  1. http://shop.goldenmalted.com/?gclid=CM_T04zpj6kCFQ4g2godvDshow we had these at a very expensive hotel on vacation a few years ago--I bugged them until I found out what brand they were--I know you are probably not looking for a mix--but these are SOOOOOO worth it!!! you will not be sorry!!!!
  2. 12 more fruit rollups and several trays of dried trail mix stuff--going to the store tomorrow to get papaya and mango and pineapple for the dehydrator next
  3. 12 fruit roll-ups made and away--dehydrator is full again!!!
  4. sounds like you have it all down!!! while, I prefer the washing machine and dryer, dishwasher, and my wonderful steam mop--i feel the same way, as i look around outside and see (in my head) where all the plants and trees are going to provide us with almost all our food for a year--hopefully we will be there by next summer--still have more cleanup to do--in the meantime--the garden is almost ready, the fruit trees are blooming, and i planted a ton of blue berries, black berries, raspberries, and grapes--the strawberry bed is in, the asparagus is in, potatoes and onion and garlic all look great!!!
  5. i just finished turning a whole deer into a few bags of jerky--glad that is over for the year
  6. yesterday, I changed the plan on my tv--I went from a bill of $173 a month to $78 a month I won't miss all those movie channels--and dh is not here to miss them I am so proud of me, I usually just leave things the way they are now, I am researching turning off my home phone...
  7. that is so sweet dora--we are fine--i live out here in wheeler county--the fires didn't get any of the homes out here--i feel so bad for those poor dogs--do you guys need anything--you got it a lot worse than we did

  8. Deerslayer, I live in Amarillo and go to church in Canyon. So glad you are ok. We passed a lot of people on their way to Cowboy Church. Do you need anything?

  9. take one that is at least 70% wool and wash it on hot and dry it on hot and it will be felted and very small!!!!
  10. several of the ones i have been using had holes--so i got them for a dime each!! it works really well!!
  11. http://studio5.ksl.com/?sid=4456414&nid=61 this site has the pattern and a video you don't have to serge the seams--if you felt the sweater it won't ravel next will be boot liners and fingerless gloves http://www.baabaazuzu.com/
  12. this is what i have been up to this week... 1. go to goodwill and get a ton of wool and alpaca sweaters 2. take them home and shrink them 3. sew up some niffy mittens with a polar fleece lining 4. make a whole bunch and put them away for gift giving these are sold in boutiques for $50 a pair--I can make around 20 pair for $10
  13. well, so far this week... 26 pints of pinto beans 20 pints of red beans 20 points of navy beans 20 pints of lima beans 35 pints of black eyed peas 15 pints of black beans 15 pints of great northern beans i think i am going a little crazy right now i still have about 100 pounds of beans to go--i figure--why not?? i have the time and the jars--and it will keep them from getting old
  14. sorry--just saw the question--i have ordered morning moo from several different companies (all in utah) --we also enjoy the chocolate and the strawberry flavored one--i am lactose intolerant so i use it for me and for cooking--but the kids started drinking it and never noticed the difference-- i have ordered it in #10 cans and also in 5 gallon buckets sealed for long term storage--i haven't ordered any in awhile (because i had quite a bit to use up) so i don't know who has it the cheapest these days... do a google search and you will see several companies who sell it
  15. we use morning moo--i started out putting it in the store bought milk container and no one could tell the difference once it is cold--it is MUCH cheaper than liquid milk
  16. I finally gave up on mine and threw them all away--I had a complete set--about 30 pieces in all and they were always rusty and everything stuck to them--I absolutely hated them I know that as a good survivalist, I have failed but I had just had it--I am swearing I will not try it again--give me some good nonstick skillets from now on. I had tried seasoning them myself and buying preseasoned ones--nothing worked. I finally had to admit I am a complete failure as a cast iron user
  17. add me to the list!!! i also want to know if this works--sounds a lot better than anything else i have tried!!! poison is out because of the pets--i hate traps--esp having to empty them--i sure hope peppermint works!!!
  18. I have so many of these things--and love them!!! love my breadmaker love my rice maker love my doggie grass pee thing I guess some of the ones that seem pretty useless to me is the one that peels eggs--and the pan that cuts the brownies all into exact same size pieces (I ALWAYS let my kids cut them--one to cut, one gets to pick first--they ALWAYS came out really even The one I never understood was a treadmill--if you want to walk--go walk
