Stocking Up Haul

[@ritahunter3177]

I just sold my late husband's motorcycle trailer so I'm headed to Aldi for can goods tomorrow. Put aside $200 just for stock up. Then back to the upick farm for more corn, tomatoes and green beans to can. My group helped harvest the potatoes in the garden and we had a windfall harvest of red and white. Garlic drying along with the onions. Planting more beans, peas and beets next. Love having all this for our prep group.

Yep. I would just wash them out and dry them really really well. Personally I'd probably still put the contents in either mylar or a foodsaver bag, but I don't think it's strictly necessary. Just make sure you keep the popcorn tins somewhere dry and inspect every few months to make sure they aren't showing signs of rust on the outside.

@jjohnston1946 It is a lid that has a plastic ring that you hammer onto your bucket, and then the lid screws into that ring. It is so much easier to get in and out of the bucket. It also makes an airtight seal.

@@susantelchik5986 I have a few gamma Lids and they are not airtight. I know this because I put flour in a bucket with a gamma Lid. I had to move the bucket. It was closed and still leaked flour. Apparently, there is supposed to be gasket rings inside the lids but some stores sell the lids that do not have the gasket rings. So not all bucket lids are airtight. Some leak. Gamma Lids are 2 pieces so that you can easily use the item stored. Some of the Other lids have a locking system with a pull tab for more long term storage. Some of the lids are cheap and easily pop on and off. It is like comparing apples to oranges. Tractor Supply has the cheap easy on and easy off lids. Home Depot has the locking tab lids. Tractor Supply on occasion has Gamma Lids in stock. Check the lid for gaskets inside the lip before you buy them.

I had fallen in December 2021 and had medical complications so I took 2022 off and only ordered online. Now, I have more work on tackling the freezers this summer.

I need to use some of it up before September so I have to come up with meals using those 3 meats for anout the next 6 weeks. I only have 2 chicken wing packs, 2 whole chickens and some steak to mix it up a little. I decided to leave the assorted roasts and hams for winter. Y'all can freeze tortillas but you need to remove them from the package as they defrost or they get soggy. I am using those up right now because I got plenty for free so I froze them.

I just about fell over when you said you were in Tawas today…I live in Tawas! I had no idea you were from Michigan! Next time you come to Tawas let me know. I’d love to meet you in person. I began watching your channel during Canuary. I learned a lot and and have you to thank for dinner yesterday. Canning pork butt was new to me but I sure love the convenience!

Those exact buckets are always located in our "Ole timey" Walmart's paint dept.

FYI: Baking soda will change and loose its potency over time if not stored correctly. There are ways to check it's still good if using for baking. Would possibly not matter much if used for cleaning.

I’ve been getting empty frosting buckets from my local Food Lion grocery store. They give them away. All of the round buckets have rubber seals on the lids. Some are 5 gallon, some smaller. Nice to have various sizes. Have to clean them but hey, they’re free!

I just brought food grade safe buckets at home depot. They also carry the lids, those wonderful special lids, separately. Of course not the great deal you got at Walmart but I am glade I was able get get 3 so I can keep some of our baking supplies away from mice.

Baking soda is also good for healing yeast infection. Take a sitz bath with baking soda and tea tree oil. Cured after one bath.
