Are You Prepared for an Emergency

Last night there were a series of earthquakes in Reno, Nevada.  The largest one was 4.4.
Are you prepared for an earthquake emergency?
I have family and friends that live from blocks to 2 miles away from the epicenters and felt everyone of them. If you are a prepper and have family/household members who aren't maybe these earthquakes are a good emergency preparedness conversation starter. Are your 72 hour kits up to date? How about how you store your food storage. I can a very large amount of our food storage and a few years ago we rebuilt our shelves so that they are one inch lower in the back than the front. This should help with the movement of glass jars. We hope. Where will you go if you have to leave? Are you prepared for family and friends to stay with you in an emergency?

 At the top of this blog you can click on links for 72 hour kits and even see mine.

Starting the 2016 New Year

2016 is starting with the plan that I had for 2015 and didn't follow through with.  This year I am preparing a handout for the women at church each month, so that will keep me on track.  This first post is the January 2016 post and a repeat from last year.

How to make Bread For Beginners.  This is the recipe I used when making bread.  I was from a women's magazine in the early 1980's.  It is a very sticky dough, but I used it until I was comfortable make bread with more flour.
