It might as well be Mt. Everest….

It might as well be Mt. Everest….
That is what some of you who read me think – or you dont read me at all because I whig you out with the talk of a food pantry and being prepared.   Its ok – I can deal. But what if I could get you prepared and you didnt even know it.   I mean, you might notice it a little, but it isnt...

Reason #4867 of Why I love my Pantry

One of the reasons I have listed for deepening my pantry is for charity. Its listed in just about everyone’s reasons (to take care of those you love) but it is a practical reason when the world hasnt gone to hell in a hand basket. Someone’s personal life may have…. People fall...

I am all over the map on this post….

I prep. Yall know it. My friends know it. And people who know me know it. I have kept some things close to the vest, but in regards to food and the like, I have tried to get those around me to be a little more prepared. I outlined my “why” in a previous post (and I am too lazy to hunt...

Now go brush your teeth…..

So – you have a TON of food and I am so proud of you!!! Some of it will need to have its shelf life extended, but if you are using the oldest food first and eating what you are storing, you are fine for a good long while. Meaning, I intend to show you how to store it for a long shelf life, but...

F.O.O.D.

The beginning of any preparations is FOOD. If it was just me, I am pretty sure I could get away with only storing Nutella and microwave popcorn (heavily buttered)….it would give me the something salty, something sweet that I look for in my food groups – but alas, as with so many things, I...

Prepping 101 (it is back to school time, after all)

I had a great convo recently with 3 PRECIOUS women. They have been in my life for about 8 months, but I swear, it so feels like much longer. They are kindred spirits even though it seems to be in different ways. One is a prepper like me. It was such a gift to find her – when you think “prepper”...

Food Storage….

Its been a while…. I have continued to stock and deepen our pantry. One of the most valuable tools I have found is the coupon. I also havent posted about couponing in a while, but I go every week and have not had less than 60% savings since my last post. I average high 60′s with a few...

No Couponing yesterday….

I tried – went through my circular and my coupons and there was like 1 thing that matched up – so I didnt go. They were having what looked like good sales for items – 10 for $10 they called it, but I could have gotten it cheaper at Walmart…. But I do want to tell you about...

Who knew it was a Science?

Coupons…. Now – I have used coupons off and on for years – but it just didnt work out. It seemed like a WHOLE LOT OF WORK for 35 cents on something I wouldnt normally use – so I quit… UNTIL NOW…. I am giving it another try…. We have a grocery store in our...

DONT BE AFRAID….

I have it from a really reliable source, that KJ doesnt read this blog because she says I scare her. I had to quiz my source and find out if it was because she thought I was nuts or because the “whole situation” scared her. It was the later, although it wouldnt have surprised me if it...
