Starting Seeds Indoors
Starting seeds indoors! They are growing so good. I hope they transplant great. I have a shelf in my kitchen in front of a south facing window full of starts. Tomatoes, green beans, baby corn, lettuce, cauliflower, broccoli, green peppers, sunflowers, and more more. I am doing a garden 2 times bigger than I had last year. Also trying potatoes this year. So happy yesterday when I seen 2 little potato plants growing.
Everyone grow some food!! Anything!! Start a container garden if you have to.

Food Storage Recipe - Split Pea Soup
IT IS COOKING!! |
This morning I was looking for something in my pantry and I found 1 bag of dried split peas and 1 small can of ham!
I don't really measure anything. I put the chopped onion, chopped carrots, chopped up ham, and some seasoning in a big soup pot with a tiny bit of bacon grease. Saute it all until the onions are done - a few minutes.
Add the cleaned dried split peas and ( I usually use chicken broth) but, today I am just using water and a packet of Goya Ham flavoring. Also add salt and pepper.
Let it all cook until the split peas are tender. Eat. You can smash it all up if you want. To make it creamy. I just eat it like it is.

Food Storage Recipe - Breakfast Skillet
Perfect meal!
We even have it for dinner!
Fry up some bacon until it is crisp , drain it (reserving the grease) , and crumble it up.
Put the grease from the bacon into the skillet and saute about a half a cup or chopped onions for a few minutes.
Add 6 cups of shredded hash browns and season.
Press into the skillet and cook until brown on bottom, flip and repeat.
Make 6 wells in the has browns and crack an egg into each one.
Cover and cook on medium low until the eggs are done.
Sprinkle with shredded cheese and the crumbled up bacon.
Recover and let the cheese melt.
The last couple of time that I made this I used the Dehydrated Potato Shreds by Augason Farms. Worked great.

DIY FACE MASK from old clothes in 2 ways - Washable & Reusable face mask...
This is probably the easiest face mask DIY I have found. Other than just folding up a bandana. I can't find bandanas anywhere! Sold out online and I am not going into a store any time soon. I am sewing some up for family members. I have a few on hand also just in case.
There are tons of videos on youtube showing how to make mask.
