Your mom has a lot of flour. I'm embarrassed to say I have my fair share, too. My pantry also has rice flour, as well as all-purpose, self-rising, Czech semi-coarse, Czech fine, whole wheat, whole wheat pastry, and almond flour.

Maybe about two years or so ago, I was a touch hypomanic. At the store, I saw that Domino's reduced their bag size from 5-lb bags to 4-lb bags. They were all on sale during the "transition", which would eventually equate to charging the old 5-lb bag price for the 4-lb bags. In rebellion, I bought 34 lbs of sugar (that's over 15 kg) to beat the price hike. My husband took a picture of some of them (see attached). I did get a comment from the cashier that day, after which I went on a rant about corporations putting less and less product in packaging. Sad fact was that all of that sugar didn't last that long. I'm lucky I don't yet have diabetes. And of course I have confectioner's sugar, both types of brown sugar, plenty of honey, agave nectar, corn syrup, and molasses. Plus non-sugar sweeteners (Truvia, sucralose powder and sucralose liquid, and erythritol.)
I hear you about packaging being smaller and smaller. You have enough baking ingredients to make plenty of different treats!
