I just stock my favorites. I figure if there is a tornado, earthquake or bad ice storm I'm going to want favorites. It's the little things that make me happiest. Grilled cheese and tomato soup, biscuits and gravy, quesadilla jalisco, banana bread, blueberry bread, apple or cinnamon danish, etc. I have all the ingredients in stock. Lol.
Good choice! I couldn’t agree more. Like simply have hot chocolate or a favorite treat that eases the mind! You are on the right track in my opinion fir sure!
@@modernhomesteadalaska yeah. I'm stocked on tea, coffee, hot chocolate and drink mixes. Lol
Hi Jessica! You are so much more organized than I could ever be! I do my pantry like you do...cans together, etc. My pantry is not all that big, but I don't live in Alaska...lol! All my things are done in dozens...like 10 or 12 of each. I love that you and your Mom go shopping together. I lost my Mom in 2008, and I miss her every day. Give your Mom a big hug from me, just because!!!! You are so fierce and focused!! Big hugs and many blessings, sweet one!
You are so amazing! I hope to have her shopping for many years to come. I’m so sorry for your loss. I’ll give an extra mom hug for you!
once a month we give to a local churchs food pantry. we have been very blessed so we like to give to them so they can bless others. We send them food for three meals a day for at least a week. i try and get as many fresh items as i can and always add some treats so the children (and the parents too) can have something special.
That's a great idea! I love that. I got some soups that are like princess or kids shapes. Nothing like a sick child that needs to eat. Simone said to make birthday boxes for parents. Like a pan a cake mix birthday candles. I love all the ideas you all come up with. Nothing like thinking of helping a parent brighten a child’s day with a treat. Thank you so much for what you do.
Another way to build a pantry and what's worked best for me is to write things on the shopping list as they're used. Ex: made tuna noodle so I put Mac and cheese, tuna, and can of peas on the list. To build the pantry I'll get 2 or 3 or 4 instead of just 1 to replace it. I know we'll eat it because we already have! A couple things are required for this though 1. Cook (pretty much) from scratch 2. Cook with shelf stable items as much as possible. Just a different spin on things that I don't find talked about
You couldn’t be more right! I do the same! I love the way you think!
Great idea. We spent few weeks everyday. giving to our grand boys school daily giving box. We had pasta & bread fir supper so We donated pasta , sauce, bread kits. We had soup so we donated soup and crackers, we had rice and beans so we donated rice and beans kits. Made us think meals are important. So we do 4 basic meals a week then 2 more complicated lol . So we remember those basics to donate and buy and how many we need to do those meals and donations. Such a good way to remember your meal supplies.
My husband's been out of work for 9weeks, and I'm unable to work, so having a well stocked canned pantry has been a life savor for our family of 4. Its desperately in need of a restock, but our budget is barley able to keep fresh milk for the kids in the home. And living in California means prices are ridiculously high. Keeping a reserve of even a few months of foods you eat is so important, and not just for major disaster situations, anything can happen to anyone. Thank you for sharing your stock! And a very big thanks to sharing the love and donating to your local food drives. Every can counts!
You are a rock star! A woman who prepared for the worst and is able to see her hard work being put to use. I’m so proud of you! I’m also so sorry you are struggling I’m keeping you in my thoughts!
@@modernhomesteadalaska thank you!
I received my first bulk beans and rice today. I’m just starting but I’ve been watching many people and taking advice that pertains to me. I’m excited to get the bags into the freezer and package them for long term storage. Thank you so much for being detailed in your advice.
Keep it up I love hearing that. We all do it a little different! I just want others todo something even something small! Good work!
Sue...just a friendly hint. Before you buy any more rice and beans, round out your long-term storage with pasta, flour, yeast, cornmeal, salt, sugar, instant potatoes, oats, and fats like olive oil, avocado oil, and coconut oil...and butter if you can store it in your freezer...I'm just thinking aloud. You know what your family will eat and what you already have on hand The goal is, though, is to go beyond rice and beans...and to have seasoning/salt to cook your foods with.
