That's the spirit. Something tells me the majority

of Americans are going to be digging deep to feed their countrymen/women/kids in the weeks to come. I see people baking in their own kitchens and putting up a sign telling the hungry to knock on their door for food.

Heretic Coffee in Portland, Oregon has announced that starting Nov 1st they will provide breakfast to those in the community who will be facing hunger due to SNAP benefits not being sent out in November.

I don't want to embarrass her, so I'm going to try to do it on the sly.

I'm really scared for those who are dependent on SNAP.
