This is just a thought that I had and please correct me if I am wrong. But I do not think that this is a good thing , or really it is good, but not for the long haul. I think that it is just that time of year when companies are hiring seasonal ( Christmas) workers for Temporary. After the Holidays they will be back out of work. ??????? Maybe I am wrong. But, I remember hearing that there were quite a few companies hiring thousands of seasonal. Like Fed Ex was going to hire a lot. So this might be good temporary , but will it help in the long run????????

eFoods Direct - Creamy Potato Soup = YUMMY!!!!

I have found a new favorite soup! I got it in a sample pack from eFoodsDirect.com - Long term storable foods!! The Creamy Potato soup! Really good soup. Just boil 4 1/2 cups of water and whisk this mix in! Soon your soup is done. I was surprised at how good it was and how easy it was to make. I am planning on getting some more of it.

Home Made Peanut Butter - I did it!!

Spent the day shelling peanuts and making homemade peanut butter. It was pretty easy. I got the recipe for doing it from my favorite book - Homemade: A Surprisingly Easy Guide to Making Hundreds of Everyday Products You Would Otherwise Buy
! I love this book! It has so many things in it that I have made. I use this book about everyday. But the peanut butter was pretty good. I did not get the peanuts ground really fine , so the peanut butter is crunchy. Which , I love!! So, this peanut butter is for me alone. Everyone in the house loves smooth. I will eat them both. I am too poor to gripe about the food. LOL

Oh and just found out that my son's computer does not have the right place on it for me to put my camera. It is an older Olympus digital camera. I had took photos of the whole process of making the peanut butter , too. :(

Baking Bread Part 2

The bread turned out pretty good and was gone by evening. LOL
I still need more practice. I did not think that the bread was "fluffy" enough. But, of course that might be just me. I am used to buying packaged bread.
I am still going to bake bread every weekend until I get it done right. I want to be able to bake bread good enough that if there was an emergency I would be able to do it with no problem. I am a firm believer that you need to learn to do things before it is needed!!!!!!

Winterizing The House

Unfortunately, we have to spend another winter in this cracker box of a house. Which is much too small and too cold. So we have been trying to do some stuff to get it ready for winter. I spent the other day, which was way too warm and nice to be thinking about the cold of winter, wrapping the bottom of our small back deck with some black rubber stuff. My husband got it from his work - I think that it actually is supposed to be laid on the floor so that workers do not slip in factories. But anyway he got 10 of them and I put 3 of them around the bottom of our back porch/deck. To keep the wind out of the crawl space. We did not find out until this past spring that it was under there and does not shut up to well. So then we knew why the floor was always so cold. LOL
Next we got most of the windows in the house covered with plastic and I have new insulated curtains up in all of the bedrooms and living room.
Next weekend we are going to seal up the back door. We are going to try and do it between the screen and the door. That way we can still get out if we had too. Just rip the plastic off. But it will seal up the doors. A lot of air gets in our back door because the screen door does not seal up right.

MY WISH - the next house we get has a wood burning stove!

Starting To Feel Better!

I have been so sick with an awful sinus infection. And now finally after a round of anti-biotics and changing my diet a bit. (Cut out sodas, coffee, and sugars) I am feeling a lot better. I actually have a bit of energy. There for a month I could barely move.
Now I will be able to write more and share some of the stuff that we have been doing to get prepared.

Reasons To Have Food Storage

Let’s face it. The thought of food storage is a bit daunting right? We know, we get it.
