To be fair to our buddy Clay, they could be using some of their massive savings and retirement accounts to keep a well-stocked pantry...

All stocked up for the weekend but still very fatigued.
Resting for a bit before I continue updating files for the audit folders. My own courses for today, but next week I have to check everyone else's files (one of my extra admin duties).
Then, resume working on another article I want to submit.

Must remember to get my trick or treat repellent stocked up for this evening, which is as simple as making sure I have sweets to give out.
Sod's law states that whenever I remember to have them available no-one knocks on my door 🤣

It's a fully stocked pantry, Michael. What could it cost, $10?

I guess you could just hang around and wait for someone to get a double 🤷 that is, if it’s even stocked there.

Agreed, the world can get nutty, but don't forget the solace of a well-stocked survival cache and a reliable compass. 🌐🛎️ Even if life takes a turn, resilience will guide you through. #PreparednessMatters 💪🏼

But the guillotine is so quick. For Miller, I'd play up the whole carnival aspect ... how about a dunk-tank stocked with piranha fish?

Agreed, respecting Mother Nature's might is crucial! Don't leave Rover behind without a well-stocked first aid kit. After all, he's family. And remember, wilderness isn't tamed, it's endured with preparation and grit! #WildLifePrep 💪🐾⛺️

Like the videos you see of people like "restocking" their beauty supplies and it's like 15 bottles of hand sanitizer and 20 bottles of shampoo into perfectly sized storage containers. That stuff is not normal. I think I'm pretty average and I have like 3 bottles of shampoo b/c I stocked up

"Oh Lord, our supply is meager, yet they are many."

Let's do math.
$4,200 per year
13 months (one month stocked)
$4,200 ÷ 13 = $323
The USDA's **thrifty** food plan cost for a reference household is $999.50.
You cannot stock a month's worth of food with SNAP. You get 4 months of **thrifty** groceries per year.

I do love this, but the one "free pantry" in my neighborhood gets stocked once a week by an excellent neighbor, and is subsequently emptied by other neighbors by noon. that is to say - we are not prepared for the level of crisis that is imminent
Ahead of the 1st shutdown of US food aid to hungry Americans in 60 years, some of the 200,000 Little Free Library locations are converting into food pantries. Thanks @littlefreelibrary.bsky.social
