Now it sounds like you're ready for anything, bacpacjac!

It's close calls like these that can serve as reminders to assess one's preps. It never amazes me how many times I overlook an expired or used-up item, even with seasonal checks. Comfort items (like nacho chips) always seem to come up short, as I sometimes don't replenish them as they're not "vital". Yet when a snowstorm drifts us in, what do I rue not having the most? Comfort items.
