My comprehensive guide to food storage/Emergency preparedness I WISH I had when I began researching years ago!👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

Excellent Vid, outstanding pantry!
Use the freezer!!!!!!!!!!! I have an old non-working upright freezer (and it was free) in my storage room. I use it as a mouse-proof pantry for dry goods for short term. Especially those in paper or plastic bags... ramen, rice, oats, flour, taco seasoning pkts, gravy mixes, cake mixes, etc...
Great idea!
Great idea!!!
Freezers don't work without electricity.
Don't use freezer items when electricity is iffy, I grew up W/O it and no running water. Dried item were the best bet for us.
@@843andyville.5 she said it's extra space that's mouse proof for dry items
We started doing this a little while ago but when covid hit we tapped into our supply cause we were that financially strained. Now that we are back to normal job wise we've started up again, and sort of teamed up with my parents who also have a storage supply. We've been feeling a bit stressed knowing election is coming and winter and so much in the wind of "what ifs" but I hope our best will be enough. There's just so much talk out there and it's a constant concern in my house being my husband is military and gets called away for National guard purposes , and he wants to know the kids and I will be ok. Trusting God for the outcome ultimately though.
God will always see his people through 🥰🙏
Know God takes care of us when we belief. Thank your husband for his service. I m Goldstar wife. God Bless.
That is exactly what emergency supplies are for. Best of luck to you
This Corona Virus has everyone stocking up as well.
So smart to be stocking up and building your supply. I know God will bless and multiply your efforts :)
This pantry alone is what my dreams are made of! Holy. Moly. 😍 I love the size of my house but having a place for so much food storage would be amazing.
I personally could not stock Oreos, they would get eaten in a late night binge. I have a small packet of cookies hidden in the back of my freezer for the end of days, I'll take them on my bug out and eat them as the world ends. Out of sight out of mind. Props to you for having the control to actually stockpile Oreos.
Agreed. One oreo turns into 20....Its a never ending battle
I keep our cookies in a bread box on the back of the top shelf. So it takes a lot of work to get it down. Helps control the bing a bit more because they are out of sight in the box so when im bingy I grab what my eye can see.
I'm probably the one person on earth that dosent like oreos. 😂
Last week during a winter storm I was craving - seriously craving Oreos and it is not something I normally keep in the house. We made brownies and it worked .... kinda :-)
you would love my house i have jars and jars full of cookies all kinds oreo chips ahoy fudge stripes etc i bet i got at least 25 jars and growing
Don't be scared be prepared,a good moto to live by.
A start is great. Never buy anything you aren't sure if you will eat. Buy Quick Meals like Soups, Chili, Stew as well as long term foods.
And Do Not Forget Comfort Foods and Sweets
I used to stock on food/cleaning supplies while I was couponing . I stopped stocking up before the pandemic hit but still had an emergency kit with food in it. We never even used our emergency stash, we did find enough food at the stores during the pandemic so we were lucky here.
We use our spare/guest room. Put up light blocking curtains. Not too many people visiting now.
I got some cereal storage containers like yours from Amazon today. My family just can’t for the life of them roll down cereal bags in the cereal boxes. I figured maybe they would close the lid on one of these containers. 🙄 Great video and beautiful pantry. Would love to see more. A pantry like this is essential in recent times.
I mentioned earlier I'm disabled and when I heard things were getting bad I got myself a small freezer which such a great blessing it helps so much and I wanted to say thank you so much for taking time thank you for myself and everyone that sees this what a great blessing you are 💕🙏
My mom was big on food storage. After she passed away all the food that she had was eaten through or the big five gallon containers of flour and sugar were given to someone in the church. I wish I had food storage. When the pandemic hit it really made me think about getting it going. I started buying food but haven’t kept up with the food storage. Your video has given me the motivation to get started on it. Hopefully I do a better job this time. Thanks again for the motivation boost!
