We now have a pretty good-sized stock of canned (heirloom) tomatoes such that we are able to use them freely, but we had to overcome old habits of hoarding them in case we ran out. Same with veggies in the freezer. I'd find myself holding back, but then would find I hadn't used everything when the next year's crop came in.

I'm thinking it's best to use preserved stuff freely and if you run out, you run out. And know to put more up next year. How about you?
