The Rationale Behind Homesteading: The Key To Self Sufficiency

The Rationale Behind Homesteading: The Key To Self Sufficiency was a free kindle book when this post was written.

"The Rationale Behind Homesteading: The Key To Self Sufficiency" will help the reader to not only understand the concepts that surround the process of homesteading, but to learn how to implement them as well. This process is not as complex as many individuals may think and can be achieved in relatively small spaces.

The great thing is that someone does not have to adopt all the principles of homesteading, rather do what they can to be somewhat self sustainable -- like growing their own herbs and vegetables. The individual can even make other changes to become more of an urban homesteader like converting to solar energy and canning and storing food.

In this society many persons are seeking viable solutions to keep within their budget, or even to lower their current budget. This is one of the best methods that you can use to be able to cut the ever-rising costs. This text gives some great tips on how this can be achieved.

Get Organized! Label Everything!

 

 

Slowly, I am getting this house organized. It is taking forever. Seems like when I get one spot done another one is in more of a mess. The one thing that is taking me so long is that I am packing a lot of things up in boxes to put in the shed. I have a ton of stuff in the house that I have to keep , but can be safely set out in shed if boxed up good.  But, the number one thing that you have to do when boxing up items to store, is you have to label them well. Label everything.

 

I was sent some of these awesome Sharpie Permanent markers to review. They work the best for this type of job. You have no worries about the writing coming off or staying clear. I taped a piece of paper onto the outside of the box and used the Sharpie Premium Pen to make a list on it of what was in the box. Makes it a lot easier to deal with , put them together, and know what is inside. I love the Sharpie premium pen. It just feels so good to write with. This is now my favorite pen to use for everything. Plus, it is refillable.

 

If I have something dark to write on I can use the Metallic Permanent Marker for writing on it. Shows up great. I used a silver one to write on the black paper in the picture on this post. I love it. Great to write with and shows up very well. I had never had a metallic marker like these before and these really surprised me at how well they show up and how well they look on the black paper. Really cool.

 

We had a lot of fun with our new Sharpie Neon Permanent Markers! Used them to decorate some sunglasses and I love the ones that my daughter did. She now has some very stylish sunglasses for if we ever have a summer!! This winter is going on and on and it was fun to decorate the sunglasses and think about summer. These worked great for decorating with. Dried very quick so we did not have to worry about them smearing or messing up while she did the work. They also are fun for the fact that they fluoresces under a black light. Countless ideas on what can be done with these fun markers.

 

You can get all of these and all of your Office Supplies and Office Stationary at one great place online. All of your Promotional Products can be found here too. Promotional Shirts can be found there for all of your business promo needs.

3 Things done out of 1 celery bunch!

 

WOW! I actually did 3 things with my bunch of celery.

 

First thing was , we took some of the stems and did a science experiment with them. Put them in different colors of food coloring. Teach the Little Man how water moves through plants. He can actually see the water go up into the plant.

 

Second thing that I did was take all of the celery and slice it up. Put it into my food dehydrator. More dehydrated celery to add to my jar for soups. Yummy.

 

The bottom I put into a small cup of water to get it to start. The one of the right I had done about a week ago and it is starting to grow. This Friday have to go and get some bags of potting soil and get some pots. One of these I am going to keep indoors to see how it does and if it can even be grown indoors. Just to see. I would really love to be able to grow a lot of items indoors in case something happens and going outdoors in not an option. We would still have the fresh veggies and herbs growing for us to eat.  

Sore Throat? Cold? Try mint tea!

 

I always try and keep a pot of mint growing in the house. On my kitchen window sill now is a Herbs in a can  of mint. My son bought me it about 2 weeks ago and they are just sprouting. So cute. But, fresh mint is so good for making a tea with that helps with colds and flu. I add real honey to it and it really soothes a sore throat.

 

Easy to make:

 

Put a couple of sprigs of the mint into a teapot and pour in a couple of cups of boiling water. Cover it and let it infuse for a few minutes. Strain it and drink! Add the honey to it right before you drink it.

 

Also is good for indigestion, nausea, headaches.

 

If you have no fresh mint you can use dried. Use a teaspoonful per cup.

Bugging In: How to Hunker Down and Survive in an Emergency Situation

Bugging In: How to Hunker Down and Survive in an Emergency Situation (Stay Alive) was a free book for the kindle when this post was written.


Are you prepared to survive in a shelter-in-place emergency situation?
Well, are you? If you are, pat yourself on the back. You're a step ahead of most people. The average citizen turns a blind eye to disaster preparedness and is largely unprepared to handle all but the most minor of emergency situations.

Do you really want to take a chance that could cost you and your family your lives?

The first thing most victims say is, "I never thought it would happen to me." Don't be caught unprepared when an emergency strikes that forces you to take refuge in your own home. The time to get ready for a crisis situation is now. Wait until the last minute and you'll be forced to pay top dollar for food, water and supplies, if you can find them at all. If not, you'll be forced to scavenge for scraps or beg for help, along with hundreds of thousands of others who couldn't be bothered to prepare.

The following topics are covered in this helpful and easy to read book:

• What hunkering down is and why it's preferred over bugging out.
• The disasters you should start prepping for.
• Bugging out vs. bugging in.
• The meaning of normalcy bias and how it can get you killed.
• Questions you need to ask yourself in an emergency situation that will help you determine the best course of action.
• The 5 plans you need in order to survive.
• Building a Get Home Bag that will give you the best chance of making it home if a disaster occurs while you're away.
• How long should you prepare to survive on your own?
• Shelter: Don't make any assumptions.
• Shutting down utilities.
• Water . . . Must have water.
• How to keep from freezing to death when the power is out.
• How not to starve to death.
• Staying clean when there's no running water.
• How to handle first aid emergencies when there is no professional medical care available.
• How to stay safe when you can't call the cops.
• How stockpiling alcohol and tobacco might save your life.
• Why you might not want to run a generator. HINT: There's a better option.
