FIFO. have you heard of it? do you do it? i love it.
first in. first out. it's a term i learned in culinary school and it applies to proper food storage. say you have so many jars of peanut butter in your pantry that you can't keep track of which you bought first. you organize them putting the "first one" you purchased in the front so that it can be used and be the "first out." i FIFO mostly everything in my house when i restock. even toilet paper. again, rare breed.
i was organizing the stored breast milk that i have in my freezer and most definitely putting them in correct FIFO order since they are only good for 12 months. i was curious as to how much i've been stocking so i decided to count the bags and calculate the amount of ounces in each bag. that brings it to a grand total of about 5 gallons of breast milk. hence we are in the market for a deep freeze.
vera eats 5 times a day now, usually about 5 oz. at a time. let's do some math.
128oz. = 1 gal.
she needs 25oz. of food for a 24-hr. period.
128/25= roughly 5 days of food for her.
i could almost take a week vacation.
thinking back to my shared thoughts of selling my bodily fluid as liquid gold, let's do some more math.
i've read that you can make $1-$3 per ounce.
128 oz. * $1= $128.00
128 oz. * $3= $384.00
i currently could cash in for $128-$384. not very impressive.
let's say my goal is to devote 15oz. a day to sell (that's on top of breast feeding vera) and i do it for 6 months.
$15/day * 180 days = $2,700
$45/day * 180 days = $8,100
if i keep it up for 6 months, i could cash in for $2,700-$8,100.
impressive.
if i keep it up for 1 year, that's $5,400-$16,200.
now that's a lot of mulah. or should i say moo-lah.

I'm really jealous that you could produce that much...I couldn't. And also, I'm a bit jealous that you get to stay home all day with your daughter. It's something that I want to work towards, but God has definitely blessed you!