Your mom would want you to do this just for her peace of mind. I really pray my daughter has even better food storage than I do.
It can be fun, at least I think of it that way. :)
You can do it! Start small and cheap. Beans, rice, etc. Good luck :)
Wow, you so read my mind. My husband and I were just talking about getting more food storage because of all of the crazy things that have happened over this year and I am worried on what is to come. Great tips.
Your voice is like Drew Barrymore’s!👍😎
I was thinking the same thing lol
Haha i get that all the time!!🤣
She kinda looks like her too!
@@Votethepower right🙂
Yesssss! Her bottom half of her mouth is her! 😂 ❤️
I do the containers with the cereal too! I found SIX different cereals opened at once in the cabinet. No more! They eat the open one that is in the container before opening another cereal!
Nice! I went from feeling reasonable prepared to not prepared at all by the end of this video.

Excellent start! Join us at survivalistboards.com
That is a great way to start!
Wow it's crazy I have more than this on a regular basis..
Great start! Date and rotate by dates. Replacing as you use items, of course. And, add as you can- as much as you can. Blessings to you for sharing your list.
200 snacks yes, especially during stressful times. Recently, I got a chair, sat down looking at my pantry to see where I might need to fill in, and had about three of those snacks and I NEEDED them!!! All better now!!!
You can stockpile on bread by freezing it 🙂 We freeze hamburger buns, sliced bread, & muffins!
Yep!!
But if you don't have power it goes to waist.. I think thats why she said that its not stockpile food 😊
Absolutely!
Power runs out and you wasted precious food
@@faithittillyoumakeit4050 Many that live in the southern states, learned not to stock up the freezers during hurricane season, now generators are affordable for most. But canned food, and having ingridents for making bread and tortillas is peace of mind! Always have a back up plan!!!!!
Only store what you eat, and eat what you store. Canned goods last way way longer than the dates on the can. that is a marketing tool for the stores. Don't be taken in by them. Unless the can has blown (swollen) it fine use your senses smell look and possibly taste. If it looks smells off then discard it. Stay safe everyone. Love from the uk 🇬🇧
Yes, yes, yes!!! Stock up on what you regularly consume only when on sale and rotate it properly. If done right, prepping can actually save you money. For example, I know it is not technically food, but I go through a tub of Folgers coffee about every 2 weeks. I refuse to pay $10, $12, $15 a tub. I only buy it when it is on sale for $6.88 at Walmart, Giant Tiger, etc. every 3-4 months. I always have 20-26 tubs stored. That is a saving of about $150/year.
"If in doubt throw it out"
And misshapen cans shouldn't be eaten! I studied logistics and supply chain management. It would drive you insane to know how bad it is for you. So cans only in good conditions check if you drop them!
@@johncasey5594 yous are lucky with your sales in America! I'm in Ireland and we don't get sales like that at all unfortunately
@@theirishcailin333 I live in Canada. I think the same thing about the US. I watch US prepper videos, and I know our dollar is worth about 80% of the US dollar, but still the prices of many things are so much less. They are like, I bought this whole grocery cart of food staples for $20 and I am like I wish... that is at least $100 here.
This video was fantastic! It’s a subject I’m also passionate about. I even added some items to my list after seeing your supply. Thank you for doing this.
I keep a big black sharpie in my pantry and as I rotate with new items or do a general inventory I check dates. If something is coming up on it’s expiration or use by I’ll put a large visible X on it. Then that item is easily noticeable and is an item I plan to use in my next month of meals. My friend’s grandma used a grease pencil on her home canned jars the same way but would mark jars she felt had been in her pantry past her self imposed use by. I don’t mark more than a few items a year but it helps keep me accountable in that if too many of the same item end up marked in a given cycle I know to scale back or not repurchase because tastes change. For longer term storage it’s smart to rotate those into your regular pantry in a staggered pattern when they’re a few years out so you can restock with dates that extend out further. That way your stock never truly stagnates. Think moving targets when thinking of expirations. You should be rotating enough they just keep moving forward with you.
