I too discovered that when I did some " remodeling" all of my food went away, and I was almost done baking my first apple pie! It cost tons of time and "money" and I was really upset! Now I read that it costs to take things out of storage? I didn't even check for that, although I seemed to have depleted more than I thought with my remodeling project and that explains that. The only redeeming quality is that I got all my gems today that I was due from yesterday's game downloads.
