2013 Goals

Today I posted on the "Food Storage Made Easy" Facebook page my food storage goals for 2013. (Keeping my eyes, fingers and toes crossed that I win the sun oven!) Here they are~ 1.Purchase wheat grinder and begin baking with NATURAL yeast. 2.Fill my pantry with food for 2 weeks. Practice not going to the store for 2 weeks. 3.Create a recipe collection that utilizes food storage items. 4.Can more beans and meat. Try canning butter. 5.Create a family blog for extended family members to share ideas and success in food storage and emergency preparation. 6.Put together a family emergency file in a manilla envelope that contains important documents to keep in our 72 hour kits. Very excited about 2013 and the blessings and opportunities that come along with preparedness. We all know success comes from writing down and sharing goals. What are your goals for 2013?

One Woman, Two Hands, Two Feet, One Brain

An enormous meadow in the San Bernardino Mountains is filled with beautiful daffodils. Every spring people come from all over the country to view the breathtaking site. In the middle of these daffodils is a modest A-frame home with a sign out front that says, "Answers to the Questions I Know You Are Asking: 50,000 bulbs, one at a time, by one woman, two hands, two feet, and one brain. Began 1958." The magnificent field of flowers didn't happne overnight, and it wasn't created by an army of gardners. It was created one bulb at a time by one woman. Likewise, any of us can do almost anything, as long as we approach it one step at a time. As the Lord Himself declared, "And out of small things proceedeth that which is great."
