Grow Your Own Groceries: Vegetables

Grow Your Own Groceries: Vegetables was a free kindle book when this post was written.

Imagine walking out to your backyard or sunny patio and picking your own Plump Juicy tomatoes and crisp lettuce for a healthy salad. It just puts you at peace, knowing how it was grown and that it is fresh and healthy. I often plan the menu depending on what’s ready to harvest. Eating this way is so much easier than menu planning and grocery shopping all the time. There are so many reasons to grow your own foods organically and you don’t need to spend a fortune to do so. You can start as big or small as you like. Do you like BLTs with sweet tomatoes and crisp lettuce? Grow a tomato plant with some lettuce planted at its base. Who doesn’t love Spaghetti? You could even make your own Spaghetti sauce. Do you like fresh crisp Lettuce on your burger? Do you use Green Onions? Grow them both in a small pot on a sunny windowsill. This book covers everything you need to know to grow your own vegetables easily and inexpensively.

In this book you will learn:



  • Some of the top reasons to grow your own foods

  • Where to get seeds and plants for far less than the stores

  • How to easily grow, companion plant, harvest, store and collect seeds from 14 of the most popular vegetables

  • Which of these can be regrown from Grocery store produce and seed

  • How to make 3 basic potting soils yourself that are far better than the name brands

  • How to grow and use your own mulches, even in pots!

  • How to make your own trellis’s, plantable seed starting pots, cloches etc…from things you have around the house or can purchase inexpensively from the hardware store.
Growing your own Groceries: Vegetables is just a first to come in a series of eBooks on growing your own foods. It couldn’t be easier to grow your own foods, even if you are in an apartment with limited space. All you need is a sunny window sill to get started.

Are You and Your Family Ready to Survive the Next Disaster?

Power Outages. Blizzards. Floods. Mudslides. Earthquakes. Tornadoes. Hurricanes. No matter where you live, you are in a natural disaster prone area. There are natural disasters on an almost daily basis all around the world. Not to mention man-made disasters.

There are threats of wars, terrorist attacks and jokes about zombie's taking over. The world economy is crumbling and if the disaster of Hurricane Katrina taught us anything, it’s that we can’t really depend on the government to help us.

If you are interested in learning how to protect your family from any and all of the inevitable disasters that could potentially happen, this book is your first step to learning how to prepare for any emergency situation.

Prepping 101: A Beginner’s Survival Guide will teach you the fundamental rules of basic survival for helping you and your family survive no matter the situation, all in simple terms that even the most novice of beginners can understand and implement.

In this book you will learn how to:

- Understand the psychology of thinking like a survivor.
- Pack an age appropriate Bug Out Bag for each member of your family.
- Purify water and determine which foods you can dehydrate and store.
- Build a fire and shelter in a wilderness survival situation.
- Administer CPR and other common first aid necessities.
- And much, much more!

Survivors are a unique group of people. Some people call us Survivalists, Doomsday Preppers, or Patriots. You may not consider yourself any of those things. Whatever you may want to call yourself, if you're reading this, you are on the first step to helping your family becoming an Emergency Prepared Survivors.

Welcome to Prepping 101.

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.
