^Do you have bakerys open?
The bakery in my New World is full of yummy bakery, lots and lots of yummy goodies, makes wo Der if they are hogging all the flour for themselves.

Bakeries buy flour, sugar, butter, et al in bulk. Like 25/50/100 lbs. So the grocery store 5/10 lb bags are a different matter. I think people are buying more flour because they are cooking at home more. I'm a home baker and have always had flour at hand, but now it is really hard to find. But my husband found a delicious bread recipe and we have been making bread every other day. So I think that might be why it's hard to find.

We bought a furnace filter, dog treats and cleaning products at the hardware store today. We wear masks, practice sd and wash up totally when we get back. Who knew this would be our lives now?

I bought some groceries and ....a pack of 4 toilet rolls yesterday! :O They had bigger packs but there's only 2 of us in the house and I reckoned bigger families would need those more.

Yep (and I never thought I'd say these words) it's great to see toilet rolls on the shelves :P

I just managed to find some hand sanitiser online at a not-too-silly price so ordered a couple of bottles.
Who's the cat that won't cop out when there's danger all about?

I've given up on hoping to get hand sanitiser. :( I wear disposable gloves when I'm shopping. I bought them a year ago for using when I do messy crafting. There's a technique for using tissue paper that bleeds colour when it gets wet. Makes interesting backgrounds or card for die cutting.

I got mine from a company called cobraprotect, they still have smaller bottles left from what I can see, though all the large bottles are sold out.

No, they haven't had flour in store for a few weeks - actually not getting it in, Until yesterday, they had flour in this flimsy plastic bags - I picked up one and poof flour all over me - if I brought one of these instore made bags by the time I got home most of the flour would have fallen out and/or the bag would break, not including the high price of it. Shocking!
If fat means flavour then I'm ******* delicious!

I have one bag left of flour after the canister in the kitchen. Never really realized how quickly I go through flour lol.

And, I think I'm in trouble. I was looking up dollhouses for my kid for rainy days and Calico Critters brand looks just way too cute. /bank. And I swear I'm not going to let her know all the pain I have known

Just bought some toilet paper, 2 maynards sour candy (too sour but new flavors), peanut butter cookies, 2 apple juices and a cranberry/raspberry juice. Nice to see the store is now stocked up with tp although still one per person store policy.

Every time I read "tp" this pops into my head...
