Mosaic,
Lol, you mean living in an earthquake/flood-prone area? Haha, I didn't even mention the wildfires we sometimes have to evacuate for! California certainly has its dangers! But so far we've never actually used our emergency supplies, so yay for that!

But those are great ideas! We typically go through the food and change things out about once a year, but there's no reason I couldn't do it more often. It is in an easily accessible place. So yeah, I'm going to try that!

I was thinking this morning, after reading your response, of putting the protein powder in one of those travel containers for baby formula powder, so it's got three pre-measured servings in an airtight container.

Thanks again!!! Will use your suggestions!
Julie
