You Know You Have A Large Family When. . .

. . .you think it is perfectly normal and sensible to have 25 lbs of rice stored in your basement pantry. This is, of course, in addition to the 10 lbs of rice we keep in the kitchen pantry and a few large sized boxes of Minute rice we keep on hand for those nights when we need a quick meal.
As for why are they in juice bottles? Well, since we are looking at having them stored in the basement for a few months, this way we can be pretty well certain that they will remain bug proof.

THAT is an awesome idea! You can do that with flour, sugar and salt too! And that means no having to buy the plastic storage containers either, easy handling, perfect size proportions... what a great idea!

Oh dude... I just thought of all the Ocean Spray cranberry juice we go through. Those would fit perfectly in our cupboards with cereal.