Please note that "Best By" dates are NOT expiration dates. For canned foods, as long as the seal isn't broken, the food is safe to eat. As long as the seal is intact, nothing can get into the container to spoil the food. Yes, over time there can be some nutrition loss, plus, flavor, color and/or texture changes. These don't affect safety, as long as the seal is intact. Please do learn the signs of spoilage: bulging cans, excessive foaming, foul odor, mold and unexpected color changes.
I use a Sharpie and put the Best By date (month/year) on the front of the package where it is easily seen. This is done to make sure we use the oldest first. FIFO inventory management system. First In, First Out. The easiest way to do this, IMO, is to have a simple rule. Nothing goes onto a pantry shelf until it is dated. That means a bag of canned goods will sit on the floor, until I have time to put them where they belong using FIFO. Since they are in the way, that's a good motivation to get the job done. :-)
@Cyndi Rothrock
What a blessing🙏❤🙏👵
@Cyndi Rothrock
Good girl!!😂
Such a smart thing to do, and wonderful that you started 3 years ago with what is going on in the world right now. Bless you, Hughes. Love your videos so much!! Your house and property is just beautiful!!!
Once I’m stocked up on something, as soon as we eat one, I replace it. Most thing I have 3-6 months but peanut butter and coffee, I have a year
WOW! That's all I can say!!! I've never seen anybody as prepared as you are. That is outstanding! My little apartment can't handle more than a 3 mo storage and that is using under the bed, closets, etc. Amazing job!!
What a great video! Thank you. A subject many will avoid but one that is so necessary. Again, thanks for tackling such a needed topic.
It is such a blessing to have a pantry. great job. You are well-prepared.
You are so organized. I love it! You’re a good mama, and your husband should be very proud of you. 👍💖
So organized. Looks great. Y'all are a beautiful family.
Subscribed your a very wise woman best most helpful video I’ve seen for food storage and organizing. I work endlessly in my storage and still shopping 🛍 God bless I too have prepped for several years.
Thank you Ashley! I have been slowly building my own stock pile and your video made me think of a few other items I could add.
OMG! Love your videos.. The effort you put into making them is amazing!
Emma Smith Ahh thank you so much!!❤️❤️
I've been working on mine since 2012. If you go grocery shopping weekly, purchase 10 extra cans each week and in 1 year you will have 520 cans stored up in 1 year. If you eat 3 cans of food per day, one for Breakfast, one for Lunch and one for Dinner. This will give you a 173 day food supply. This is 9 to 10 days shy of a half year supply. After 3 months move all your new cans in your pantry and bring up the oldest for consumption.
You may want to look into long rerm prepper food. These can have a shelf life of 20 to 25 years.
Start prepping now because you don't know what tomorrow may bring. Make sure you also have a garden as a backup. Learn to hunt and fish also as a backup.
I love this,it's a great time to start
WOW. I LOVE YOUR YOUR LARGE FOOD PANTRY and how organised it is.Be still my heart. Wish my home had space for a pantry like that. Good quality video. Thanks for taking your time and explaining clearly. Yes more videos on UA-cam. There is a need.
Ashley, I loooove your pantry! Thanks for the inspiration!
I'm so glad to find your channel. Thank you, your explanations are so thorough and easy to follow.
I love your food storage room! So nicely organized. Thanks for sharing.
This video is so helpful! I am trying to build my 3 month supply right now. I too find the upcoming election and flu/covid season to be very strong reasons to get this handled now.
You've done an amazing job. I know the work involved but isn't that feeling of food security great? Very organized and well thought out. Thank you for sharing it.
Please do more videos on this 😊 thank you loved the video! Very, very helpful
Wow! So impressive! I love the organization and the detail you provided. Thanks so much!!!
