You betcha. My stepmother would bish about all the canned goods my grandmother had in her pantry. But grandma grew up during the 'great' depression and never wasted a thing. So glad I got to spend time with her and her sisters, Tut, and Lula. I learned a lot from them without even realizing it. Now I have a little farm (1.66 acres) of my own, and am reclaiming the land for my bird and maybe a goat or two. I get extra canned food whenever I can, plus dried beans, rice.. you name it. And I've remembered how to can just from watching my mom when I was growing up. Gardening is also a must.

So have mine Ron, even my parents are gone. Dad passed last year just before his 94th BD. But the time we spent with them is priceless. There are many a times I'm out mowing when I wished I had granddad's old Gravely mower with the riding seat he made for it.
