I still did not find anything be me either. There was one reference to Mrs Survival but it did not show any posts by me. Oh well.....

I am not Darlene but I just typed my name in goggle to check it out and none of my posts came up (in 13 pages anyway). Maybe it was because Evergreen is a more common name.

Ha, Ha, yes we do talk like that, no we are not really in the 21 century like the rest of the country in lots of ways ( we like it that way too)

I grew up in Mi- it was pop - moved to Ft. Lauderdale- it was Soda -around here (Deep South)- it is Coke- no matter what you want- I try not to drink Cokes anymore though -Water is my choice bottled drink.

Cream of Chicken Soup

 

This sause mix can be substituted for creamed, condensed soups (mushroom, chicken, ect.)

 

3 cups

 

2 cups nonfat dry milk

3/4 cup cornstarch

1/4 instant chicken bouillon

2 Tablespoons dried onion flakes (or chopped)

1/2 teaspoon ground pepper

 

Pour the ingredients in a quart jar. Put on lid and shake to mix.

 

To substitute for 1 can of soup - combine 1/3 cup mix with 1 cup of water, heat until thickened.

 

For variety add mushrooms, onions, celery, or bits of meat. To make an herb sauce add 1 teaspoon of ground dry thyme & 1 teaspoon ground dry basil to dry quart jar.

 

I went with out a dryer for almost a year- so i love just tossing all those socks in the dryer... BUT I love more the lower elecrtic bill from hanging cloths out -so I still do it!

 

 

They dry really fast when the wind is blowing hard!

Jo, you really made my day -And it has been a loooooong one!!! Thank You so much!!!! (((((Jo)))))

 

 

I will hug.... (((((((Wendy)))))))

 

 

OH, WOW, How Awesome!! Thank you so much! What a great way to wake up!!!

 

Now I have to find somebody to hug....

This sound like so much fun and I would love to try-

 

but I have a question, Have any of you ever tried to figure out an aproximate cost per bar? Does it save any money to make your own soap -or is it just for the joy of doing?

I highly recommend that you read this from a homeschool graduate if you are interested in homeschooling.

I do belong to Homeschool Legal Defense BTW- because I believe in what they do -But my state is super easy to homeschool in -all you have to do is turn in attendance -and be under a church cover group -and BTW I love my HS groups attendance policy read it if you want -it is good