Also...curious...what varieties of beans (and rice) did you buy? You don't want to only have 50 lbs of pinto beans, for example, and do diversify with several varieties, and the same with rice. You want to have a way to "doctor" up your beans so they don't taste the same way every time you eat them. That will get boring REALLY quick!!!
My husband does the pantry 😂 I just cook sitting on a chair I am disabled and bake and can with his help. 🥰
Hey that’s great whatever works. I’m so happy you still find a way to get in! Many blessings to you!
Excellent video. Have a wonderful Thursday.
Thanks, you too!
I’m building my pantry for 2 trying to have food for at list 3 to 6 months 😊 glad to hear your feeling better 🙏🏻
Good luck!! You can do it!
Thank you so much for braking things down. Stocking up when your not used to the thought process is a challenge. I’m grateful for your encouragement and inspiration 😇
You are so welcome! I’m so happy it helps anyone!
Really appreciate your videos and sharing your systems for food storage
Sending love from Ontario 🇨🇦
Awesome hauls
Thank you
Hi Jessica I hope you feel better 😊 I too only stock what we love and I love Spam !!😊😝
Lol you would fit right on here! Thanks fir watching.
I organize very much like you do. Makes sense to me.
See great minds!
Your thought process is "Spot on"! ! ! Again, I really enjoy seeing your basement stock of foods. What a pantry! I do not really have a pantry anymore, as I am in a rental. So, I have shelf units that my son built me.....one of those is in the sliding door closet, as you come into the house.......then another is in my room, and that one holds my personal tools, empty canning jars, lanterns for emergency use...things of that sort. Then, I have a double door unit, that holds some canned goods. Actually 2 of them, but a smaller one is in the kitchen area., and it is my go-to pantry. Sounds confusing, I know, but, its actually quite organized. I miss the basement, that I had when all my children were younger. I had the freezers down there, and many shelf units. I did can back then, as I had quite a large garden. It is very rewarding to open a jar of pickles, or string beans, knowing that you canned them yourself. I used to go upstate Maine, and buy 100 lbs of potatoes. That was good, for my family of 11. Now, there is just me, and one of my daughters that lives with me. She is 54 and has fibromyalgia quite badly. It seems like we take turns not feeling well. Anyhow......when my children were little, I would bake 6 loaves of bread at a time....that recipe was wonderful! Thanks so much for taking us down in your basement supplies. I really enjoy it so very, very much. PS I have some SPAM in my absolute EMERGENCY pile of thing.....I am not really a fan, but with eggs, I can tolerate it! Have a great week, Bev in Maine
I love hearing from you Bev. You have had such an amazing life and I love the stories. We are at different points but clearly a same mind set! Thank you for always showing such support!
My daughter loves those little mini jams and things as well as a Christmas memory. I got her the 24 days of bonna mamas jams one year and she loved it! The jars are so cute.
That is awesome! It’s such a sweet memory. And honestly not an expensive joy. I miss my G-Dad so much at Christmas.
@@modernhomesteadalaska 💕
Please do a video scanning your entire pantry….I see all the black tubs with yellow tops. I wish I had led a different life when I was younger. Living vicariously through you.
I’ll try to remember when I do a new pantry video
We have a low of 33° here in Northern California tonight and I love it.
I love it too! But trying to be grateful! The kids are not happy they want to be riding sleds. And the snow is almost gone.
Soon enough!
Loved watching the vlog.
Glad you enjoyed it thank you for watching
Another great job! Mine pantry isn't near as organized as yours but I am so thankful that I have one. God's blessings......🥰🥰🥰
You just gave me great ideas of things I did not think of. Thanks. I think my OCD kicks in when I organize my pantry, it’s all in alphabetical order, yes I know crazy.
Hey what ever works for you is how it should be done! Way to go!
I think very similarly to the way you organized your pantry, it makes sense to me. It's always interesting to see what's happening in different areas and how much things cost or what is in short supply. You were sure right about the temperature in Dallas being cold. I had to pick the last of my tomatoes before our first freeze a couple of days ago. So there's that, tomatoes in November, crazy. I appreciate your explanation about the whys, etc of the reason you do things. You throw out a lot of tips and tricks along the way that are helpful. Thanks for sharing
Thank you so much! You are so kind to me!
