I tell them not to come. We will be buggged out and/or locked down. I am facing this issue with my sister.

I took a slightly different approach to determining how much to put back. After 3 years of trying to find a calculation that worked for me, I decided to do one on my own. I found the recommended servings of each food group by age and sex and activity level. I then input the number of people I...

Sounds as though heaven has gained an angel. Reading your description of her brings a tear to my eye thinking of an elderly neighbor I had growing up. He was one of God's angels here on earth too. I can't wait to see him again someday! :hugs

I call the entitlement group the "more for free bunch". BTW- I live in So. IN too. Meth is horrible. In my hometown, a man killed his wife and small child and stuffed them into a rubbermaid container. The smell was was bad that his neighbors complained, which is how the police found out...

Thank you very much. I would have a job already if we chose to move. I have used city search, but wanted to hear from my ss buddies too. :)

I have a possible job opportunity in Boise ID. I know nothing about the area. Before I get too much further into the interview process, I would like to know a little bit more. Such as: 1. Is there an area of the city to avoid? It seems that a lot of the houses I have been looking at on-line...

Why is food so high in Canada?

If you want to go the prepared route, check out the TVP from augason farms via the Sam's Club website. It is much cheaper than emergency essentials. I will try the hamburger rocks! :P

Just had to add that I am a Libertarian too. This is interesting.....

Hi! I am a CPA, so I thought that I would offer my 2 cents here. Bascially, I agree with much of what DR says and think he has some great ideas. However, if your finances are a bit more complex that daily budgeting etc, he is not the best. Some of the things he is SO negative on, can be...

Good thing I have so many peppers. I think that I will try both. Yummy.:P

I am canning salsa today. I made it last night and put in the fridge to sit over night to let the flavors mingle. I had a bit of corn left so I added that to the salsa, it gave it a bit of sweet crunch. I just love to hear to pop when you can. It makes me feel so, umm, prepared.

Wife- Can I use a combo of jalapenos and thai chilis? I would think that it would be OK.

So do the Tatler lids works as well as the metal ones? I have been thinking about buying some, but they are little pricy. However, if they are as good as they say, it may well be worth it.

Everyone thinks that I am strange to can meat, but I love it for quick meals. You are getting me motivated.

I have to tell you that I canned the absolutely most delicous corn today. It was bi-colored and perfect. It was so good, we just ate corn for dinner tonight! :P

Does anyone have any idea how to make the red type pepper sauce? I know that it probably wont be exact, but I have got peppers coming out of my ears and my son LOVES hot sauce. :P

I love mine. Really tenderizes and helps seasonings to penetrate.

I get my staples from LDS cannery in Indianapolis- milk is especially a good buy from here. Sam's Club has Augason Farms brand which come in a 2-pks. The cheese powder is WONDERFUL. Emergency Essentials has a wide variety of foods in #10 cans, from baking powder to popcorn, which have very...

Not much else I can add that hasn't been said. If I am paranoid, then so be it. I try to stock for long term storage,nutrient dense foods, but I have also put back some "treats" to help with food fatigue. Popcorn stores well and makes a great treat. Hard candy is also a good long term...
