While I was out dropping some homemade soup off to some elderly people in my neighborhood that I know, I decided to run to 7-Eleven to pick up some snacks. The store is on the same neighborhood as far as the energy grade, so they were 20 minutes on, and 20 minutes off, on the same cycle is my house. So, people had to wait while the power was off, and when the power came on it was cash only, because their connection to the credit card companies was down.

All I bought was some junk snacks that I really shouldn’t eat, but I felt like it.
 
Crushed tomatoes
Diced tomatoes

A bit more food. I'm channeling my inner MypinchofItaly with by cookie/biscuit selection:
57808


The heavy cream is from a local dairy, low/heat pasteurized, so I'll be making some creme fraiche with that. That canned whipped stuff is about the only brand of that type of product I can tolerate, but it's expensive.

Also got some good butcher-made sausages:
57809


That's a pork bratwurst. I was looking for more of a French-style pork sausage, but no luck. We have a lot of ethnic groups between Cincinnati and Dayton, but French ain't one of 'em, so no Frenchie links for me. Maybe in Cincy (these came from closer to Dayton)...

A quick trip to our local "refill" shop today enabled our tubs of brown lentils and green lentils to get up to near the top. We also indulged in some yogurt raisins and chopped dried figs, both of which go very nicely with a glass of good beer. Another bonus is that the woman who runs the shop is well up on her knowledge of cask beer and told us all about a new micro-brewery a few miles up the coast from where we live. An investigation will start in approximately 30 seconds.
