What have done towards your prep?

[Pete Grey]

First of all a belated seasons greetings to everyone and best wishes for the new year to you all, and let’s hope 2022 is a better year than the last two have been.

For those who have lost friends or loved ones over the pandemic it must have been really hard.

Over the holidays we have been trying to keep in touch with friends and family, something we sometimes forget to do when we’re busy.

We too have been checking the dates and condition of our food preps, as SS says it can be a daunting task if you try and do it all in one go, but it is essential to keep food safe.

This is one reason we keep our preps in crates when we can, the crates are numbered, have a short description of the contents on the lid, and a list of contents inside.

They can easily be checked one at a time, I try to keep the crates to a manageable weight, 30lbs, for moving them about.

This is the time of the year when we look back and see if we could have done better, and the time to decide how we wish to progress with our preps.

As we grow older (late 70s) our needs and our capabilities alter, and so must our plans.
