Preparing for Sandy

What's on YOUR storm survival list?

As we batten down the hatches and prepare for Sandy to blow by our island, we gather our "must haves" should we be shut in for days...The usual batteries & candles...charge up the phones...fill the cars w gas (after we get approval on the loan application! LOL!)....

Back when we were kids, for reasons still unexplained, our moms has "bread & milk" on the top of the list everytime...My sweetie & I still mock that and have a good laugh every pending store shopping...

These days my requirements have changed....The "must haves" on my list are Cigarettes & Diet Pepsi....
