANY brownie mix, and add half of a 16 oz container of fat free sour cream to it (and no other ingredients), and make them like that? Mmmmm.

No way!!! Why'd you have to tell me that??? Now I can't use the "we're out of eggs" excuse!!! I can feel my clothes getting tighter just thinking about it!

Hope all goes well for you.

All you have to stock on up is Triscuits. They take for ever to go stale, you can put anything on them, and if the snow gets really bad you can use them for traction under your tires.

Just wanted to update you guys....so far nothing on the position. I'm thinking she's decided to go with someone else. I'm hoping she calls DH today.
