One year provision’s list

Maybe we can start a new threat that lists recipes that are simple to make. I am not much of a cook and wouldn't know what to do with cormeal and flour without some sort of recipe (and even then i'm not sure it would come out right--that's why i've stored lots of CANNED goods)

Anyone have any quick, simple recipes tha you can share ?? if you want, post them to a new topic "Recipes "

# is the symbol for pound or 16 oz.

I am relying on can foods and dried foods. I have bought rice and sugar

flour as a back up.  I also bought lots of cake mixes to add with the canned fruit and nuts. I find they bake ok even without eggs .  I am staging my buying I figure the longer the flu takes to get hear the better I will live, so food first then dry goods and elctronics then extras

I have several lists Food, electronics, paper products, last minute extras

  i bought rice and canned meat and dried nuts and beans than canned fruit then cake mixes, sugar, flour and pastas and sauses, I then will buy seeds.  I debatted the garden idea for a while but I think the looters will die off quickly and you will need to replenish your food source. 

I think starvation will kill out people quickly  I figure anyone left will  all have gardens and lots of seeds.  Even if you live in a apartment I think you should have seeds. You may stay at friends and your seeds will be valuable.and I feel that those are left will gladly let you plant a garden or you may find  a open field to garden

Being prepared for something is not about survival - thats just life.  A survival situation is being unprepared for the unexpected.  When that happens . . . think, everyone has McGiver moments (dates me and I can't  spell).

 

I learned a lesson my first week as an EMT in the field.  Driving back from the hospital, in the middle of the night, my partner (who was driving)  braked sharply, and yelled. "We're being shot at. What's our 10-20?!"  (location)

Being new at this sort of thing, I said, "Huh?"

He looked at me gravely. He said "You never know when the unexpected will happen. You always need to know where you are, and what's going on around you. Fail to pay attention, and you can get you and me killed. If you had to radio for help, call for backup, you'd better damn well know where you are at all times."

Situational awareness. Paying attention.  Knowing the threats around you.  It can save your life.

He pulled that drill on me several more times. After that night, you can bet I always knew where we were.

I don't want to have to reformat this, but here is a basic one year food requirements for men and women:  1 Year Food Storage Requirements

  you can use food grade Diatomaceous earth.  It will keep all of your basic staples for a very long time.  Flour, meal,rice beans and so on.  I didn't put it in my sugar.  Look on the internet under it's name.  Here is the phone number for the company I used.  You could call and ask them questions.  I still have food from my y2k prep and not one bug. 505-873-3061

It might be a good idea to get any overdue dental
work done in the near future. Best to get that out of the way.
