Food Storage Recipe - Breakfast Skillet

Perfect meal!


We even have it for dinner!

Fry up some bacon until it is crisp , drain it (reserving the grease) , and crumble it up.

Put the grease from the bacon into the skillet and saute about a half a cup or chopped onions for a few minutes.

Add 6 cups of shredded hash browns and season.

Press into the skillet and cook until brown on bottom, flip and repeat.

Make 6 wells in the has browns and crack an egg into each one.

Cover and cook on medium low until the eggs are done.

Sprinkle with shredded cheese and the crumbled up bacon.

Recover and let the cheese melt.

The last couple of time that I made this I used the Dehydrated Potato Shreds by Augason Farms. Worked great.

DIY FACE MASK from old clothes in 2 ways - Washable & Reusable face mask...







This is probably the easiest face mask DIY I have found. Other than just folding up a bandana. I can't find bandanas anywhere! Sold out online and I am not going into a store any time soon. I am sewing some up for family members. I have a few on hand also just in case.

There are tons of videos on youtube showing how to make mask.

What I Am Reading Right Now - Flu: The Story Of The Great Influenza Pandemic of 1918 and the Search for the Virus that Caused It

I forgot that I had this book until my son started asking me about the FLU pandemicthat happened in 1918. I am going to read it again with him.
                  
Flu: The Story Of The Great Influenza Pandemic of 1918 and the Search for the Virus that Caused It is a A national bestseller, the fast-paced and gripping account of the Great Flu Epidemic of 1918 from acclaimed science journalist Gina Kolata, now featuring a new epilogue about avian flu.

When we think of plagues, we think of AIDS, Ebola, anthrax spores, and, of course, the Black Death. But in 1918 the Great Flu Epidemic killed an estimated forty million people virtually overnight. If such a plague returned today, taking a comparable percentage of the US population with it, 1.5 million Americans would die.
