My entry to @goldendawne's Show Me Yours & I'll Show You Mine: PANTRY Contest!

I have something that feels a little like a secret...but I'll invite you in because it's a sweet story. It is our pantry.

When we first moved out to the middle of nowhere in the midst of the deep forest, we struggled for normalcy. We cooked over a fire and slept in our Suburban...and we had no safe place to keep our food.

One afternoon, while strategically buying supplies, the Yeti surprised me by purchasing a large tote so that our groceries would be safer. We kept it in our two person tent on the property, and everytime we opened it, it smelled like a sweet bakery!

Once we moved into our home, it came inside with us. It not only holds some dried goods, but random kitchen tools...grater...pot lids...cooling racks.

Sometimes it's oraganized, and sometimes it crushes all the bread! But it will always be lovingly called, "The Pantry"!


This my entry into @goldendawne's Panty contest! I thought about posting a picture in the comments, but I felt it was worth a post!

First pantry I've seen with a lid. I like!

Haha thank you! Ya never know, it could turn into a fad! 😂

I love it!
When you hinted earlier about it I thought and thought about where you might have a pantry...under the bed was the best I could come up with in that tiny house of yours.

Haha, we've considered it for canned goods! But right now it is our "closet" lol

A pantry with a lid comes in handy on the homestead especially if you periodically get invaded by small creatures such as ants and little deer mice!

Yes! I like to keep God's little creatures as far away from our food supply as possible! Haha
