First dinner here


So my pantry is stuffed, my little fridge and freezer are crammed and I cooked the first meal here in Fy Nyth. I got a photo while I was cooking but forgot to take one after we started eating. Seth came over and we had the first fish tacos I'd ever made.

 Meal plans are still revolving around using up the food I had stored when I found out we were going to have to move out of the last place I rented. There I had a large garage as my pantry so I bought everything in bulk and normally stored about 6 months worth of food. (That was a guess, but since we've been eating out of that storage with just the addition of fresh fruits, veggies, eggs, etc for 4 months now, and I still have a very full pantry here, I think the guess was pretty close.) There were huge shelves, two refrigerators, and a chest freezer. So, I'll try to finish cooking all of that stuff up and then will have to restrain myself and not buy whole cases of things at a time.

Oh yeah, and the batteries are hooked up so now there is power around the clock without having to run my generator! More about that tomorrow...
