Never mind. No need to publicize..

Yes there is,if it"s short and to the point.
If not you could make something up.

Headline: FDA bans baking. Mad rush on cooking supplies. Bakocalyse coming!

Ha... I am very well stocked for the Bakeopalypse. Wife made certain of that many decades ago.

Since the move I've been unable to find my smaller hand mixer, so I decided to add one into my grocery order this week, since I'm tired of this whole look for it can't find it routine I've been doing.

So I added one into the order, and a big red sign comes up - limit one per order!

And while I didn't want two, I'm wondering if there's some kind of shortage on hand held mixers going on, that I've not been informed of.

I mean really, they weren't on sale.. So what's up with the limit?

Since the pandemic cooking has become a huge thing in America. So a mixer shortage is not unexpected. Canning jars and lids are just now a year later starting to be back in stock most places. At one point a normally $12 case of canning jars was going for over $100 on Amazon. Only thing that got my garden harvest safely canned last fall was the fact that shortly before the pandemic hit I invested in reusable canning lids. LOL

I missed the canning shortage altogether, didn't realize it got that bad!

Yeah being home more is changing a lot of habits for some people...

I remember there was a big trend last year of folks baking bread during lockdown. I guess baking was a good hobby to pass the time for people stuck at home.

I've been amused looking up things people have been buying and doing during the pandemic. Some of the things people have been doing are pretty creative and some are downright funny.

Personally I like the mini-picnic benches for squirrels one guy built.

For me stuff like that is just another day for the most part.

I grew up with a stay-at-home mom who made everything from scratch and that is something I really appreciated and felt contributed to good health so I kept that up for myself and my own kids..

No need to have a bunch of unnatural preservatives in one's food... And homemade just tastes better.

I fully admit to buying a nordictrack bike early in the pandemic after a neighbor 200 yards away called the cops on me for jogging up and down my own driveway, alone, at 5:30 AM without a mask. TThe cop drove up and asked me if I saw anyone breaking quarantine around. I asked if I was doing anything wrong. He said "I don't see anything. I see someone trying to stay healthy."

What can I say I was not going to sabotage the 110 lbs I had already lost because a neighbor was paniced about a pandemic. Thats my excuse and I am sticking to it!

On the funny side of what to do during lockdown there is this

I did however reorganize my vape stash during the pandemic and can honestly said having had "THE bug" if I had still been smoking it probably would have killed me. It was no fun.

I do agree with OP.

Good place to start... must have the proper atmosphere.

Notice the bed and fireplace in the mirror.

Amen!
Homemade is always better!
