Food Hurricane Emergency Kit

Hurricane Emergency Kit · **4 Likes**

Just stocking up on essentials in case Irma pays a visit. I don't even want to tell you how much butter went into this project.

NIce shot. Very "magazine" style. It is also my style of emergency food. But seriously, I hope Irma (and Hector) don't give you too much of a rough time. I know how hard it is watching a big weather system slowly heading your way and knowing there is absolutely nothing you can do except wait and pray.

Worth every ounce Susan.

Hope that you all stay safe madam.

PS. Excellent image of proof of the cookies existence. At my house, they would only be a memory !!

. I also had a survival kit for Harvey, but it lacked the classy richness of your kit; mine just had stuff in cans (stuff containing EtOH) and brightly colored bags of really salty things vaguely related to potatoes, corn and popcorn.

A couple of more days of waiting for us. Fingers remain crossed.

Thanks for the kind comment. We evidently still have mice because they are disappearing fast.

Want to start a dessert swap? Two cookies for one cupcake. Sounds fair to me.

Sure! Let's do it. Right now. Do you have teleport?

We already have nasty weather here in South Florida, in Broward. It will be till Monday. Wind is getting stronger as the eye is closer. Still we are extremely lucky that the eye goes on the west side.
Hope you will not get much of Irma!

We are glued to the weather channel. We are most probably just going to get some strong winds and rain. Prayers for all you Floridians. That is one superwide path.

I'm just north of Melbourne but we're not getting much rain here yet. Mostly gusty winds. Since the change in the projected path is for west Florida we'll probably get flooding and high winds plus tornadoes in areas they are likely to touch down. Luckily, my house has stood through many a hurricane since it was built 1960, I'm not worried.

This is the right kit!

Glad you are not worried but I sure would be. Be safe.

Always thinking ahead, that's me. The bathtub is full of water, the generator has gas, food supplies (the healthy kind) are in the pantry, batteries, flash lights, lanterns, etc. are at the ready. Not we are just waiting and eating lots of cookies of course.
