I went grocery shopping this morning….
And I now know what we will all be doing during the virus apocalypse.
Baking.
Because there wasn’t a freaking bag of flour for miles.
There was beef, but no chicken.
Tissues, but no paper towels.
Ham, but no bacon.
Macaroni, but no spaghetti.
You never know what will disappear next. Although I did notice there was plenty of kale…. which makes it official.
If all that’s left on the shelves is kale? I will starve to death.
River's world..... 
… it is a good thing that the symptoms of wu-flu isn’t diarrhea. They would clear the shelves of mouthwash.
You could parboil the kale leaves and use them for TP …

I’m on my way! I’m gonna buy it all and drive up the demand when the supply runs out.

I just thought you should know… More on WordPress.com below your blog post is taunting you. They posted Keto Green Smoothie Recipe and Crispy Kale Chips: Best Snakc Ever! It made me chuckle. 😉 Better luck next time at the grocery store. I went this morning, wasn’t as bad as I expected.

I used to stock the salad bar at a restaurant that I won’t name–let’s just say it rhymes with “Coneys”–and we used kale as a garnish. Because no one would eat it. Also it lasted days. That’s right: we’d recycle the kale.
Now that I think about it COVID-19 might have been bred in the recycled kale on the salad bar and I’m deeply sorry.
On the bright side I see birthday candles there. I think you should get some as a sign of optimism.

Same here. Couldn’t get the brown sugar I needed. The husband noticed black beans were low but lima beans were in huge supply. No surprise there!

We had lots of sugar but no flour. So whatever we’re baking? It’s not sweet.

I heard tell a tale of a male who brewed ale from kale and called it K ALE. Surely you’d not fail to avail yourself of a grail (if not a pail) of such ale.

We just managed to get some bacon when we went shopping. And there was plenty of chicken, if all you want is chicken breasts. They were absolutely cleaned out of toilet paper, tissues, and there were exactly two rolls of paper towels. 🤷♀️

You have chicken? I have tissues. Maybe we can meet in the alley behind the grocery store after dark and make a deal.

Find the guy that cut back on the toilet paper order so he could fit a crate of kale into the truck. Make him sit there and eat every leaf.
