If it's not too late in your area, don't forget to put out your food donations for the mail person.

1. Left a whole bag out....

...I even had bottled juices/spritzers in there. Soups, beans, oat groats, canned veggies, canned olives, canned chili, canned ravioli, etc.

8. Wow, great selection.

I have forgotten previous years, so I left the stuff out in the kitchen where I would see it first thing in the morning - and now it is by the mail box.

14. I have to leave stuff like that in front of the door on the inside. That way I have to move it...

...to get out!

Some of what I had was forgotten from a previous food drive. We had a local food pantry burn down a few months ago and places all over town were collecting food to replenish their supplies in their new place. I kept forgetting to bring the stuff with me to deposit it in the bins around town! Arrrgh! So I checked the dates on all the stuff I had - All still OK - then picked up a little more and blocked my door inside with the bag. When I left home, I put it outside the door. Got home and it was gone!

'Twas my good deed for the day. Besides, I like America's Second Harvest.

2. i got a thank you card for my donation...n/t

[lonestarnot]

4. Nice gesture on the thank you deal, but if they drop that, how much more food would it buy?

[Warpy]

3. This kinda creeped up on me

and I buy most of my stuff in bulk from the co op, so I was only able to leave soups, a BIG jar of peanut butter, some tomato sauce.

But it's better than the nothing that a lot of hungry people have right now.

5. Hungry people thank you Warpy!

And Blue would too!

[Triana]

15. I'd be willing to bet that stuff will be put to great use!

It's ALL good!

10. Two bags under my mailbox, waiting.

Tuna, rice, beans, soup, veggies...even some candy for the kids. Dedicated part of my last shopping trip to this food drive.

16. Dang it. I was too busy helping the neighbor try to find her daughter.

I was going to put a bag of food out. Mail came at 4pm.

18. I put my bag of food out on my porch by the mailbox first thing this morning

and it's still sitting there at 6:20 p.m. Nobody ever picked it up. :(
