What's your "weird" prep? (lemm.ee)

What is your unconventional prep. Something that you think is uncommon or weird, but will always keep extras of?

Personally I've been really big on keeping canned pumpkin on hand. While it's not the most nutrient dense food around it has the most fiber out of any canned item I can find and adds a new taste to everything. Goes great in mashed potatoes and soup.

I'll be making a post about this soon, but one of my weirder preps is that my partner and I pre-write obituaries for each other annually.

Among many other scenarios that we have planned out, we have put substantial time into ensuring that when one of us passes on, the hard work for the other is done.

It may seem morbid, but my partner and I find it sweet, all the things we get to say about each other. We usually have a cry, a laugh, and get a deeper appreciation of each other when we're done.
