This
month the goal is to acquire and store your second week's worth of
water. Now you have your two week supply of water! Celebrate!
For your 3-month storage of everyday foods, look at your
data collected over the last several months of keeping track of what you
eat. Find the average of what you eat per month for each item, and then
divide that average by 4 to see what you eat every week.
Make a shopping list out of your one-week needs and spread this shopping list out over the month so that you’re only buying a couple extra things each trip. Obviously you’ll want to only buy non-perishable foods or the non-perishable equivalent of fresh foods (think canned corn instead of fresh or frozen). This slow accumulation will continue over the next 12 months until you have built up 3 months worth of foods you use on an everyday basis.
