Getting Ideas From The Walking Dead

I watch The Walking Dead anymore and all that I can think about is how right it would be to have a few of those Samurai Swords on hand! LOL Crazy thought , but it really does make sense. If SHTF how are we going to be able to have a steady stream of ammo for our guns? I seriously doubt that my family would be able to. Just thinking realistically. We have to think of other ways to have protection. There are many ways , not just Samurai Swords! But, that is one way. Plus, they would look good setting up on my shelf.

What others items can be used for protection?

Baked beans

Soak the beans overnight and then drain and rinse them. Cook them in water until they are tender. Pour out the water into a bowl and set aside. Fry the bacon and add to the beans along with alk of the other ingredients. Add enough of the water you set aside to just cover the beans. Bake slowly in an oven that is set at 250 degrees for about 3 hours.

When Little Man has broken some of his crayons that he has what seems like thousands of, I can then make Candles out of them.

Really easy and a great way to use up all of the broken pieces.

You just need to get some of these - Votive Candle Wicks.

What to do with empty 72 hr survival kit bucket...

I was wanting to use my empty 72 hour survival ki bucket to make a survival car kit for my daughter. But, my little man found it and decided he needed it for his crayons! That's ok, I guess, just goes to show you that there are many things that you can do with one of those buckets!

What ideas can you come up with for one???
