About to get snowed in - what food should I get?

[Anonymous]

Canned sliced white potatoes and a bag of yellow onions - you can fry up some hash browns - yummmm. Buy double the amount of potatoes you'd expect to need.

Pasta and pasta sauce.

Dried red beans - boil for 1 1/2+ hrs with a yellow onion diced and a packet of Goya Sazon (orange one). Serve over rice.

Lots of fruit

Lots of bread for PB&J sandwiches.

Chips/crackers.

And booze and cigarettes! Enough for a week!

And the latest I'm hearing on the Weather Channel is that there could be 3 feet in the greater Boston area and snow isn't expected to stop until 1:00 p.m. tomorrow. I'd say that's pretty much like '78. Plus thunder snow, 60 mph gusts and greater than 50mph sustained winds are expected. One of the reasons New England deals with snow so much better than D.C. (of course there are more plows) is that chuckleheads don't take to the roads so quickly when the weather's wicked bad. Common sense isn't panicking.

Hope you got some chocolate and some nice red wine.

oh please, he issues an order every time a storm comes around-stop watching the weather channel

This is the first such order since 1978. Are you a know-it-all or political partisan or both?

sandy-- he asked us all to get off the roads too. This order means nothing it is not enforceable and no I will not spend even a second looking it up for you. are you here in boston? I was in Michigan in '78 so I was not in Boston but this is not '78 it is 2013. But I appreciate the drama.

Oh you're from Michigan. That explains many things.

how cute!! what a thoughtful response...I didn't day I was from MI, said I was there in '78 moron. Maybe you should eat less chocolate, drink less alcohol and watch less tv so that your reading comprehension skills could develop?

^^^Looks like maybe your grocery bag should have included a stop at the pharmacy counter for a little Valium. Is that the level of discourse at the University of Michigan or is this a event specific episode?
