My Foray Into Food Storage

A regular gal learning about Food Storage, Home Cooking, Canning, Gardening, and more!

About

Laurie

I am a happily married, stay at home mom with four sons, ages 27, 25, 21, and 17. I’m not a professional blogger, and I’m certainly not a foodie, chef, etc. But I like food, so I think I’m qualified to write about my own life experience with food.  I hope you’ll join me in my foray into food storage.

Have a question about Food Storage? Or do you represent a company interested in having me review your product or sponsor a giveaway?  Email me: forayintofoodstorage@gmail.com.

I know we just “met,” out here in the blogosphere, but I really am enjoying your posts and wanted you to know that because I find your blog simply wonderful, I have put you up for one or two awards (you can accept one, both, or neither, LOL); The Sunshine Award and the Sisterhood of the World Bloggers Award. All the information you need is over at http://musingsfromaworkaholic.com/2014/04/20/sunshine-sisterhood-sunday/ I absolutely get it if you have so much going on that you don’t post, but wanted you to know that I really enjoy your posts, and wanted to share them with my readers, as well.

  46. Thank you for following my blog. 🙂 Yours looks quite interesting! My Grandmother was a farmer that grew and canned lots of food, and stored it in her cellar. My favorite was her yellow string beans, and I really miss the beans, and her. I remember getting to play with the leftover wax when she was finished canning a big batch of food! Good luck on your blog. 🙂
