Got bread, got frozen chicken pot pie, lasagne, vegetables, canned soup, and all sorts of food. Got water, got coffee and condiments, got toilet paper (important to have even when it's not going to snow), and also bought a snow rake. Every year so far, I realize I need one when all the hardware stores are sold out. THIS year, the store had a load of them, and one came home with me. Put seed in the bird feeder earlier, and filled my car up with gas.

If my power goes out and is expected to remain so for a while, I will shovel out, rake the roof, and bugger off somewhere where there's power. I probably don't have enough money to go get to, and hang out in southern Italy until spring, but I can dream.
