Grocery shopping was on the top of my priority list after church on Sunday. My shopping list for the family consisted of a few essentials - milk, breakfast sausage, lunch meat, bread - and then some non-essentials, like some treats for the dog! Gotta spoil them too.
So here it is a full week after the big thaw from the epic winter storm for the ages and a lot of the shelves in the grocery store are sitting empty. While doing my shopping at the Walmart on south Broadway in Tyler, I was met with a nearly empty milk refrigerator, an empty cooler for sausage and bacon, empty display racks where lunch meat should be along with a nearly completely empty aisle where bottled water is supposed to be. Those were the main things I was going to the store for, but they were out of what seemed to be everything. I took a trip to another store to complete my shopping list.