Your stock is starting to really look full which is wonderful for your family. Thank You for sharing.
So nice of you to drop in. It’s a slow process but someday I’ll be satisfied then someone will eat something. Oh man it’s never ending. Thanks for watching.
In Arizona, we have Fry's but haven't experienced any shortage of tomatoes. In fact, I have so many I've donated a bunch. The shelves are full at our local Fry's. Only a very few items I can't find. An example is Best Food's Mayo. I like buying the small jars because there are just the 2 of us and we don't use mayo very often. I ended up having to settle for a large jar. But better to have some than none. Love your Costco hauls!!
That is awesome! I love that thought. It’s crazy here with tomatoes! And they are such a staple in my house. And honestly I don’t want to have to pay an arm and leg.
I have had something in my thoughts to buy, but for the past few days it has alluded me! Bingo.. you have it!! The can rollers/rotators. I could hug you!!
The day is getting long here, have taken my fall things down and packed for storage. I have the opportunity to have a friend come and put up our tree in the morning. Will be out of town for Thanksgiving and we can live incognito til Black Friday!!
Wow, your yard looks great! You can tell that a lot of work happened there!
Until we visit, hugs to all and blessings.
❤ Momma G
Ohhhh I hope you have the best thanksgiving. Thank you Aaron continues to amazing me! How I don’t know but he does!
@@modernhomesteadalaska
Team work is dream work!!
We both found the best! ❤️
Hope your feeling better. I enjoyed your vlog.
Thank you 😊 that’s so kind!
We lived in Alaska 9 years ago. We got our Christmas tree from Fred meyers and it’s still the one we use yearly ❤
Oh nice! We need one this year. Maybe I’ll Check Fred Meyer!
You are so organized! That’s great! I was really able to follow you really well. I’m so glad you are feeling better, but don’t get to frisky!! Lol! I really love your videos! Ty for taking the time and patience to share them!
Thank you so much!! That’s very kind!
Jessica, I want to thank you for your wonderful spirit of sharing with your community, you have a beautiful heart.
Thank you so much! Oh wow you made me blush! Thank you!
Loving the videos you put out. Take care of yourself. Jan. UK. X
Thank you Jan!
For organizing my pantry, I think meals to determine what I am going to store but I organize by category
That’s a perfect way of doing it I think.
My brain apparently works a lot like yours. My cold room is down there’s in a 8x8 room. It holds at fridge temperatures most of the winter. So I keep cans, rice, beans and pastas and my home canning, then fresh fruits and veg down there. So similar to yours. Great video Jessica 🇨🇦💕
Very cool! I love that! Great minds think alike.
Thanks for another great video and so glad to see you're feeling better
I am! Thank you so much!
Wow Arron did a great job 👏 🎉
Thank you 🤗 I love it!
Fred Meyer is an affiliate of Kroger to us in the lower 48. I love your channel. Thank you for sharing your content and life with us. Praying for you , hope you feel well soon.
Thanks for sharing!! Lol I keep forgetting that. It’s so funny if they would just call it all by one name! Lol! Thank you for watching
You are such a great teacher
Wow Sarah! Seriously such a huge compliment!
I am in need of reorganizing my pantry. I will have to think if I want to try a different method of organization. Thank you for your overview of your pantry organization. Here in east central Oklahoma, we are having our first snow of the season today!!! It's 34 degrees, but the snow is not sticking very much yet. Have a great week, and many blessings!!
I’m laughing because I’m warmer in Alaska. How does that even happen. Goes to show these thoughts and practices can for sure be shared! Stay warm my friend.
@@modernhomesteadalaska Yes! I can't believe your lake thawed out!
Thank you. Great examples and suggestions.
Glad it was helpful! Thank you fir watching!
