especially of bread, milk and eggs, the ladies at the quilt store said they see a definite rise in business whenever a storm is announced so that the quilters are not stuck without a project.
So, does anyone else make a fabric run. I was already at my LQS taking a class this morning. DH picked up the non-perishables. We already had bread, milk and eggs.
Cheers, K

scary thought ~ I don't think I could ever run out of projects, it might not be one that I really want to do - but I will always have projects.

It is a very strange thing to me that when bad weather is predicated every one runs to the store for milk, bread and other things I understand but milk, I don't get that. As for projects I have plenty to keep me busy and happy.

we always get milk as you can always eat cereal if the power goes out and can stick the jug of milk out in the snow to keep cold

I have plenty of fabric and UFOs to stay busy all winter. I'm fine if the power doesn't go out. If the power goes off for more then a day, I'm at the nearest hotel with power along with sewing projects. I stuck it out during the last ice storm for two week without power, never again unless it's a have to situation. DH loves to man the house, I prefer room service.
