    Hi Sarah, thank you for your video. I've been having a really rough two days, feeling worthless and like life has no meaning for me. Your videos always make me happy and relaxed and give me a break from the thoughts in my head! I am always impressed with the foods at your food pantry! In Arizona, especially in the summer, most fresh food is rotten by the time you get to the food pantry.

      i'm sorry you are having a rough time. i have periods where my depression is bad and summer is the hardest time for me. do you have someone you can talk to? a good friend? a minister? local free counseling? try to reach out and get some help. it can get better. sending you hugs from my heart to yours.

      I hear a lot of food pantries operate that way giving out bags and boxes the recipient has to sort through. I like how my Food Pantry lets me shop inside. When I first began using the service, it was pick-up only. I had to go through the items carefully because often the bread had mold and packaging was not secure.

    FYI - ALL yogurt is pre and probiotic. They just use that as a selling tool. lol Not to say its not good for you, cuz it is, but that yogurt isnt better than any other as far as pre/probiotics. But it DOES say SUPER in the title which is fun! lol 2nd FYI - when I came to watch your video, it had 111 likes! That's an angel number!! My score of the month was 4 pounds of thick cut, extra smoked, deli department cut bacon at my food pantry last week! I separated it into about 12oz packages which is how much my hubby and I eat with a bit left over for his breakfast the next day. I was also blessed with a 5 pound chub of hamburger!
