hmmm hadn't thought about that... lol. although I have one place in mind that I think might be open; there's a lot of money to be made if they do indeed open up! and if not, there's always leftovers from yom tov.

Make extra chicken soup erev second days and freeze in disposable containers. Cook some Gefilta fish logs (throw a can tom sauce on top and bake.) chicken - roast. Rice - (easy recipe I use every week: 2 cups rice, 4 cups water, 3 tbsp soy sauce 3 tbsp oil 1/4 cup soup mix stir together and bake (I think @ 45 mins) ) - nobody will want to look at potatoes. Stir fry some geen beans (frozen) with some tomatoe sauce - I add a spice called garam masala which ppl like.

I have lots of frozen challa in chametz freezer but will prob. make fresh (in my bread machine - best challa in the world). Nothing like freshly made challa the day after pesach!!!!

why the "oy"? In Chabad you can sell chametz gamur.

In the freezer I have homemade challos and fish with vegetables. I have a pantry and freezer full of cake and crackers etc.

"oy" is for those who eat everything up and have to first go shopping!

I sold my chametz gamur but would not say I am fully stocked at all!
thank goodness there is a 24 hour supermarket around the corner. motzei pesach it is filled with many confused husbands trying to find things! the next day, there is no pasta or cheerios left!

And someone told me that her rav, Rabbi Leibel Katz (not Chabad), also permits selling chametz gamur.

you could go out and buy a box a cookies, eat that and then have a pesachdik shabbos - would that be enuf?