PLEASE MAKE MORE VIDEOS LIKE THIS!!!
ALSO, I just subscribed because I love how you did this...I will work at doing this too....crazy crazy time to be a momma.
I have some 'forever' food stored but if I did have an emergency I would be so nervous...not sure if anyone would eat rehydrated camping food. They are way too picky but I guess beggars can't be choosers and they would quickly learn to be greatful once all the 'choices' were gone
Great, great video. Such good info for new peppers. Thank you for doing this to help people get ready. Blessings
Thank you so much for this video Ashley! This has inspired me to get it together and get our emergency food pantry together asap. I am sharing this video with family and friends and also plan to stock up on laundry supplies, over the counter meds, paper goods including disposable dishes and silverware, batteries, lighters, etc. We have a gas grill to cook on but I am also looking for a hot plate that runs on batteries or car lighter. Let me know if you can recommend one. Thanks and God bless!
I’ve been thinking about this so much lately! Thanks for these tips!! Super jealous of your food storage area 🤪 also love the pantry!!
Great pantry. We have a working pantry and a resupply pantry both of which are in closet space. Before stocking them we removed everything and painted the walls and ceiling with the whitest high gloss paint we could find so the area is brighter.
It's good that you stockpiled matches, Jarden (producer of Diamond Matches) factory has shut down.
This is so fascinating! I'm stocking up for the next few weeks. It might get crazy.
Well done! Once you have a well stocked pantry then you can buy everything when it's on sale and buy as many as you can knowing what you will consume in a reasonable amount of time. Dehydrating and canning is another tool for long term food storage, if you can follow a recipe you can pressure can food. I buy most of our meats on sale then I can it, ground beef, beef, pork, chicken, turkey, fish it makes for very quick meals. Storing items in glass gives it a longer shelf like than storing it in cardboard or plastic (Ball makes half gallon jars). Freeze all flour for a few days before adding to the pantry, it kills off any eggs or bugs that cause it to go bad quicker, keep all nuts in the freezer if you can, they will last twice as long. I always store my yeast in the freezer till I open it, then it stays in the fridge after that, lasts twice as long that way. An extend pantry has always been a lifestyle for us, something my grandmother taught us (a single parent during the great depressing).
I started doing this in 2018 and I have done exactly what you have done. I cleaned out the storage downstairs and started buying extras and rotating. It’s taken a long time to get what I have but I’m now confident we have enough food to at least last roughly 6-8 months. I also have seed vaults and We are working on a garden soon.
I thought about starting a garden in my backyard but I am not joking when I say that if it is a plant - I can kill it. :-(
@@JenniferPerryMyScraproom Then get youself more Educated on Gardening and what vegetables need to grow and thrive. So many Videos to learn from. Gardens take alot of work and commitment, but it could keep you from Starving. Education is the Key!!
What I have to say is awesome and whatever is going on right now you moms have it so together. I grew up that all homes had pantries built like that in every home and now it's just cabinets that dont hold much, changing times I guess.
Great job stocking for your family. I strongly suggest for your dry goods that you get them into some sort of airtight container to ensure you don't attract bugs. I store mine in juice and 2 liter soda bottles, for example, with an oxygen absorber. They will last for years that way. You can also put little things like your cornbread mix, muffin mixes in food saver type bags.
Thank you so much for all the valuable tips.
I truly enjoyed your video. Thank you for stressing the importance of having a stockpile without creating fear. I could stare at your pantry all day lol!
Ashley just incase you didnt know it is not suggested to store canned goods with the rings still on. If the seal were to come loose the rings can reseal the lid. You wont know and could get sick from the food.
Please don't take this any way but out of love and concern.
Thank Jen. I was wondering why on so many prepper videos I saw, the people didn't have the rings on the jars. Smart.
