Dehydrate Spaghetti Sauce

This would really come in handy if you buy bulk spaghetti sauce in extra large cans or jars. That way you could have them in smaller servings.

Make Your Own Dehydrated Food

I did not get anything done this weekend that I wanted to do. I did not feel good. It must have been a 24 hour bug. But I did relax and read through a ton of great blogs about self reliance, survival, stockpiling food, and more. I found this post about making Dehydrated baby food and will be busy this upcoming weekend!! Great idea even if you do not have babies , I think. I am going to have so much fun seeing what all I can do with this. I need a new blender first though. But, I already have ideas in my head spinning around.

Wood Burning Barrel Stove Kit

I saw one of these kits at the local True Value today and have to say that it is such a neat idea. I want one now. They only had one left and the salesperson walked by and heard me talking to my husband about it and how neat the idea was and she said that they had sold 29 of them today alone!!! How great that other people are thinking about being prepared and taking care of their families. I wonder where someone would get one of those big metal , burn safe, barrels from though????

ANYONE HAVE ONE OF THESE OR KNOWS ABOUT THEM PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!! SEND ME PHOTOS OF YOURS , ETC TO My EMAIL AND I WILL POST A WHOLE THING WITH ALL OF THE PHOTOS THAT I GET OVER THE NEXT FEW WEEKS.

Dehydrate Food In Your Oven

This is what I will be trying this weekend. I do not have an actual food dehydrator , so I am going to try and use my oven. I have searched online and found some great information, websites, and tips on doing it. And since it is supposed to be cold and snowy here this weekend, it seems like the perfect time to try this out. Download our free toolbar

How Much Food To Store??

I have been wondering about this a lot lately. The times are not getting any better and more and more people are out of work. We all need to be stockpiling as much as we can , while we can. I found this Food Storage Calculator online that is helping me with some ideas on how much to have stored. This gives you an idea of what you will need and you can work off of from there.

We need to get prepared and be ready in case something , like an natural emergency or job loss, comes a long our family is well prepared for anything that comes.

Think about non food items also. Stockup on EVERYTHING that you normally use every day!! Soap, laundry items, tools, paper items, etc.

THINK THINK THINK AND PLAN PLAN PLAN.
