My boys love pumpkin seeds! Its the main reason we carve pumpkins! I know they love to get dirty and make a mess and all that stuff too! We go to the local gocery store the day of halloween and make a deal with them to buy all the left over pumpkins the next day. I store them in my cellar...

I know I have been very busy these last few weeks. I have been at work every day it seems, DH's business is keeping us all running, butchering of chickens had to happen, wood has to be split, weatherization has to be done, the list goes on and on! However, when I had a moment I would pop...

Hello Everyone! Its has been awhile since I have been able to jump on and stay for awhile. I have been able to peek but not contribute. Finally this morning I have sat down with a coffee cup in my hand and I find this great subject!! We spent all of yesterday splitting wood. Mostly ash...

Pioneergirl - would you consider shipping some to me if I would pay the cost? I really like the bag and showed the pic to a couple of friends and they like them too. Let me know if you are interested in growing your new business!!!!

What a great thread. I think I have pretty good skills to survive. I can hunt most animal and fish. I can skin/clean what I have caught as well as cook it. I can garden and grow many foods as well as herbs and that kind of thing. I am a Master Gardener and DH and I own a landscaping...

I was going to say try using fishing line but patandchickens already had. My Grandmother used to use it all the time to repair overalls and other really thick materials. It worked on her machine. I love the bag! Think maybe you could sell the bags you make somewhere? The farmers market or...

I love my Crock pot! I actually have 2 large ones and a smaller one. I use the large ones at leat once or twice a week. They are very convenient and use alot less energy that the oven! One of my favorite easy and few ingredient recipes... Biscuit bites Make dough and cut into biscuits as...

Wow Keljonma! What a great find!! Why do things like that never happen to me?? What are you going to do with them? Will you make jelly or do you know of some other good way to keep them?

I try to always use wide mouth. I find them easier to pack and easier to clean. However, I do have regular mouth as well. They are mostly used for things like tomato juice and salsa and things that are not packed. It seems I always have both kinds of lids and rings around because I use alot...

I think a new section for this would be great! :D Please! Many people are always lookin for deals and its good to share them when you find them!! I know I would check in often!!

This is sooo funny. I shared Talk like a Pirate day with the kids in my classroom at school. That was crazy!! You should have heard them. I was well entertained. Although by the end of a Friday on Talk like a Pirate Day...I was ready to go home!! They drove me NUTS!!

I have had a box of Farina in my cupboard for a very long time. No one in my family will eat it. What can I do with it. Can I add it to some other recipeor something? I hate to throw anything that can be used. What should I do with it?? If nothing else could I feed it to my chickens??

Some will try to mooch, but most won't. Sad as it may be my side of the family, parents, brothers and sisters, all live at least 1/2 hour drive from here. None of them are like me. No one is self sufficient in the least. They think I am a little crazy! However, I would still take all of...

Well, I now have at least a three week supply (probably a little more) of all feed in the garage workshop. Dh is not so happy about it cause I put the feed into large metal trash cans and between the chicken feed, scratch, and dog food there are 6 containers. He said next summer we will add...

I have this recipe and it is great! We just call them Zucchini Cookies but it is exactly the same. My boys love them. Dh is not as happy with them but he does not like the raisins and coconut. Crazy guy!!

I feel as if alot of coupons are a waste of time, but I usually cut them out and save them anyway. I check the weekly specials and if an item that is on sale has a coupon and that makes it as cheap or hopefully cheaper than what I normally buy, I will buy that item. I have noticed that since...

I am lucky enough to have grown up in a big family where cooking (and eating:P) is a family affair. My father is one of 14 children and out of those children he has the smallest family with 6 kids. :lol: For holiday baking all of the Aunts, and Cousins as well as my Grandmother, all get...
