here... no there.... no back over there... aahhhhh!!!

So, we're both pretty new to food storage and all that goes with it.  We've read a lot of books and watched a ton of YouTube videos in our attempt to learn how to do this.  One thing I've seen more than once is temperature.  The temperature you store your food can affect the shelf life.  I currently have the majority of our food storage in a closet upstairs in the house.  I have no air conditioning in the house.  I'm thinking this is not the most ideal location for my food.  So today and yesterday I'm spending making room in another room: the garage.  The temperature doesn't go to extremes out here.  But my garage is a wreck of boxes and old mess.  So, I'm cleaning, throwing things away and organizing.  Hopefully by the end of the week I'll have moved my food storage to it's new home in the garage.  Fingers crossed I don't throw out my back in the process!!
