Ooh...everybody's so excited 'cause you-know-who is leaving for China in 3 days. Don't get me wrong, I'm excited for her, too. And since it's been quite a while since I've guest posted here, I thought it time to let you all know that I've also been...preparing. 
Flora went and bought us things like "emergency chicken," frozen burritos, lots of frozen pizza. But it seems she forget some of the other "emergency" items your's truly may be needing. Remember, I'm the one who gets to spend the next 5+ weeks with two teenagers, one of whom turns 18 this week. How convenient one of us will be on the other side of the planet when girly will be found in Fishers exercising her vocal cords to the tune of, "I'm 18 now and do whatever I..." forgeting all the time that I've been standing ever so still with my fingers in my ears screaming "Lalalalalalalalalalala!"
The kids can have the emergency chicken; I'll stick with the emergency Chianti. So tonight I inventoried and will shop Friday afternoon. Your suggestions would be appreciated. Nothing too foo-foo; just the basics. The only thing I want to have to use as a mixer is ice. While I won't get to China, with some proper preparing on my part, I'll at least get to take off.
Chow mein, all!
Well from the looks of the pic you have almost everything you need..Kahlua to mix with your morning milk... and i see rum.. you might want to pick up a different kind.. i find if i drink enough of the Captain i dont care what the kids do.. if all else fails try some ouzo! i have heard several people tell me that they still cant remember what they did at my wedding..and there was a lot of that ouzo flying.
Good Luck John!!

I suggest Carnation Instant breakfast and vodka. You get the nutrition you need from not eating and the buzz from the booze which I think you really will be needing.
