FOOD STORAGE GALLORE

Has anyone else been feeling like food storage is the topic on the street? Maybe its because enrichment this month was about food storage and getting your 600 lbs of wheat. or it could be the super cool case lot sale that Macey's is having. At this point it seems like wheat is pointless to me because i don't even have a wheat grinder and i don't know how to make homemade bread. HMMM??? why get it? So, instead of wasting my money on wheat i went to the case lot sale (which really is a good bargain, even compared to Costco). I got a lot of essentials like mayonnaise, brownies, cakes, ketchup...the goods. Okay, i really got other stuff too like canned tomatoes, chili, noodles, sugar, flour, etc. My mom and i went and we filled up 4, yes 4 shopping carts of food! we looked so ridiculous, but we didn't really care. (we didn't have all the carts at once, we made 2 trips back to back). My moms jimmy was packed to the brim!!! i really don't know how we got it all in there. anyways, now we have some food storage and won't go starving for a while! i know i don't have anywhere near the 1 year supply we are asked to get, but come on, my externship isn't exactly paying me right now, so we really can't afford to get too much right now. I just have a nice mom who is willing to split the food and cost with me!
