What is your favorite – “why didn’t I think of this sooner” for food preservation: Mine is something I started as an experiment in my 20’s for “lunch box food”
Everyone knows about freezing everything from herbs to eggs to bits of left over meats in an ice cube tray for later use. And most have likely heard about using muffin trays then transferring to a zipper bag or air tight container.
And that does work EXCEPT sometimes the cubes still stick together.
I find the inexpensive cupcake/muffin papers in both sizes – filled no more than 3/4 but mostly 2/3 – when the food is frozen, just fold over the edges before placing in the bag – no more chunks/cubes stuck together
If I ruled the universe and clearly I Do NOT ! Instead of “No Sugar Added” a comprehensive line of “No Sweetener Added” would exist.

ALDI – TIPS – having shopped there for quite awhile before becoming mostly delivery dependent,
these tips are worth considering.

It is not just winter weather that effects availability of delivery services those who rely on such services should plan ahead – including maybe a small camp or buffet gas stove to heat foods like soups, etc.
“Weather analysts at Colorado State University’s Department of Atmospheric Science in Fort Collins estimate that the 2022 Atlantic hurricane season will be an active one that produces 19 named storms, nine hurricanes and four major hurricanes (reaching wind speeds of 111 mph and up). “If the model goes as predicted, this would be our seventh above-normal hurricane season in a row,” said research scientist Dr. Phil Klotzbach at CSU.” Source: Eldersburg Patch
