I think that for Newly Weds that giving the gift of food storage is a great idea. You know they will always have several toasters and mixers as gifts. But giving them food storage stuff is really a life saving gift if things go bad. The new toaster wont help them then.

Good idea. It would be easy to give a water storage container. Someone gave a food storage "starter" kit to my brother and his wife early in their marriage. It is available here: http://store.lds.org/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Category3_10705_10551_21158_-1_N_image_0

I'm doing a blog on single parents & preparedness. Everyone needs to prepare! It gives special insight for single parents, but also shows that if a single mom can get prepared, anyone can!

Hi, do you also have any food storage tips and ideas for singles who live on their own?

I can often find tips for single parents & couples but hardly any for singles on their own.

Thank you from the UK:)

Julie,

Typically storage space is the biggest issue when storing for singles. If you don't have space, then you'll have to get creative. Here is a link to ideas for fitting storage in any housing situation: http://iprepared.blogspot.com/2009/01/ive-run-out-of-room.html Obviously, you'll adjust amounts needed to be for just one person which will use even less space.

I'm actually very blessed to have quite a lot of room for food storage.

When we had the kitchen re-done a few years ago my Dad built a cupboard for my own food, which I now use for my food storage.

Julie - Glad you have space! Now you can fill it up. :o)
