Imagine



Imagine that you go to your regular grocery store and most of the shelves are empty.
This could happen. It has happened. Will you, when it happens to you, be able to just smile and turn around and go back home, knowing that you have plenty of food in your home storage system to last you at least a few months? I hope so!

We have been advised by church leaders and government leaders to "be prepared" ! The advice concerning food is this: Have at least a 3 months' supply of foods you like and normally eat. After that, have at least a one year (or more) supply of foods to sustain life.

I say...let's work on one month's worth of food and accompanying menus. Then you would just triple it for 3 months worth. How to pay for it?
Cut expenses in other areas. What can keep you motivated to follow through? Imagining empty grocery store shelves. That is what motivates me.

Keep working on your 30 evening meals for your family..because when you are done with that, we will work on 30 breakfasts, and then 30 lunches...and, of course, 30 snacks.
