I would definitely take them. Let them rest a few hours to a day in the fridge before freezing them. When she's ready to cook them, use the crockpot. No matter how she decides to cook them, just make sure that it's slowly. That will help the meat to be tender and moist instead of tough...

Just my 2 cents worth here :D : The list is to meant help make sure that you always have the basics on hand so that, even in a pinch (time or money-wise), you could throw something together, even if it is not the most nutritious meal. It's also a way to show people who easy and affordable it...

Here's a site where you can buy them. http://freckleface.com/shopsite_sc/store/html/gammaseals.html This is something that I still need to get. DH was reluctant back earlier, but he's finally about to give in, I think. I hate prying the lids off every single time I need in my buckets.

If things were to get really bad, we could (and would) give up: 1) satellite TV 2) any extras from the store 3) gas heat - switch to wood - we have about 16 acres of wooded land, so free wood (considering this for next year any way). We do not have a house phone, so we could not give up our...

Thanks for the advice, ladies! Here's a couple of questions 1) Where do you buy your wheat berries? 2) What kind of grinder do you use? I have considered this in the past, but DH was not really willing. I think now that he wants to be more self sufficient as much as I do, he would be...

There are some that would most definitely want to "mooch" off of us, but I know we plan to discourage it as much as possible.

I love knowing what is IN my food and not having to worry about all the additives and preservatives. I can tell a huge difference in the foods I make at home and then on the occasion when we do go out to eat. We all end up with "tummy trouble" and are more grouchy. I like wheat bread, but...

Hey there! I've been a member at BYC for a while, and I thought that I would come over here and check it out! I am a 32-YO wife and mother of 3 (DD13, DD10, & DS6). Last fall, we bought the home that my DH grew up in, and now have 23 acres (mostly wooded) with a barn, storage building, &...

We are a family of 5 (DH, me, DD13, DD10, and DS6) and average $400 or less per month. This includes HBA and cat food & litter. The feed for the chickens and rabbits is seperate. I used to able to spend about half that per month, but since prices started rising so drastically, I'm really...
