Friday, February 4

I would just like to start today by apologizing to anyone I might have offended with my blog about the Packers.

Now, with that out of the way, I would like to make fun of the way people hoard groceries before a winter weather event.  This past week, we were forecasted to a significant amount of snow.  Like over a foot.  

I live in a city and I go to the grocery store up the street that is mainly the choice of other city dwelling people - it's not a store that draws traffic from rural areas that surround us.  I went there on Monday and people were hoarding stuff like there were never going to be able to get out  again.  Now i know what you are saying, but you were there too.  I was, but that is because I usually grocery shop on Monday or Tuesday. 

So here's what I want to know-- what is about snow that makes people eat bread?  By the time I went to the store about 6 pm, the bread was picked over in a way that I had not seen in a long time.  So do these people only bread because it was going to snow?  Would they still have eaten/brought bread if it wasn't going to snow?  Where they going to make snow sandwiches?  I just don't get it.
