(And no, just because there's a Frito-Lay plant and an Archway Cookies plant within my radius does NOT make Fritos and cookies into local foods. Yes, I'm sorry too.)
Yogurt with apple and honey is an awesome local breakfast.
Running out the door and seeing a fridge full of raw squash and sweet potatoes is SO not awesome.
I need to do some cooking today so I can have food to eat for the rest of the week. Crustless quiche, roasted potatoes (sweet and white), baked potatoes, baked squash, lamb stew, more yogurt. If I spend a few hours cooking and baking then I can just grab a couple cartons from the fridge for breakfast and lunch when I'm gone all day.
Yesterday I hard-boiled some eggs, and I see many more of those in my future. I packed a lunch of an apple, some nuts (not my local black walnuts, but some leftover imports), a couple hard-boiled eggs, and the slab of Canal Junction Burr Oak cheese, a parmesan-style cheese that isn't within my zombie radius BUT would keep well enough to easily be traded for. Hopefully these guys have decent fortifications and will be able to keep making cheese post-apocalypse, because in my cheese-making days my cheese was fail. Made some decent cheese curds, though (mmm, squeaky cheese!). It was a good lunch.
