If I can just keep people munching it will be OK.

I hate to buy water, but don't have enough containers to just store tap water. Poor planning!

Husband went out and cleaned the gutters! That is not a regular event. This is serious!

One of my neighbors told me that he is washing out and filling up his various garbage and recycling bins to have water to flush toilets. Very creative!

Are we having fun yet!
Wait - you're WEST of Dallas and doing all this? Interesting. Also, are you really worried that if people don't constantly have food that they'll be unhappy? Are you hosting a dinner party or helping people through an evacuation? I mean, you're being nice and all, but it seems extreme.
