I started prepping much the same as you. I purchased "bulk food items" as I could afford it, based on the room available for storage.
I would recommend adding dry beans next.
Rice & beans make a complete protein. Thanks for your post

It's nice to know I'm not alone. Often it seems like people who are further down the road can forget what it's like to start out. Also, people prepare for different things. I like to prepare for my most likely situation(s). Most places I seek information from stress storing water and not relying on a freezer etc. That's fine if your area is prone to natural disasters or things that would otherwise limit your access to water or electricity. I can't even remember the last time we had a power outage even for an hour.
We already use dry beans in our cooking, so it's a really good idea to stock up on those next. We have about 1 months worth now I think.
