DH has always been the one to do the shopping, (now online). He has always had a tendency to overbuy. We have kitchen cupboards, a pantry under the stairs, a shelving unit in the utility, part of an upstairs wardrobe full of groceries, not forgetting water, squash etc under the model railway in the garage. Oooh and paper goods secreted in odd cupboards upstairs. He has always had this tendency to stock up which became exacerbated with Brexit and Covid. I have just bought a slow cooker in order to cut down on electricity and this has warranted a rearrangement of kitchen cupboards. This has brought home to me just how much stuff we have! I have also realised that he is just the same with medicines. Two of the large shelves in the kitchen wall cupboards, plus four of the shelves in the small cupboards are full of medicines, both prescription and other, plus plasters etc. You may wonder why this has come as a surprise to me? Well, DH has always done a lot of the cooking but since I had my pacemaker fitted, as we have an induction hob, he has done nearly all except for baking.
So I suppose I shouldn’t complain really!