@@johncasey5594 you are welcome. Also it is not suggested to stack jars also for the same reason. The weight of the jar on top could reseal another jar. I just want to make sure people are safe
I have been doing this already as much as I could before the pandemic I'm disabled and have been for 20 years so when I could go to the food banks and they would help me get it to my vehicle I was able to carry in a little at a time then my daughter would come over and help me such a great blessing and you have some really good ideas to help thank you and God bless you I pray you all are safe 💕🙏
@@edithmfletcher6515
You as well🙏❤🙏👵
Love your video, so useful and make sense for your family.
Wow that’s a lot of food. My food storage is at the grocery store. Even during the height of the pandemic, there was never a problem getting food in my area. I feel bad for people in areas where there was no food available.
Thankfully we had food storage when this all happened, but I went to the store to grab some chicken and a few items on our weekly shopping list, and there was NOTHING. Literally nothing in our stores! I remember walking down the baking isle and only seeing sprinkles of powder left on the shelves where the flour, sugar and spices once were. Every isle was empty. Not a single can left on any shelves. It was an eerie feeling. And let’s not forget about the toilet paper shortage of 2020🤪 Our grocery store has just recently been able to keep stock! But that took 6 months to go back to normal there!
Where do you live that you never experienced shortages during the pandemic?
Where do you live that there wasn't a problem with food supplies?
This looks like a smaller version of my extreme couponer stockpile. LOVE IT !!! Best part, wait for coupons/deals & get it all FREE :) Your decor & makeover videos are so amazing.
I need to find a couple of those cans of ground beef. I have a smaller version of a food storage pantry but there is only 3 of us - all adults now. We are currently coming out of the Texas Winter storm of 2021 and grocery stores are bare. My pantry and working pantry has come in very, very handy during this time.
I watched and listened to the whole video just to get my Utah accent fix. Great job on the pantries and supplies!
I can all my meats. Beef chunks, plain hamburger, taco flavored, chicken in pints & quarts, pork chunks, ham chunks, meatballs, bacon. Veggies, I can get cheap. My garden is not that big. Tomatoes and hot peppers mostly. Canning for me is therapy. It also heats the house up in the wintertime. You do not can in the south when it's 90 degrees outside. So I save my prepped meats in the freezer until it gets cold.
I live in a small space, so I cleared out the cabinets in my laundry room, and that's where I stockpile most of my food. I was also able to find additional space in my furnace room, which was built extra big.
Beware that heat shortens life of stocked food. Perhaps you could switch out items on floor of closets to heater room & laundry room.
Agree. November will be nuts. I feel like just going to the store may be scary for a little while. Rioting, looting etc. And then add in a possible shortage of food. I would much rather just stay home if the streets are crazy. People think about food stock piles, but some don't think about personal care items too, those are very important, especially meds and first aid items. Also another thing to stock up on would be gas. If you have gas cans, fill them up, gas wont stay good for a super long time, but good to have on hand for generators. We live in upstate NY, so with our winters we always try to be prepared for generator use anyway. Thank you for sharing
YES!! My thoughts exactly. We might just not WANT to go out towards the end of the year due to riots/more sickness etc. who freakin knows! If this year taught us anything it’s that ANYTHING at anytime can happen! With little to no warning! Why not be prepared, even if it’s just a few weeks worth of “extra!” 🤷🏼♀️
We have another bedroom in our basement we’ve converted to storing supplies (so anything that’s non-food) and I will go through all that in another video ASAP! Things people don’t think about like toothpaste, shampoo, dish soap, laundry soap (we even have a hand washer in case no electricity to wash clothes) and let’s not forget about toilet paper 🧻😂 I’ve really tried to think of everything we could possibly need with “no power” since losing power has happened to us so often this year. We are right on a fault line and had a few earthquakes this year but we’re expected to have a BIG one any time. We probably wouldn’t have power for weeks or even months if that happened. Again, I think it’s just smart to prepare for anything that could happen for where YOU live! Some people are hit with tornadoes, hurricanes, etc. prep for what you think you need most!👏🏻
@@ashleyhuze Awesome. Yes we use our basement, our large pantry and also have a separate area in our work out room for our paper prods and shampoos , laundry soaps etc. It's great to be prepared. It is a great feeling. Keep up the great work !
