Collecting/Hoarding


A voice
crying out
in the wilderness (or the kitchen)

Too many boxes of tea -14
Too many tins of hot chocolate - 4
Too many cans of (inedible) salty tomato soup - 2
Too many tiny plastic bags full of obscure kinds of grains
-quantity unknown, age unknown, and lurking below

Collecting
Hoarding

And cute little maxims will solve all my problems
- if observed
Think before you buy.....
Buy what you need.......
And...

Easier said than done, but definitely worth trying

I can totally relate to all the bags of ancient dried beans and grains. I know what most of mine are, but some of them have been sitting around for over a year. Probably should just dump 'em, but... they're food! And I'd hate to waste food. Besides, didn't they discover honey from an ancient Egyptian tomb that was still edible, after adding a bit of water?
