Pinterest Boards

 Here are a few of my Pinterest boards that are about being self-sufficient. There are a ton of things in them all that need to be known and learned. One of the things that I have been doing whenever I get a chance, is printing off the stuff and putting it in a binder. That way even without power I will have the information on hand. I have found so much information on Pinterest that I had not even thought of before. It is a great place to find DIY projects, recipes, and more.

Cloth Diapers!

Print this off to keep on hand as a reference on how to fold cloth diapers. I used cloth diapers on my Little Man and was amazed at how easy it actually was and how much money we saved. We did have several All In One (AIO) Cloth Diapers that we used for travel, etc. But actually used Prefold Diaper most of the time. Started using them when it was found out very early on that Little Man was allergic to diapers. Something in the gel stuff that is in them to catch the leaks. UGH. If you are looking for a way to save money and have a baby in the house try using cloth diapers. Safer for them than diapers and saves money!

What is the importance of First Aid in being prepared?

When we talk about being prepared, we mean having an all rounder approach. Self sufficiency; providing for and protecting your family doesn’t just mean knowing how to plant and grow vegetables, it also includes being able to care for them in a time of crisis. First Aid skills are vital in protecting your family during times of crisis. If you have children, you know how difficult it is to keep an eye on them and stop them from injuring themselves on any old day. While you may not be able to stop every injury from happening, you can help stop a regular injury from becoming any worse. Cuts and bruises for example are prominent among kids, but with a little know-how you can stop these from becoming infected, swollen and even painful. Having a well stocked First Aid kit is the first step towards being properly prepared for injuries, to take a step further, you could take a first aid course, like the ones at First Aid Management and Training Centre, which will equip you with all the skills you will need to protect your family from any nasty injuries. Remember to use common sense though, if the injury looks too serious for you be of any help, immediately call the emergency services so they can quickly assist and stop any serious situation from becoming any worse.

Knowing the basics of first aid is an amazing skill to have, it not only saves lives, but it is helpful towards the community. Depending on the size of your community, if emergency services are not in close range, you could be the key to keeping someone alive or letting them die waiting for a distance ambulance. If you are serious about being prepared, giving yourself vital skills is the best thing you could do.

Try Out Survival Skills & Items Before You Actually Need Them

I received a Bemco Backpacker Oven a while back to review and loved it so much. I am using those Sterno heater things in it right now and cannot find them anywhere in my small town and it is about 50 miles one way to get to somewhere that would have them for sale. Well, we were at the Dollar Tree the other day and I usually stay away from the party decor aisle. I just never need that stuff. Little Man seen a balloon and went running, I chased after him and way back in the corner were some of these Fancy Heat things. They look like Sterno heaters , but when you take off the lid they actually have a wick. $1.00 for them so I bought 2 of them to try out. I am trying one out now in my backpacker oven to see how good they work. So far, it is heating up good. It says on the label that is should heat for 2 hours. Plenty enough time to cook something up in the oven. The corn bread is in the oven now and it really seems to me that these are going to work. I will be going back to Dollar Tree and getting some more of these to cook with. Great to know that they work really well and are only $1.00!!
