I have been thinking alot about food storage the last few weeks(it is always on my mind). I have been talking with Chad and others about things that we should do and what to have in our home. I have been to LOTS of stores and even bought a new rack to store it on. I have put together 72 hour kits, got more water and spent alot of money at Costco. Today I went to the Cannery in Lindon to see what they have and what you have to do and how much it cost. I only wanted one can of somethings not cases so a "Brother" (they call each other brother and sister) there told me if I could work for 30-45 minutes then he would let me buy one can of each of things I wanted if they had them on the shelve. So I did. I got right to work I counted out lids and bagged them up, stapled boxes and you know what? It was ALOT OF FUN!!! I want to go back sometime and do that again but next time I want one of you to come with me. I have been feeling alot better since I have been buying these things and not shoes and clothes(it has been a little hard since the hoiday is here). So friends and family go out and buy what you can. I told Chad whenever he buys stuff at the store to buy 3 so we have extra on had. I may sound crazy but working on this has given me a little peace of mind.Food storage is way more important than gifts in my mind! Tuesday, December 2, 2008
