Went grocery shopping today and was pleasantly surprised. Safeway and WM were better stocked than I expected and I got the best deal on hamburger ever (10 lb chub, 15% fat for 10.00, regular price $44.00). We came home and broke it into 1 lb packages and made Ikea meatballs and gravy (amazing).

I think we Americans can get through a shortage of anything.....but love. I worked in a museum. We had many letters wartime and ration time I love to read. . Also the ration books were full of the story of a family. Some had coupons left over for gas, which told me they couldn't travel, or didn't have a car. The butter, sugar were always gone The newspapers would have a title story on new shipment of sugar. This was news, The recipe section was full of wartime recipes to make bakery items Without milk, sugar and eggs. I know I heard my parents relate stories, as many of you can.
the last 40 years have been a land of plenty for us. I am not speaking of those that do not have means to buy groceries, but those that have the money... buy what they want. The grocery stores are full of items I never dreamed we would eat often, are available all year,!
perhaps this horrible time in our country's history will have a good side. Lessons learned. Hopefully the lessons I learn will carry with me the rest of my life.
i have come to the conclusion I lead a pretty good life. I am grateful for sure
