Should I Store Food?

A hundred years, even as recently as fifty years, ago, families were storing food to last them through the winter. For centuries, housewives put up food that they grew in gardens that they planted, tended, and harvested. They would raise animals and animal feed to harvest for meat. They milked cows or goats for milk to use to make cottage cheese, sour cream, and various types of cheeses. For…

Here are my garden residents that are named after Queen's Thief characters! The tall one is Irene, followed by Sophos in the middle, and lastly Eugenides II on the right.

I love them very much <3

I'm so sad my Apricot Meilove rose died, it was such a stunner!

I decided to take a serious social media break after the tiktok ban. I was devastated by the ban, then equally devastated that it became trumptok upon return.

I deleted it off my phone. I do have rednote, but it's not the same. I deactivated facebook and instagram. I am done.

I refuse to be sucked into an anxious angry hole for the next four years, like I was for his first four. I am terrified of the future now, so I have to take a break.

Instead of spending my time scrolling, I am focusing on learning new things, spending time with family and friends, experiencing life.

Here is what I've done so far!

I got a breadmaker for xmas. I am having the most fun with this thing! I have made four loaves so far, three white bread and one cinnamon raisin.

I joined Costco for the savings of bulk buying, and I have a new appreciation for cooking at home.

I am taking it back to basics, depression era shit. Baking bread, making hearty beef and bean soups, Rice and beans based dishes aplenty!

I look forward to dusting off my camera and going out into nature. I am excited to finally finish the half dozen craft projects I have started. I am itching to get my seeds planted indoors, in preparation for the spring.

We will survive a trump presidency. We just have to look inward. Stick together. We got this!

Limited Space Back Yard

Whether you live in an old neighborhood that has become crowded with people dividing their lots to put in more homes or a newly constructed neighborhood built with cookie cutter homes on postage stamp lots, you can still put in a garden within that limited space.

You could even go with a vertical garden if the yard is really, really small.

Oswald? Bugs? Never heard of 'em, sorry.

Here's my other character, Bailey! :D

She was introduced circa 1942 to help promote victory gardens in a way that would be easy to understand for children! She's a spitfire carrot farmer who loves to go on wacky adventures with the big three! However, Bendy does tend to get on her nerves...if there's one thing she hates more than Lotsabucks, it's laziness.

We Were All Preppers

When I saw the above photograph and the quote that came with it, I knew that I had to write about this. I have followed the prepping ideology for many years and I often see how commercialized the movement has become. podcasts, videos, blogs, and books all seem to try to scare us into believing that SHTF could happen at any moment and that we need to hurry and purchase what they have to sell…

Before you run those dandelions over with the lawn mower or douse them with weed killer, check this video out. Dandelions have various benefits, edible leaves rich in vitamins, diuretic properties, potential antioxidant effects, and use in herbal medicine. via @bodylovebytal

Best mindset to have while playing Eden's Garden: Just predict that everyone will die. Literally everyone. Don't get your hopes up on anyone surviving. The easiest way to avoid disappointment and heartbreak is to keep your expectations so low that there can only be wins 👍

One thing about Adam and Eve is that after eating the apple, not only they were forever cast out from the Garden of Eden but the rest of humanity was as well. Eva executed the first murder-- she bit the apple and was punished for that act of crime. Does that mean that along with her, everyone else is now barred from paradise? How will that part of the bible play a part in the game, if it will at all?