I bought a big deep freezer in February. It has been such a blessing for food storage! I HIGHLY recommend you look into getting one. It’s much easier to get bread once a month and stick the extras in the freezer. Cheeses as well. So much of a game changer.
Freezers don't work without electricity.
She clearly states that.
My hubby & I enjoyed your video so much that we subscribed. Your a keeper !
I’ve never seen anything like this.....wow!
Thank you! Very informative and helpful! Trish
What a great idea!!!!!!!! My Mom grew up in the depression era so she would have a stocked pantry and in the winter it was great if we could t get out due to the weather. Its just my husband and I but we do something similar
Omg food is so cheap in the US. Here in Brazil, only very wealthy people would be able to keep this amount of food. Just so you have an idea of prices, here a 5 kg bag of rice costs like RS 35,00 or more nowadays. Even with the Pandamic, we cannot afford that. We have to leave our homes to buy food at least once a week. 🇧🇷❤️❤️❤️
This is not a normal household income
Yes, I agree, food must be very cheap in the US. I'm an Australian living in Indonesia and we cannot afford to buy this much food let alone have the space to store it.
🙄🙄🙄🙄
I personally do not stockpile this much, even for a family of 5. I find we waste to much by expired food. Even mayonaise expires too quickly for us. I keep a large bag of flour, yeast, rice and beans, since we dont eat so much processed foods. I try to use up as much as possible before I restock.
What is RS? I tried looking up the conversion to USD, but the search results only mentioned BRL, not RS.
For reference, as of today 3500 BRL = 637.42988 USD per a web search. If you were referring to BRL and not RS, your rice is extremely expensive compared to what we pay in the U.S.
Kira Hill R$ is what we use in Brazil before writing an amount of money with numbers. And food in Brazil is way more expensive than in the US. That is why we cannot afford to have that much food. We have to buy groceries frequently. R$35,00 reais can only buy six american dollars. In my first post I used the letter S but the correct one is $.
I would recommend getting the can rotation rack so you don't have to worry about taking the cans out from the front and back.
Meijer's grocery store in Wisc also has Keystone canned beef & pork varieties stocked well this week.
Great tips. Need to hit the market now😄
Your supply is great, my next recommendation is finding storage containers to put some of it in because if you get rodents then you're going to lose the bagged/boxed stock you dont have to open up the food but you could put food in plastic boxes/containers. (they can chew through plastic as well but it would take them longer)
Hi! Am new and just want to let you know I soooo love this video. Thanks for sharing. Education on how you rotate your food, too! I will check for the meat in my local Walmart. I will be prepared and will work on canning as I just received the complete set and how to make butter! Love your channel! 🧚🏻♂️
Well done. Thanks for sharing. I'm working on a 1 month supply of food for my family of 3.
Yes. I have a pantry just like yours. One that is long term and the other is working. One of my biggest fears is not being able to feed my family.
Awesome video! TFS!
Wow! I’m impressed!
Loved this vid for two reasons: 1) I had the same sweater (well, very close) back in the early 90s, fun to see it's back in -- wish I hadn't gotten rid of mine now, lol. 2) My quasi-OCD brain appreciates that you keep things together on the shelves in the same way I would, It makes me cringe a bit to watch pantry vids where they store things vertically (some pasta on top shelf, middle, bottom) or hodge-podged illogically.
Thank you for this vlog. Very good info
Love! Love! Love it!
I love this concept! I don’t have food storage or a pantry but I try to keep my cupboards full with beans, noddles, soups, etc.
I hate the plastic waste of water bottles, but may have to end up getting a package. I’ve thought maybe to get one of those portable water filter system things so I could run to a lake or stream nearby and fill up on water to drink or cook with. Found one for $18 so not too bad!
