The Gman in Nevada gave them 2 weeks last week. I did end up running to the store... got 2 gallons of milk in the freezer, some hamburger, and some cheap chicken legs... all separated and repackaged. I also picked up another 12pk of TP... so I have 4 twelve packs... I think that will last us for awhile. I have been buying them with my regular grocery shopping the last couple of months whether I needed them or not... I didn't want to get stuck with inferior TP this time!

We are only down to Cottonelle by us. Had no choice but to buy it. Luckily we still have lots of Charmin.

I like how Emy "relaxes" in her pjs for Saturday donuts. By the way, what is her favorite donut? Also, I'm starting to see some new, subtle facial changes, from baby to toddler. Very cute!

Thanks, Minnie...!!!
She’s skippin’, dancin’, and runnin’ all over the place, talkin’ up a storm, and she’s definitely lookin’ more “growed” up...!!!!!

As far as the donuts go, they are vegan and come from a local place (only 2 stores) called Wheatsville Co-op. Not sure, specifically, what they are, but, they mix it up, so they’ve had white icing, chocolate icing, pink icing, sprinkles, and white and chocolate icing together.
I always have their apple fritter...!!!!!

@Rista1313 I made the root veggie mash. OMG, it was fantastic! I added a large carrot to it, and used coconut milk and avocado oil instead of butter and regular milk. Also added some garlic and onion powder. Thanks for sharing this. Everyone loved it.

So glad you liked it... we love it.... sooooooooooooo good!

Cottonelle is dreamy compared to the Aldi So Soft brand! I buy the Aldi strong brand (red wrapper), which is basically Charmin.

Does anyone know if the characters are at any of the character dining experiences?

I don’t think but not sure. My friend @Tuvalu would know.

Construction for TRON is going well. They were doing slow things. Not many workers present.

Does anyone know if the characters are at any of the character dining experiences?

Topolino’s Terrace (breakfast)
Garden Grill (lunch/dinner)
Hollywood and Vine (lunch/dinner)
Chef Mickey’s (breakfast beginning in Dec)

The characters do not come to your table but are distanced and get close enough for a picture with them in the background.

I finished!!! Only took me what, 6 months!

Shall we share our support towards your death wallet?

There's one I fully supported going in the cart! My kids watched Ratatouille so many times the dvd we had has seen better days so the Blu Ray/DVD/digital combo pack was well worth it for 12 or 13 dollars

I found several brands at Walgreens. Got my Angel Soft which lives in my bathroom and no one else may take.

I upgraded to the new IPhone 12 Mini Yesterday. The young man at the TMobile store was very nice. He did my transfer for me. It did not take long at all. I am loving my new phone. My last phone was bigger. I am glad that I went back to the smaller phone.

I wouldn't go any smaller than my Galaxy S8. My hands are fairly large for a woman, so it's actually perfectly comfortable for my hands. Plus, I'm already far-sighted, and anything smaller would kill my eyes. I have to use the magnifying tool far more that I'd care to admit if I'm not wearing my glasses.

This is one of the things my mom got for her birthday:

Do you also repackage the milk into smaller bottles? Or just the meat? My ex's parents live in the middle of nowhere, 70 miles from the closest grocery store, on a pretty bad road. So they would go to the store once a month and stock up on everything and put it in the freezer.

We only lived 40 miles from the big grocery stores. There was a grocery store in our town, but it had awful produce and everything was overpriced, so we only bought the daily necessities like milk and bread there, or emergency supplies in a pinch....like, blizzard is coming, better get some canned goods and things that don't have to be cooked in case the power goes out. But the rest, we got once every 2 weeks or so. Mom always bought meat in bulk and redistributed it into smaller packages in freezer paper and froze them. And we only had fresh produce when we got into "town" to the bigger stores. Most of the time we had canned or frozen. But we didn't repackage milk.

Bying TP periodically is a smart move. I always buy the 40 roll packs when they are on sale, and I had just bought 2 of them when corona hit, so we were ok until things settled a bit and there was no shortage anymore. And I just bought 2 more a week or so ago when it was on sale again, because we were getting low. It makes me wonder what other people do. Apparently most don't keep a stash?
