No-Bake Cookies

I love cookies and treats. This cookbook, No-bake Cookies: More Than 150 Fun, Easy & Delicious Recipes for Cookies, Bars, And Other Cool Treats Made Without Baking is awesome for making cookies without an oven and they are great. It is so fun to be able to make a treat when it is hot or we have no power. I can boil things on my camp stove if I have to and then we have a special snack.

On The Search For A Grain Mill

Me and my husband have already decided that when his taxes come back and all of our bills are paid up , that we are going to buy a cheap grain mill. I am finding though that there are so many out there to choose from. What do I get?? I would like to have one that is hand operated. In case we have a time with no power. What is the best one to get?


HELP!

Any advice will be greatly appreciated. This is the one thing that we do not have and it is really the last thing that we need to get to have all of our gear that we will need.
