Time to buy more rice and coffee!

Grains for sure. But what scares me about that is government subsidies all over the world. And with the coming shortage, you can bet on it. How high the price will go despite that however, may be interesting. Crops are real poor this year, but harvest reports haven't begun yet. Very soon.

This has been the first year I planted food.
We have hanging baskets. Six tomatoes, Six everbearing strawberries, two blueberries.

The blueberries totally failed, we’ve gotten maybe 10 strawberries and are just munching on the tomatoes because they never produce enough to freeze or dry.

This year is going to be very bad.

I do an extra run to Sam’s club every two weeks. Drop 100.00.
Rice, cereal, peanut butter, crackers and coffee.
