I am getting things ready to can beef stew tomorrow as well as some chicken breast I picked up on sale today. The green beans I canned are still sitting on bed in spare bedroom as I haven’t had time to get them under the bed. We really don’t have anyone spending night any longer other than youngest grandson and he is almost 18 and looking for a job as well as college. So don’t think he will be popping in to spend weekends near as much as he used to. So I am thinking about redoing that room as it is the smallest bedroom and having either son in law or someone to hire to put up shelving down one wall for canned goods. I am not sold on doing that but with no pantry and 3 closets full of food along with 2 book cases. I need more storage. My only other option would be to redo the shed that now houses all the Christmas things on loft and canning jars and larger pots I use for canning. That the idea of having electric run for a window air conditioner might be my better option. Just not sure where to go with this one. Looking at all my options at this point. I have no basement and no pantry. Kitchen has no storage for that much canning. Very small kitchen. If anyone has any ideas, I am open for suggestions. My second bedroom is my office, sewing room, craft room and the closet is also full of food. Just hope having this much food in house will pay off as about 10 years ago I never would have thought to store this much food. Canning adds up fast.
