Getting Ideas From The Walking Dead

I watch The Walking Dead anymore and all that I can think about is how right it would be to have a few of those Samurai Swords on hand! LOL Crazy thought , but it really does make sense. If SHTF how are we going to be able to have a steady stream of ammo for our guns? I seriously doubt that my family would be able to. Just thinking realistically. We have to think of other ways to have protection. There are many ways , not just Samurai Swords! But, that is one way. Plus, they would look good setting up on my shelf.

What others items can be used for protection?

Food storage recipe - baked beans

Baked beans

Need:

2 cups of dried navy beans

A few slices of bacon

1 tablespoon of brown sugar

1/3 cup of molasses

5 tablespoon of ketchup

Soak the beans overnight and then drain and rinse them. Cook them in water until they are tender. Pour out the water into a bowl and set aside. Fry the bacon and add to the beans along with alk of the other ingredients. Add enough of the water you set aside to just cover the beans. Bake slowly in an oven that is set at 250 degrees for about 3 hours.
