Keep On Prepping - Food Storage

Still trying to prep for anything. Seems like everyday something else comes up and I am getting more. Just sit and daydream and then some other type of prep comes into my mind! Or watch a movie and some other idea comes up. The other day I just so happened to see a post on a FB group and was like "What there is Tortilla Ready Mix ?" - They are easy to make , but this is something to have on hand! My whole family loves tortillas. I do have a few 10 packs in the freezer, but now I can make some on my fire pit if the grid goes down, maybe? One part of how I prep is making it easier to make things if off grid and I hope I have.

                           A tortilla press and a good pan for cooking them on comes in handy also.

Cool Off & Have Fun

 

A Blow Up Pool is a must in this heat if you don't have a in ground pool or pond! We would never leave the house if we didn't have one. LOL The humidity was 100% yesterday here, so our pool was a great way to cool down and have fun. To make it to where I did not have to clean and refill every single day, I got these to help - HydroTools by Swimline Floating Mini Tablet Spa Chemical Dispenser and Clorox Pool&Spa Small Pool 1" Chlorinating Tablets 1.5 lb. They really help, a lot.  A Pool Cover is what I am going to get soon. 

Keeping cool should be fun , not a lot of work.