With the cold weather moving in we are better about putting complete meal items in our pantry. We look in the freezer to see what is oldest & pick up the side foods. I always watch your videos when my daughter is watching TV with me hoping to motive her into weekly meal planning & stocking. We are so different- and that’s okay-- she’s a procrastinator & I think everything should be done last week. I’ve had to change since I’m dependent on her to do everything! 😄. Once she lets me know what is oldest in the freeze, she likes help with getting the list made for sides! Aw Such is Life! Thank you for all of your tips on setting up a long term pantry! Blessings! 💜
You are still doing amazing you have a plan even if it’s not conventional. I’m so happy you always join me! Thank you for that.
Fred Meyer is a Kroger family store. :) I’m so happy your feeling better. Thank you for sharing how to build a pantry from the ground up. Absolutely love every signal video you post.
I break my pantry up like you.
That’s so amazing! It’s crazy busy! Thank you for being so kind and watching!
you can freeze crm chs n sour cream u can store it upside down before its open n you'll get longer time iknow sounds weird we did it in our resturant we were told by the vender n my grandma used to store it upside down til opened
Takes out air, is my guess.
Oh wow I have never heard of this! I’m trying it thank you for the tip!
Stale water fix to “freshen it up.” When it comes out of the faucet, it usually has some air in it. It’s sounds too easy, but if you just take two glasses. Put water in one glass and pour it back and forth between the two glasses, you put some of that air back in it. It makes a difference. It seems silly, too easy and like it wouldn’t make that big of a difference, but it does. 😊
I had heard this and forgot it. You are right! Even one of those balls for powder could add air into the water! Great idea
Got to love the condiments ❤️❤️❤️ Have been slowly building a stock pantry and I totally agree with your ethos on food security 👍👍👍 Tins I find are the best for donating and pasta. Jessica always enjoy your videos 👏👏👏👏👏👏 Blessings to and wishing you good health Love from the UK x
Thank you! That’s amazing! We see eye to eye for sure!
Great haul. I love your cosco hauls. Ty for sharing. I love to shop in categories it helps to not over stock.
Me too!! Or at least that’s how my brain works!
Girl, right now I have 5 different mustards in my fridge right now 😂
Same I'm a condiment person got more condiments then anything else. Wish we could share pics in the comments lol no shame in having too many. I like sauces and such lol
Ahhh lol!!! Mine too
I’m rolling! My fridge is just mostly condiments! But it’s flavor right it’s fine! Lol
We had to buy another fridge to put the condiments, water, juices, kids snacks and drinks, alcohol, beer and soda, teas. we had no room for reg stuff. I hear ya we are super fresh with cold drinks and lots of sauces.
I would love to see your upstairs pantry.😊
I’m working on a video for this.
I did good last week and spent 60 on groceries but some of that was to replenish the pantry with canned veggies going on sale. We’ve got a new refrigerator coming Wednesday if the storm holds off so the November challenge has been a great motivator to work with what we have.
That is awesome! I’m so happy for you! In the actual month of November we are right around $25 in the first 14 days! You are doing amazing!
I love to watch your Costco Grocery Haul videos. We don’t have a Costco in Ketchikan😢
Oh no that’s no fun.
Great price on butter. I need to go shopping at Costco soon. It's been awhile.
It’s so great fir the most basic stock up items for sure!
WOWIE Aaron sure is putting his new toy to use! the transformation of the driveway and all around the house looks amazing!!! YAY Aaron! when you mentioned not finding split pea soup lately it made me wonder if you've ever tried the Ball/Bernardin recipe?? it's delish and I happen to have it on pretty good authority that you have a pretty good stash of split peas 🤣 ... the glass of course isn't great to take camping etc but you can just empty the jar into something else to go! just a thought but we sure love that homemade home canned version! ❤
oh yeah... and my "pantry" occupies the best closets in the house - and a few other nooks and crannies! ha
You are so sweet. He did do such a good job. I do need to just can it myself. I like the Pre-canned fir simple reason. You are right I just decided I’ll do it myself!
That’s a great way anything works.
Same thing here with the condiments and sauces. Only the kids like them. I prefer to do make my sauces and dips myself and they taste so much better😀
Exactly!! I love homemade ranch and other sauces. But Aaron likes the good old store stuff.
I think Fred Meyer is Kroger owned . Glad you are feeling better 🎉 be back someone at my door ?
