Warehouse retail chains Sam's Club and Costco are limiting how much rice people can buy. Story here. According to later updates from the Associated Press, BJ's Wholesale Club is holding off on imposing limits. Rice futures soared to an all-time high today; rice prices are up 70 percent. If you're inclined toward hoarding, now might be the time to join BJ's.

The Recipe Box Project:

If you want to contribute a recipe to The Recipe Box Project, please write it below. Also tell us where you got it (package box, cookbook, mom, friend -- include the name). We're looking for the kinds of dishes that people grew up on, that were served at family suppers, that tell a story, that are typically New England, or that you brought with you from a far away place to New England. We will print one of the recipes in the Food section once a month. To ask any questions, write to Debra Samuels, who is overseeing this project, at recipebox@globe.com. To discuss your recipes, click here.
