Are you ready for the snow?


No, I don't mean salt & shovels - I'm talking snacks. Potato chips, nachos, snausages, ice cream, pizza, and don't forget to rent some movies! The snow is coming and it's time to stay home for a few days - God willing.
Marylanders are infamous snow wimps, but it wasn't always that way. When I was a kid, people made heroic efforts to get to work and would never let a little snow stop them. Now, after 27 years of wage cuts, reduced benefits, union busting, & ever increasing job dissatisfaction, people stay home when the weather gets bad. Employers think this is a coincidence.
Last night we ran the aisles, buying everything from red bananas to capers. I don't even know what a caper is, but they looked tasty.