Love it! Thank you!
What a great video... your pantry has come such a long way! I just picked up my first pressure canner and am excited to start putting up more. I also have more than a few varieties of mustard..lol. keep the videos coming!! Take good care Jess... was nice to see your mom too! Blessings to you all 😀
Thank you that’s so kind
You have a beautiful pantry
Thank you that’s so kind!
Love your pantry tours!!! Can I ask where you got your soup can organization/storage?
Thank you I got them different places I just tell others to look at can rollers on Amazon. And you can decide based on the space. The have singles and doubles and so on. Thank you for watching
How are you feeling now? My family did a decent stock up at Aldi last week.
I feel great today. It will take a min for the videos to catch up. Better every day for sure thank you so much for asking
We grew up as ketchup dipping kids, so now I dip in many different condiments, and at 61, I doubt that I will change. I have over 12 bottles of assorted condiments/sauces in the refrigerator, and that doesn't include the items that I can as well.
Lol see it’s very common! For sure!
A lot of times I will buy the big bags of frozen veggies for cheaper and then can them into pints or quarts to save on freeze space. I'm in Atlantic Canada and a lot of prices are similar to yours in Alaska
That’s such a wonderful idea! Thank you for sharing.
I organize mine by type...so pasta & sauces together, baking together, Mexican ingredients together, Chinese ingredients together. It works better for me and is how I categorize my meal types. I have about 100 ingredients on hand and have lots of them. I just try to streamline it all. I don't make a recipe that has a one off ingredient to keep costs down.
See that is such a great thought. Thank you for sharing it shows we can all build a pantry and does not all need to look the same. Just do what works for you. I love this!!!
Grab those slices peaches! There are none in any Costco in my area (New York City and Westchester, NY). I'm sorry that I didn't pick up more the last time I saw them (mid summer). 😥😥😥
Wow that’s not good! Caleb loves them!
If the milk is so much cheaper at Costco, would you consider buying it there and freezing it? I freeze milk all the time and it tastes just as good as the day it was bought.
Perfect idea! I have or try to keep 6 gallons in the freezer. And you are 100% right it’s just the same we have frozen milk for years. And yes I should start just getting the month worth and freezing it. But also keeping the 6 extras for emergency. Sort of rotate through better! Great point. Has me thinking now.
I have vanilla extracting with those exact alcohols. I've tried the vodka extract and it's already good after just 3 months.
That’s amazing may I ask what bean you like to make your vanilla with?
@@modernhomesteadalaska aa of now, I've only tried 2 variations of Madagascar beans. I'm hoping to expand my selection and experiment over the next year. I found a vanilla bean co-op that is neat to order and learn from.
@@lynne_c perfect that works my mom sent me some. I’m new to it so I’m learning!
I organize my pantry by like items, but I think that is because I scratch cook all meals, and I use a variety of different things in each dish. Most of my vegetables we raise, and a little of our fruit. Otherwise I buy fresh, locally if possible and can them myself.
That’s a perfect way todo it! I love your style!
I find it quite difficult to built my pantry but i'm working on it, as prices go up like crazy here in france. I try to use the things i bought and that we don't really like in the challenge and beginning of december i promised to my self to re-organise the whole place ( 2.50 meters x 1.50 meters ). Thanks for all your help. Hugs from france
Sounds great! You have a plan! You are working through it! And I love hearing that! Hugs from Alaska!
I stock by ingredients, not by meal. Perish the thought of not having flexibility!!! I stock for a year-plus for myself (it's just me). I have probably three years worth of pasta (and just bought 20 pounds again last week)...but I kept getting good deals on it. I can't pass up a good deal! I'll be sharing with my daughter, other family, and with the needy.
I like that. I stock items not meals. Well some exceptions, like a few Asian meals or some we make 1 or 2 times a year that require a few specific things. I’m with you on buying pasta. I do however need way more!
Hi Jessica. Did I hear correctly that you make your own bagels? That would be great to see, when you’re up to it, of course. Hugs.
I do I’ll have to share that soon!
@@modernhomesteadalaska Yay!!!
If you pour water back and fourth to get air init.
