....than to go to the grocery store. Having lived here in upstate SC all of my life I know that once the word "snow" is mentioned, people go into apocalypse mode. But I wanted to make my crockpot beef stew this weekend, so in I went.
The parking lot was almost full. The store was packed. All of the buggies were gone. I had to wait on some woman checking out to leave her buggy which I grabbed and waded in. I saw a woman carrying by hand, no buggy, three twenty-four roll packs of toilet paper. How long did this woman and her family expect to be housebound? Either they need to check their diets or they need to seek medical advice.
When I got to the checkout, I remarked to the cashier that this was madness. According to her, it had been that way all day. And, she said, the most unusual thing was that they weren't out of bread or milk, but cabbage.
I have no idea what that means.
Let it snow.
