Depending on the grocery store to be open? 
Perhaps THIS will light a fire under your butt. Or maybe THIS report. Some highlights include:* Due to the financial crisis farmers can’t get loans to grow food
* In the U.S. 7 million fewer acres of crops were planted this year
* China’s crops failed by 40% due to drought
* Brazil, Paraguay and Argentina are also 40% less in yields from last year
* California is the #1 food & agriculture producer for the U.S.
* California is in a huge drought
* Our natural gas lines run over the San Andreas fault several times including the Cajon Pass
* 60% of SoCal water is imported
* 3 major water importing pipelines for SoCal run across the San Andreas fault

Hmmm...is it any wonder we’ve been asked to get a food & water storage? Is it any wonder we’ve been asked to learn to grow a garden? Someday, the food you grow will be the food you eat. We are one earthquake away from chaos. I believe it won’t be the earthquake that will be so devastating, it will be the aftermath. No water, no food, no fuel. If the freeways are damaged, no one can get in and no one can get out. If no food can get out of California, what will that do to the rest of the country? Sounds like the perfect storm, indeed. Things are going to get really ugly really fast. Take care of your families. Get to work!

Thanks Carrie! I know I need to get on top of it. I have some but definately not enough.
You are SOOOOOOOOOOO right. Where did you get your info? I want to read those articles. I SOOOOOOOO wanted to brag on my blog a few months back that we had completed our "one year" supply for all 5 in our family....but I didn't want to publicize and make my family a target when disaster strikes.\"/ Now, we have another kid, and have to start again so we have enough for 6 people.