Yeah someone reminded me that! Great point thank you!
Watching this 12/2022 from Michigan. We did 2 shopping trips to Meijer this week, Meijer had canned goods 39 cents a can. We stocked up enough for a year. I am a canner, but I can't can at that price these days.
Oh so nice thank you fir watching I’m going to Costco tomorrow! Kodie and I will do a full shopping day!
@@modernhomesteadalaska have fun, Merry Christmas!
You can tell you are from CO since you compare Fred Meyers to King Soopers. Kroger is the national chain. Coming from a PNW girl who lives in CO. 🙂
Lol you are soooo right on that! You made me start laughing!
2 or more shelves are filled with condiments/ferments/dips/home canned jars. It is crazy. Always a struggle for me trying to keep them cleaned
Oh man I get it. I’m loving that it’s in a separate location to where my family pulls things from. It helps fir sure with the cleaning.
Yep that's what my family always does. Lived in Minnesota for years no walmart yet in those days. You bulk up for those crock pots, family Giving, church donate, meat fir meat raffle giveaways, and all that baking & jamming. We us the big tote method 5 totes for all those tomato cans so many kinds lately. 1 corn, 1 fruits 1, chili type beans 3 totes, 2 more just miscellaneous cans. About 8 totes things like cereal, oatmeal, scallop & dry potatoes, noodles, pasta, rice, beans, all that baking stuff. We would be like better to fill in August then tiny loads on snowmobiles in nov.. ya never know when you need to bug out for fires, storms, floods those totes are handy. Ans easy to donate we buy dated items year round but winter is our crock pot and baking time. We fill those totes. Keep it clean and tidy
I truly like this idea. That’s a good way of keeping it organized and knowing how much you need. We do so much soup and beans this time of year too.
@@modernhomesteadalaska yep feed the neighbors mentality it's rough in frozen states. Keep them bins full 2 months before everyone peak panic buys - when the snow gets nippy those prices go up & demand & low inventory. Basic economics. We purge the bins on canned tomatoes & veg & beans in June - to donations. And fill them June July August September bit of Oct. Then watch the hoarders buy high...lol.. we know everything we buy has a place. Either eating, giving, or donation to churches, city blessing boxes, schools. We see you Buy that extra. Bless you its so important to those needing it. I feel it's the best thing we do. Im a donation cans hoarder in off peak times to give when it's so important. Those totes have saved us thru disasters I can pull up with my bbq and full tote of veg. We get to cooking or giving. Ive been known to do both. Spring ice storm Elect outage well that's just a bbq for the city my freezer food is getting put onto my smokers and I'm feeding linemen and neighbors. We pull out totes to donate hot sides. You never know who God sends you.
@@MidevilExcalibur most amazing testimony. Give as we have been given so much.
Only 36 degrees in Ohio l do my pantry like yours 🌟🛒🌟
Oh nice I’m a bit warmer.
I personally might be responsible for like 50% of that skimpy tomato aisle at Fred Meyer 😬
Ahhh well that’s ok then!
Jessica, I love spam 😋 And I do not like any condements either, and I detest ketchup, you will never find ketchup in my fridge.
Exactly!! Lol you made me smile. They just love that spam! But I can’t do it with all the condiments myself! But I love to see them smile! Do I buy all those little things.
Curious where you got your can rollers? (Please say Amazon 🤞) they look like the ones that load from the top front and roll down and around to the front?
Amazon! They gave different sizes and nights based on the area you have! And you are correct!
Often times we don't realize the amt of people shopping at your town 60k can mean divided by 5 store sources. Canned tomatoes are often bought in bulk August - Feb peak buying times And shop both times a day as online and even restaurants are buying in the same stores. Often Costco only has 4 types or less. Those like kroger etc have 6 types with one shelving 150 cans a week. You are competing with 60k households. Buy these things every trip, as the sales are 10 for 10 or 10 for $ 20. One person buys 24 or 48 of each. It's not a shortage according to your stores it's a buying peak time and alaska it's snow falls you panic and buy Staples for weeks
I like the perspective. It makes me feel guilty to buy all of something when I’m only wanting 10-12 of the item. It’s frustrating when you need it but the mind set is to feel bad if you buy all you need. It’s for sure been a mind set shift. Like when I go get milk I should buy just 5 or so cans and stick the item slow but consistently. You gave me something to ponder and an idea to adjust fir sure.