Also save seeds from last harvest or packets because they were impossible to find with Covid! I didn’t even get a garden in, but I know I have seeds somewhere so I’ll have to find them for spring!
Anyway, Thanks for the video! 😊
For cooking cow milk, drive up to Logan “Gossner Foods”or to North Salt Lake “Lee’s Grocery Store,” They sell milk that will last for years as a liquid on the self. You can also buy Ghee at Costco which is bottled butter.
Great video ty so much for this supply tour !! Fantastic storage n supply
I just purchased my second, 5 shelf system from HD. When I got the 1st one there were six on the shelf, 9 days later they were sold out and I had to try another store.
That was great thanks! You guys are too cute at the end 😊
Key fact, store what your family likes!! I like barley personally so I store it. How many times have I heard someone say oh I stock this, it's not our favourite but. I stock what I eat and eat what I stock. Rotation makes a pantry work.
pantry goals 😍🤯😵
Use a Closet if you can, that stays cool n dark
Amen sister! Wish I had your space!
This was one of the easiest videos on this topic to follow and replicate. Thank you for sharing this! New subscriber!
Do you store cleaning supplies, paper goods, medical supplies, clothing, flashlights, batteries, something to cook on?
Great informative video.
I have a big supply of #10 cans from the Home Storage Center too, and I love being able to buy there (10 minutes from my house, y’all!)
Anyway, I wanted to say to I use it, and the reason I do is so it’s on a sloooow rotation. I’d rather buy a case of X every so often than discover it’s gone wonky on me and throw that case is #10s away.
Everyone has their method, and that’s cool. Just wanted to chime in with my method.
Really love your pantry! You’ve clearly made it a priority in your life 🙏
💕 😲 WOW!!!
Disciplined lifestyle! Thank you 🙏🏽 for sharing! (At this rate a bedroom may require refurbishment to be a food storage space 😁}. Due to lack of space!
You've done a 👍🏽😃 great job!
I started prepping a few years ago. I living in hurricane country and am a military veteran, so I'm a firm believer of being prepared for everything. My issue is not having enough space. I'm trying to figure out a system that works, but I only have two cabinets I can use at the moment for canned goods. I do have access to a deep freezer and we have a big garden, so we've been able to freeze lots of fresh veggies. We live on a big farm and are trying to be as self sustainable as possible at least when it comes to growing as much food as possible. We had a very good year for veggies. We're going to try to grow strawberries and fruits next year.We're also doing more watermelons and things like that. I'd love to be able to grow apple trees and some kind of orange or pears at some point, but I don't know if our climate will tolerate that or not.
Put a couch type table behind couch. This can be 5 gallon buckets stacked two high with board across them. If buckets pick over top of couch, put cloth on board. End tables can also be buckets with board. Totes can be stacked as end tables. Coffee table can be 2 totes with lovely cloth covering. Side table by bed, again totes. I pick up totes @ my local thrift. Most of the time they have no lids, but I put my items in glass jars to store. Lay a board across & good to go. Deep bookcases could have books in front & 1 to 2 rolls of stacked cans behind. God bless.
Everyone needs a storage pantry! I Used to only buy food to cook daily with no food in house until I was in a financial hole and was hungry and no family member had pity! They just looked at me and said you've got something at home to eat! Well since then I've stocked my house and even turned my office into a partial prepping pantry and I feel good! And stocking pantry is a addiction!
Great Video. Thank you!!
I open the boxes of snacks and sort them into gallon ziplock bags and store them in a storage container. Saves room om the shelf for something else.
What a darling baby!❤️❤️❤️
Ashley, I have so many questions! You have so much cereal. Does it go stale before you can eat all of it? Do you use the milk now, or do you just save it? I’ve had so many things expire in my pantry, then I feel like I’ve wasted money.
