And it actually turned out really good. He did not find any of the stockpiled sweets!! He was bored and just went to the food storage and grabbed a couple of cans of stuff and we ended up having Chicken Curry last night for dinner. Ate it over rice. I was so surprised. Just a couple of cans of stuff and some spices and my son made something that I NEVER would have thought to make. Just goes to show you that food storage does not have to be boring. He did start to get a can of Keystone chicken , but I had some chicken breast in the fridge that I made him use. Have to use the perishables first! So he threw everything into a pan. Chicken breast, can of diced tomatoes, 1/2 a can of coconut milk, one small diced potato, diced onion, and some spices. Let it cook and simmer for a while and we served it over rice. Not sure what spices he used, but it was kind of spicy. Not a bad spicy though. Little Man ate some and loved it. Ate seconds. LESSON LEARNED: FOOD STORAGE DOES NOT HAVE TO BE BORING AND TEENAGERS GETTING INTO YOUR FOOD STORAGE IS NOT ALWAYS A BAD THING.

Gadgets To Have When SHTF
If SHTF you might want some of these cool gadgets. They might make life a little bit funner and easier. Take some of the stress off for you and your family.
This Great Northern Popcorn Pit Popper Campfire Firepit Popcorn Popper - Theater Popcorn Outdoors! is something that I want bad. It would be so great to be able to make popcorn for my kids. That is one thing that they really like having.
I like this Esbit Pocket Stove with 6 Fuel Cubes. It is small enough that it is a must-have for any bug-out bag or vehicle survival kit.
Everyone MUST-HAVE one of these - AA and AAA Solar Battery Charger - Charge Your Batteries Via USB or Sun Power - Features Also Include a Battery Tester and USB Output for Charging Cell Phones, iPods/mp3s, and More!! I have one and it is used daily. Get some Duracell Rechargeables Batteries is AA and AAA and you are set. This comes in handy also because it will also charge the cell phones and mp3 players.
This Solar Powered Motion Sensor Detector Alarm is a great thing to have a couple of and set up on your house where it is hard for you to look out on your own. Lets you know if someone walks up on your home. Great security item that does not cost a lot of money!!
Everyone must have good clean water. In an emergency it might be a hard thing to come by! So this 4 Gallon Countertop Water Filter - Save $$$ - Transform Tap Water to Pure Healthy Mineral Drinking Water is something that you have to have. I am getting one and going to stock up on the filters for it for when SHTF!!
A good set of Wide Angle Binoculars could come in handy. Could use them if you have to go hunting or for safety.
A good Compass could really be a life saver. If you ever get lost having one of these would make all of the difference.
My son also said to have a bunch of games and puzzles , like Trivial Pursuit Master Edition to keep everyone busy and together. Games are a great way to pass the time. Maybe get some of those handheld games like - 5000 Games in One Pocket Arcade Handheld Electronic Game - Various Colors or a Electronic Connect 4 the Classic Vertical Four in a Row Game.
I am going to be making a faraday cage soon and want to put some of those handheld games in it too. Just little gadgets that would make kids happy and make life a bit more enjoyable for them. A Portable DVD Player could be something to put in the cage also. Have a movie night with the popcorn that you make on your BBQ!!

The Safest Place To Live??
This is a book that we all need. A great resource for finding the perfect and safest place to move our families too. Over 400 pages full of usefull info.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION :
This is the long-awaited update of Mr. Skousen's classic book on relocation for security. Nearly 3/4 of this 3rd Edition is rewritten and it is expanded to 400 pages. In the process, the authors created all new graphics, charts and tables. There is also a new section on international retreat potential and 200 additional pages of analysis on every state and province of the US and Candada, complete with color maps.
The maps are chock full of detail, including private and public land use, satellite terrain features, military target areas, roads and graphic depictions of population density---one of our major threats to security in a crisis.
Despite the ongoing illusions of peace and prosperity, our world is getting less stable, not more. The economic foundations of the US and the world are all based on fiat money and are crumbling. Earthquakes, Hurricanes, War and terrorism are ever present threats, and the secondary effects of social unrest in large metropolitan areas will be disruptive and dangerous if there is a shortage of essential commodities that cause people to panic.
When you relocate or retire your prime concern should be long-term security, not recreation. Sometimes you can have both. This book is designed to help you relocate around serious threats and to develop contingency plans when you can't relocate due to work or family ties.
Strategic Relocation is more than just pointing out safe areas--simply because the safer the area, the harder it is, generally, to make a living and have access to the conveniences of life. For these reasons, relocation decisions are fairly complex, and Mr. Skousen walks you through all of the difficult choices and compromises that are inevitable in finding safety, without being totally isolated. This book has answers for nearly every situation.
