I AM not angry and afraid any more. That sense of frustration and foreboding was lifted exactly one week ago. But now I have about 130 eggs in my fridge. And quite a stack of frozen pizzas. In my pantry is a large bag of rice, several loaves of bread, many packets of instant noodles and canned food.
It was fear that made me quietly stock up, just in case. Unfortunately, I did it so quietly that I forgot to tell my husband who had the same thought and on the eve of polling day, he came home with three trays of eggs and six loaves of bread.
