Celebrate the Start of Hurricane Season with Carlo Biagi Beads!




Carlo Biagi Two Palm Trees Bead

Yesterday was the beginning of the Hurricane Season for the Atlantic, and today I found the trusty 2011 Hurricane Preparedness Guide with all the reminders and lists to help keep you safe should a storm come your way. The season lasts for 6 months and when you think about how long that is, you should just be prepared all the time! That way you don't have to go broke looking for supplies when a storm is imminent.

Here in Central Florida, when you see people leaving the grocery store with more than one or two gallons of water in their basket you know you better turn on the news and then make your decision on whether you should stock up yourself. It is kind of comical to see the patterns and habits of people year after year, and the most important things to have besides water are:

• candles
• matches or lighters
• batteries
• a flashlight
• junkfood
• and a freezer full of ice

My new Hurricane Preparedness Guide has all the storm names that someone already picked out (who gets paid to do that? And just how much do they make??!!). The first name is Arlene, OMG, I know someone in South Florida with that name and she is probably freaking out about that right now!! I doubt seriously that I will EVER see my name as one being used for a storm, but if I ever do I think I will just sit back and have a drink!
