    Kid food

    Get online and find a recipe for Thin Wheat Crackers, like Wheat Thins. Those usually go over well, and are easy to make (we reduce the sugar a lot in them). Also, Pizza Pockets are a good option, make ahead and freeze for days when you are in a hurry. We found that most kids will eat anything...

    That one is just fat

    They basically let them run wild with the bucks, so pregnancies are a matter of chance. They had no idea she was pregnant since she always looked it anyway. Another one has gotta be, she has that really prominent bulge on one side that is pretty much only kids laying crosswise.

    That one is just fat

    A herd of wild goats roams the property here. When we got here, I remarked that one of them looked pregnant. The owner said, "Oh, you mean the black one?" I said, "No, a white and brown doe." He replied, "Oh, maybe. Have you seen that black one? She looks like she is about to drop twins any day...

    How to preserve after opening Mylar bag?

    Funny KO - you posted just as I was. If you drop an oxy-pack in and re-seal, you have "doomsday storage" again. It will basically have the original storage life continued (or much more, since most stated storage lifespans are greatly understated). Even if you don't, it will store for extended...

    How to preserve after opening Mylar bag?

    If you are using a Gamma Seal lid, and screwing it down even lightly, you're good. As long as the bucket is closed (hammered down if it is a regular lid), you're doing exactly what you should be doing. Protecting it from air is important, but we have found that insects are really the biggest...

    How to preserve after opening Mylar bag?

    Two options: 1. Get Oxy-Packs and drop one in. That will keep it for another 3-5 years without any significant degradation. 2. If it is going to be less than a year or two between openings, don't bother for most things. Most stable stored items will keep just fine while you use off them, just...

    Heal Naturally - Go To Jail

    I not only don't take prescription drugs, I don't take over the counter ones either. Not even Tylenol. You oughta hear the OB freak out when I tell him I'm NOT taking prenatals. And he never remembers from one visit to the next. I always have to explain EVERY time that they make me sick, and...

    Cosmetic Enhancement

    Ok, someday I'd like to have a tummy tuck - but not for reasons of vanity. But a boob-job? No thanks. I'd fall over.

    I SOOO Wanted to Crash Their Party

    I didn't have so much an attitude about WHAT they are doing, more the attitude they have here about HOW they do it. :)

    Trying new foods.....maybe.

    Salmon cheeks are REALLY good. Like little salmon flavored scallops. You really have to be doing fish in bulk to make it worth digging them out though. I had mutton once, and did not care for it. Looking back, it may have been how it was handled. Have had lamb several times, and really like it.

    Trying new foods.....maybe.

    We've had the usual deer, antelope (sorta gamey), bison, elk, moose, duck, goose, rabbit, goat, etc. On the processing barge in AK when I was 18, I had some Filipino food. My favorite was actually pork, cooked in pork fat and blood. Made a flavorful topping for rice (everything they ate seemed...
