Good morning hope you're having a good so far

It seems like there is less smoke here today-- The local NPR station said are quality was 143 and was un safe for sensitive groups though. I will not be exercising outside today again.

We we were first married, The DW had the idea that we needed to have things in the fridge at all times. I would want to cook a meal but found that there were ingredients missing. Lots of food would spoil that way! I started menu planning and grocery shopping based on the menu. No more spoiled food and the food bill went down!

My Family got out of Redding. My Mom was getting scared so they left Friday afternoon

I saw yesterday or maybe the day before, a young man was arrested and accused of starting 9 of those fires. What is wrong with some people?

Generally all our proteins go into freezer camp. The pantry gets filled with long self life stock. The refrigerator only gets enough perishables that can be consumed in a short period of time. When we plan menus, they are on the do first list. Most of our waste comes from cooking too much these days. Haven't had to cook for a big family for some time now. Was into more conservative portions and now a days meeting a demand. It doesn't help the food bill at all. But the pig stock is not complaining.

The Carr fire was causes by a disabled vehicle. The Yolo fire was caused by an improperly installed electric fence. The Santa Rosa fire was caused by poor maintenance by PG&E, our electric and gas company. Most other fires here are caused by lightening.

Arson is about 10% of the fires and usually not the major ones. It is a problem though!

When we were first married, we did not have money for a freezer and lived in a two bedroom apartment. We did get a freezer within 6 months though and have not been without one since!

I have been doing the menu planning and grocery shopping for 36 years now. It works well here!

Will work for food, as long as I don't have to cook!
