Simple preparedness for everyday life
We all have emergencies from time to time. These may be small emergencies like having a pipe break in your house or having an unexpected bill or they may be big emergencies like a flood or an earthquake. Either way, we need to be prepared. We can’t prepare for every emergency out there but there […]
The best thing you can do to increase your chances of surviving an emergency situation is to get as much warning as you can. Did you know that your county can actually call you and let you know if there is an emergency, like a fire or flood, in your area? It’s called a reverse […]
Canned tunafish is a great thing to have in your food storage. I always stock up when the price drops and I can frequently find it for $0.50 – $0.75 a can. It’s a great source of protein and most cans have a shelf life of up to 3 years. When I was in college, […]

I get asked all the time what the differences are between freeze dried and dehydrated foods. Dehydrated foods are great for food storage, however, they have some major drawbacks. I primarily store (and use on a regular basis) freeze dried foods because their taste, texture, and nutrition is so close to fresh. The process of […]
Food storage isn’t just about emergency preparedness, although that certainly is an important part of it. My food storage saves me time and money because I always have everything I need to make a meal from scratch. With all the awful additives in most foods on the grocery store shelves, I love having an option […]
My family has really made a conscious effort to make the switch to organic and GMO free foods.
