Cool Thrift Store Find

I love sewing and I love going to thrift stores. I haven't been going to our local thrift store a lot lately. It was pretty cool that the first time I go in a while I find something neat. A cute battery operated Singer sewing machine and for only $1.00! It was worth it to buy, even if it didn't work. But, I got home put 2 C batteries in it and it actually works. I even sewed a couple of hankies for my Little Man's stuffed up nose.

If you find yourself asking any of these questions, then it's important for you to know these food preservation and storage techniques.

YOUR GOAL:: Establish a 3 Month Food Storage Supply for You & Your Family

I want to challenge you to gather enough food for you and your family to survive on for 3 full months, preserve it using canning, pickling, dehydrating and/or freezing strategies, and safely store it.

There could be a natural disaster that contaminates our water supply and leaves us without food. These are just to name a few.

If you are smart and start preserving and storing food at home to get you through these potentially devastating times, you and your family will have a greater chance of surviving any situation.
