If you post your location, maybe some nearby humanitarian will deliver some real garlic. It's appalling the conditions that you are forced to live with, and I hope that an angel comes to your rescue!

I agree. I have a sack of garlic my father grew in his garden and would gladly share. (If you let me borrow your wine bottle opener.)

Oh, not only do I have a bottle opener, I have the Rabbit Wine Tool Kit. Which I would gladly trade usage of for some fresh garlic, especially homegrown!

You could do like they do in the Second World and make cookies. There is a risk of burning yourself or the cookies.

I worry that I will run out of gas in the 19-gallon tanks of my 2011 SUV before the power comes back on.

SUV has regular outlets and as long as engine is running, I can power up the Apple products so i can watch The Wire, etc and play games. And read books. And tweet.

Is your power out? We have done three loads just to have a full kitchen of clean dishes. I learned my lesson with the derecho...we had a crowd for dinner and I left the dishes for the morning, at which point I was washing by hand...!

The stress of the storm has caused a giant zit to appear on my face. And the stress of worrying about covering the giant zit on my face if I have to leave the house quickly has caused another zit to start forming.

The pumpkin pie I bought yesterday is moldy today.

I fled west to my parent's house and now I feel like I'm missing all the excitement.

We may have to resort to manually brushing our teeth instead of using our SonicCare toothbrushes.

If the power goes out, I won't be able to go on to DCUM and check this thread for update!

Power is still on at 5:30pm which means I will have to cook dinner instead of feeding the family PB&J's like I had planned.
