Keeping Warm With No Power...

 

You can use an Oil Lamp to keep warm. I saved a  few of my soup cans and they fit perfectly on this mason jar oil lamp. You have to cut both ends off of the can. It focuses the heat together and it does get very warm. Also, it doesn't seem to use much fuel. This one has actual oil made for oil lamps, but I have some kerosene saved back (my kerosene heater wick was used up and I couldn't change the wick) that I will use in my oil lamps for this. I have several of these made up and ready for if the power goes out. Thinking for the bathroom. I have a Mr Buddy Propane Heater for the living room, with curtains on the doors to close if I have to keep heat in there. Getting prepped for winter.

Food Storage Recipe - Canned Tomatoes Salsa

 

 

                                                             The easiest recipe for salsa!!  

                                              A can of diced tomatoes (always in the food stockpile)

                                              Dice some onion and green pepper.

                                              Add about a teaspoon of minced garlic.

                                              A tablespoon of lime juice.

                                              Salt and pepper 

                                              Small bit of chopped up cilantro.

                                              A small bit of red pepper flakes.

          My blender broke so I had to just use my hand held potato masher. It worked pretty good. 

                                                         It will be chunky salsa. 

YUMMY!

                                             

Portable Power Station (Solar)

I have been waiting for months for the inergy solar generator that I ordered. So, I was tired of waiting and getting worried that I would not have at least something soon, I ordered a EF ECOFLOW Portable Power Station Delta 1000. It came really fast and already charged.

 I had gotten a small 3.2 Cubic Foot Mini Fridge With Freezer that I had just sat in my kitchen. Hooked it up to this and it started right up!! As you can see in the photos - it says that with the fridge hooked up and running it would have 16 hours. 

                           This is a must have item. This should run lights, fridge, wi-fi, etc. 

               Over the next few weeks I will test more items with it and make update post.
