LOL. Popcorn should always be at the top of every grocery list.
Actually, I make it a point that every time I go to the store I will buy at least one item for the long term pantry such as:
Salt
Pepper
Baking Soda
Beans
Rice
Honey
Sugar
For canned goods, I buy one for current use and one for the pantry. Etc. And when a sale hits-I load up. Just bought a year’s supply of coffee last week when it was on sale. Keeps my shelves stashed without a lot of effort.
I’ll have to start doing that.
I haven’t been doing this long other than loading up a deep freeze and making sure I have whatever I need to make anything we want for dinner.
I only started canning a couple years ago because I was too chicken to use a pressure canner and I was really afraid I might do it wrong and make us all sick. I sure wish I would have started sooner! I don’t have that much put up but it’s a lot for me. Being limited on space I have it on display in the room divider and a bookcase.
