Prepper’s Long-Term Survival Guide by Jim Cobb (Book Review)

Prepper’s Long-Term Survival Guide by Jim Cobb (Book Review)

Time and again, the books and manuals tell readers exactly what to do until power is restored, until help arrives in some form, or until they find their way back to civilization after being lost. But what if the lights never come back on? What if there is no help coming…ever? This long-term scenario is […]

Introducing the HERC Oven: Powered by Tealight Candles

Introducing the HERC Oven: Powered by Tealight Candles

Just this week I learned about the HERC Oven, and it put my homemade Applebox Oven to shame! It may cost a little more than a free box, but it’s definitely a great way to go if you’re looking for a durable oven to cook with during emergencies. One of my biggest fans (ok, I added that part […]

The New World Series: Surviving an EMP Attack

The New World Series: Surviving an EMP Attack

Do you want to read a TRUE horror story? One that will literally slap you across the face and make you pee your pants? I just had the opportunity to read “The End” & “The Long Road” where the author, G. Michael Hopf, has us follow a family attempting to survive after America has been crippled […]

Are You STILL Using Pads & Tampons? Use the Menstrual Cup Instead!

Are You STILL Using Pads & Tampons? Use the Menstrual Cup Instead!

WARNING BOYS (& maybe some girls): This post may contain TMI and forever scar your brain (at least that is what my husband told me when I tried explaining how AWESOME these menstrual cups are :) If you choose to read on you do so at your own risk. My sister was mortified when I told her I was […]

What Stacy Harris Can Teach Us About Sustainable Living

What Stacy Harris Can Teach Us About Sustainable Living

I was so excited when my copy of Sustainable Living came in the mail for me to review! I expected it to be a typical cookbook with some recipes, but instead I was literally blown-away with the quality of it, the recipes, pictures on every page, and especially the life of Stacy Harris! I think the only complaint […]

The Prepper’s Cookbook: Does Your Pantry Have What It Takes to Survive?

The Prepper’s Cookbook: Does Your Pantry Have What It Takes to Survive?

When it comes to storing food, I’ve realized people seem to fall into one of these 3 categories:  THEY HAVE NOTHING – They don’t even bother getting food storage because they say it’s gross, and they would rather die (this used to be me, until I had kids). HAVE SOME, BUT WILL ONLY EAT IT IF STARVING– […]

Policy Changes for LDS Canneries Are in Effect :(

Policy Changes for LDS Canneries Are in Effect :(

Please Read THIS POST for the most updated information on the LDS Cannery! Yes, that’s a sad face :( I would make it bigger if I could! The LDS canneries aren’t closing, but they might as well be. They still have some benefits, but I’ve been depressed that buying food in bulk to fill my buckets is no […]

Using the LDS Cannery (aka Home Storage Centers)

Using the LDS Cannery (aka Home Storage Centers)

*** Read the UPDATE for the new Policy Changes that Have Gone into Effect!*** The Home Storage Centers (aka Canneries) are operated by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, but are available to the public as well. Some people have known about them for years, but are often intimidated to go. I finally built up enough courage and stepped […]

Mind Your Own Beeswax: Long-Burn Emergency Candles

Mind Your Own Beeswax: Long-Burn Emergency Candles

My mom used to tell me to “mind my own beeswax” and when it comes to planning for emergencies, you’re gonna wish you had paid attention to your own beeswax and gotten prepared! I was in Houston for Hurricane Ike and lived without power for 12 days, depleting just about every flashlight, battery and candle […]

Thrive Food and Organization Systems

Thrive Food and Organization Systems

SHELF RELIANCE & THRIVE FOODS I am loving these freeze-dried foods and rotation systems. Shelf Reliance has changed food storage forever. They have made meals I thought impossible, not only possible, but delicious. I feel like there is nothing I can’t make anymore whenever I want. Some of my favorite Thrive foods I listed below. […]

Bountiful Baskets

Bountiful Baskets

My dream is to eat super healthy, have my own garden, work-out everyday….. ok you get the point. The problem is I have 4 kids that can’t lift a spoon without bribing them with candy and a husband that forces me to watch Duck Dynasty every night, leaving me with only enough time to eat a big […]
