Went to the grocery store this morning for a few things. Except for antibacterial hand soap and hand sanitizer things were pretty well stocked. There was even pasta for the first time in weeks. I expected the meat department to be picked bare since there are warnings of a meat shortage on the horizon. Instead I noticed that the limits posted there for the last few weeks were gone.
Maybe the panic is wearing off.

I'm about to pass some burritos. Will that do?

I admit to not checking the beer and wine section. Since I don't drink I didn't even notice.

What's up with that, anyway? My wife has been wanting to make bread for weeks, and there's no yeast to be found around here, either.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

My daughter hasn't been able to find any here. A friend of hers who manages a grocery story in Utah sent her three little packages.

People are making it at home during the lockdowns, so some are hoarding it. I’ve always made my own bread (I can make my own yeast as well, but it’s a bitch to cook with).
