It's weird packaged meals are mentioned as being sold out, most the stores I've been to have loads of those still! I buy some occasionally, but not many cause I dont like the salt content. More often I prefer from scratch, like grandpa said "homecooked is a taste of the love you have for...

Hey all, with all the bad going on I wanted to share some good~ Our garden bv has produced~ A cabbage! Theres another lil one, but we're waiting to pick it as of yet. As well, the corn starts I bought at the school sale are adjusting well! And weve finally got A broccoli! We planted a...

I've been suprised how many people been ignoring things like jello, sauces and sweets. Getting food bored is a thing and sometimes having what might seem a 'frivolous' food now can be mega uplifting.

Their destroyers of small bussiness's and especially more sonlocal bussiness's. They shouldnt be allowed or able to do that :( it's like the milk thing thats been going on, their buying all they can (or more usual just straight up taking over small dairy farms) and turning round n selling it...

Welp they just closed all schools in my area until the 27 this month at least. My communication class has transferred online until then at least and my math class is off? Until the 20th at least, and then might be online which kinda sucks cause I need a lot of help in that subject 😥😓 no info on...

Dont think I've had good frog legs yet, so thankfully no froggies here. Hoping to get some birds mayby tho

Same here, it's been interesting seeing people reactions as panic buying is going on. Pretty sure housespouse is happy I try to keep a full pantry now, when less than a month ago they were upset cause I wasn't using everything in the pantry first before buying more. Hopefully when this all...

Went to the store to top off a few things and Mary jesus and the handbag n donkey, I am so glad I didnt wait and paid attention to what was going on elsewhere. It's like everyone here got a single signal and are freaking out panic buying hardcore all at the same time. Theres no tp, wet whipes...

https://thesurvivalmom.com/august-skill-of-the-month-make-your-own-yeast/ This link has a few ways to make yeast :) I haven't tried em yet but theres a couple methods

buy flour and yeast, baking soda and baking flour. If you don't have eggs and milk to make regular bread, you can make flour tortillas. Look up the recipes and stock up the items you need. I do, I buy flour, sugar, yeast, baking soda all in bulk. Cause when i bake i bake a lot lol Powdered...

Its gonna be interesting to see how things go, I'm hoping our garden starts picking up soon and that at least food stuffs dont start running out at the store. Pretty sure being the only house with a garden in the fronts gonna put a bit of a target on us if it does :( Just in case we've been...

Glad to see others preparing just in case, cause it looking more like not if but when now

Hope everyone is well! Anyone else taking some preventive measures just in case?

Ah! That might be a bit of a dent then lol You know more than I do at the moment lol, I haven't brewed yet so I dont know the time frames for good spent grain and not yet 😅 Man that stinks! My mom pretty much just showed me how to boil water (ramen and mac n cheese) and cook an egg in the...

Ah! My dad used to brew but doesnt anymore, hasnt in awhile so I dont know all the steps yet. Just knew yeast was something he used lol. I should get into brewing someday, sounds like it's a good to know skill and with that bread recipe could hit a couple birds with one stone 👍 Hrmmm that...

I wonder what the nutritional benefit of the spent grain would be for people? I know it's great for critters and a lot of people like using it if they can get it but how does one store something like that for extended time?.? And possibly using that for bread sounds like a fun experiment! I...

Hello hello from arizona! Welcome to sufficientself! Always cool to see new faces and to share and learn from one another!

I've been figuring out how to do this, it's been a bit easier here I think cause we get a lot of hot sunny days.

I've been wanting to use tattlers! The reusable option sounds great if a shtf situation happened, cause eventually manufacturing of the metal lids may stop or one may not be able to get anymore easily, but I dont know anyone who's tried them. Let us know how you like em if you try em?

I agree. No animal deserves mistreatment or a cruel life and even more so a cruel end. A quick end as compassionate as possible and a good life too is a must, it's part of the reason I want to raise my own animals, so I know they got the best they could get and I could verify it too. All those...
