One of the things my husband has been reminding me of is that our habits for up north will need to be very different from our townhome. One of those habits has to do with those tiny little creatures called field mice … who love easily accessible people food … and who can fit in the tiniest of spaces.
Now don’t get me wrong. I am no stranger to field mice. But we are here every day, and the guest in the garden is here (Sandy the dog ☺) so we don’t have to take much precaution with dry goods food storage. I buy in bulk bags from Costco, and we leave things like brown rice and chia seeds in the heavy duty ziptop bags they come in. But that will be different up north. Given free reign, field mice laugh at plastic bags. So while we wait out the end of winter before we can get in to start prepping the cabin site, I have been making lists.
One of the things on the list was airtight food storage containers. ✔ that as done. I found a 10 pc set of lock tight containers on sale. They looked so snazzy I bought a set for up north and a set for the townhouse. Pretty much loving them 😍