Hi Jessica I was Watching another RUclipsr-And Cardboard & things in Bags that Rodents can eat Through I know you know flour get bugs in it 11-15-2022👍🏽👍🏽♥️., I need those Can holder but I do not have much storage space & I do not really like cans I preferred to be frozen
Thanks for the tip! I did know that. It had happened to me before. It’s a good idea to freeze or store it so it dies not get them.
I really miss Ranch! I can't find it here in Sweden...😐
Oh my Aaron would not be happy! I hardly use it he puts it on everything. I’m so sorry to hear that!
Have you tried to make it homemade- recipe is super simple! I would be happy to give you the recipe if you would like!
Could you please mention where you purchased your roller can holders? Thank you!!
They just have them on Amazon. I look up can rollers and they have so many choices based on the size space you have to put them in.
@@modernhomesteadalaska thank you!!
Jennifer I love Tang but I can’t pee when I drink it same thing with Pepsi , I guess I’m strange 😢 we like pickled beets and bean salad. Thank you for sharing ❤🎉❤
Oh that’s so strange! My grandpa put it on pancakes growing up.
Oh my goodness 🤗
I guess I missed it but can you tell me what type of can holders you have and how many does each hold.
They have so many different ones on Amazon. I just always recommend you look and get one that will fit the space you have.
I had to order split pea soup here in Iowa because I couldn't find it in store either
It’s so crazy!! I need to just can it myself at this point,
@@modernhomesteadalaska yep I also do that but the campbell's is really good
Where did you find the can holders...I only found a crappy one at Wal-mart ..
Amazon or bed bath and beyond. They have different sizes fir what space you have.

Great idea
you never showed the costco total nor the fred meyers total.
It’s a damed if I do and damed if I don’t situation. I get hate when I share the total. It’s a hard balance to decide what to share and not share. So I try mostly to share what items cost as opposed to what I personally spend
@@modernhomesteadalaska i only asked for comparson to what same amount in detroit area..yes taxes are different and some of your prices are lower so wanted to know total in comparision
I think you are amazing
Thank you that’s beyond kind!

Flour in canister powder milk in glass jars I can jelly glass jars pasta sauce jars picante sauce glass jars store baking soda powder milk instant potato in these jars
I hate canned peas, so every time you mention canned peas I go yuck .So sorry
Lol we are not canned veggie fans! But we will eat them just a couple times a year. It’s so funny! It’s like a last ditch effort! I do use lots of frozen and fresh ones that we do truly prefer! Thanks for watching anyway! Lol
I don't like any kind of peas 🤢
No spend November?!?? I’m so confused on how you can post all these no spend November videos but then spend $1,000 at Costco in the middle of the month.
I’m sorry, I’m not trying to seem rude. I’m just confused as I was “invested” in watching how you spend $0 in November to feed your family.
This was recorded in October I got very sick and was put on antibiotics and had to go to the hospital twice. So I did this shopping at the very end of October. I then got sicker again. And have struggled to put the stuff away and work on my basement. So I simply struggled to get the video made and put out. I put pressure on myself to not put it out until I could put it away. And I should of done it earlier.
@Dale Drake great point. I set my no spend or no waist full spending month. Like personally we are refusing to buy anything that goes into the freezer for all of December either. Use what we have.
@@modernhomesteadalaska thank you for explain, not that you have to explain yourself. I hope you are putting your health first!! I love watching you and your family’s journey!!!! Be well!!
I never liked to store food. But since the pandemic, that has changed quite a lot. And thanks to you, Jessica, I am slowly but surely building up our pantry. And I like to sort it by categories, like everything in the house I have to store. That's the easiest for me to find the items. Thank you so much for this video and greetings from Switzerland
That's great! Anything we can learn puts us in a better place if we were to ever go through another situation like that. I’m so happy you are here!
