Bread of DOOM

[stillsostrange]

So I ended up with a bag of bruised apricots after the camping trip, and I decided I should make apricot bread. I ran to the store for flour and such, but forgot to get new yeast. When I finally started to make the bread, I discovered that my yeast was, as I had suspected, a) expired, and b) nearly gone anyway. It was now nearly 9 PM and just starting to rain, but I wanted the bread, dammit, so I dragged the boy off Wolfenstein and hustled to the car.

As we got to the store, it was thunder-hailing. We hustled into the store, intent on grabbing the yeast and getting the hell out of Dodge. Only to be greeted by HEB staff dragging everyone into meat lockers, because there was a tornado warning. So I spent fifteen minutes in the deli cooler texting matociquala while awaiting my doom.

The doom was postponed, and they finally let us go. This had better be some really good bread.

Bright side? It's better than Kurt's meatlocker experience.

Several years ago, the Albertsons's (which I hear is something else now) on 1431 and 183 was demolished in a tornado that ran through the parking lot. (Just got the store, too. I worked at that Wendy's for a few years. It was always the same building. Never got dead.) Anyway, everyone survived, but only because they put people in the walk-in. I saw the wreckage of the rest of the building. Was *flat*.

So I'm happy HEB kidnapped you. :)
