Hubs and I would survive. I'm the prepper; he's not. But he's very handy. As long as I have propane tanks, I can cook. Heck. I've got an 80 gal propane tank outside that feeds my furnace heat pump. I would have to can up everything in my freezer tho, unless we dedicated the Honda gennie to it for a while.

We actually have a new crosscut saw we got JIC. I practiced with the scythe last fall, but will get more use this year. Works well in some of the tight spots.

I ordered one of these last week and it came today. I had one 13 years ago until my sone used it, it didnt live
I dont order electric appliances.

Mine is almost like that one. . Of course, a stove top percolator, too. Bookoos of stainless and cast iron pots, skillets, a tea kettle, etc. And some various coolers. Short term I could use, can up most freezer food.....but, on long term scale, options are others forms of preservation which will need to be in use.

Look at those poor Ukrainians! Talk about SHTF !!

Well I like to think,, ok so if you didn’t have a battery / solar/ or fuel for a generator — how would you_________________?
Cut wood
Cut a field
Store food for winter
Cook
Clean
Etc………
I look for non electric solutions
A small solar charger for rechargeable batteries, a hand crank emergency radio,
And the list goes on,
I have been trying to move away from relying on the freezer, I have been Not buying foods that require refrigeration,

I think this is good, for us anyway, not everyone can.

I learned a lot for our Amish friends. Their refrigerator was a deep hole, with racks on a rope and pulley system.

Tony wants to chime in . Shhhhh no bark

Good Morning ALL! Happy BLESSED Sunday!!! I so wish I could turn off my internal alarm clock so I could sleep in a little longer but I guess getting up between 5-5:45 on days FH doesn't have to work is sleeping in seeing how my normal time of getting up is between 3-3:30.
@Grandmas Porch you have a beautiful dog there!! He looks like he is quite the big boy. I notice he has tan points by chance is he a rottweiler?
