In
April I spent a fair amount of time in my kitchen and I accomplished a lot. I was able to complete most of the spring canning projects on my list, fill up the deep freezer in the garage and restock
the LTFS shelves as well as fill in some gaps in my kitchen pantry. With no more space on the shelves or in the
freezers I am pressing the pause button for a while and for the next two months
I only plan to purchase fresh produce, dairy items and replace frozen
vegetables and pantry staples as I use them at the best possible prices.

I
completed a personal goal, which was to have a two year supply of shelf stable
and frozen foods in my LTFS for two people.
I do believe, if push came to shove, and as long as I was very careful, between what is in the deep freezers
and on the shelves I could live off of what I have without shopping for at
least two years. However, in order to do
this I wouldn’t be able to donate food or help those in need so I do still plan
to buy items on sale when I can so I am able to do that. Right now though, my donation shelf is looking
fabulous!

In my
linen closet I have enough toiletries, laundry supplies, paper products and
cleaning supplies to last for two years.
Again, that would mean no donations or helping others so I still plan to purchase items on
sale for this as well. Soap, toothpaste and
toothbrushes have been my main donation items this year. I hope to continue to do that for as long as
I can.
