We have a fireplace, so heating isn't really an issue. Life will go on pretty much as always around here, just with the added motor noise in the background...no need for shambling around like a zombie looking for a working outlet to charge a phone with, or scurrying from one store to another in a furtive quest for Oreos, Pop-Tarts, and Gatorade.<br /><br />Apocalypse--BRING IT!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4368260069308594150.post-55003166393749931332012-11-02T08:25:11.654-04:002012-11-02T08:25:11.654-04:00Nice to hear from you, Miss K!!

I hope that you continue to see terrific progress for your little one as you press on.AOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03063561228813908439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4368260069308594150.post-26334036178223259732012-11-02T08:22:17.422-04:002012-11-02T08:22:17.422-04:00Glad you like it.

I am a single mother of one five year old who has severe ulcerative colitis. I have done my research and read all the books for the SCD, Paleo, and GAPS diet among others. My point is, that it's nice to hear from someone who sounds human and is putting in all the same kinds of efforts that I am doing for my child's health (and my own). It's a lot of work as a single mom and often feels very lonely...since not many people around me understand why I'm doing what I'm doing with our diet. Thank you for all your advice...it is REALLY helpful! And comforting :)<br />God bless you and your entire family!<br />Love, <br />Miss K and Shyloh Star Sassy PantsMiss K and Sassy Pantshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05715048182410913483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4368260069308594150.post-60694421022227627272012-11-01T22:42:23.119-04:002012-11-01T22:42:23.119-04:00I was just thinking about doing this!

I have lost count of how many jars of lard, tallow, chicken stock, bone broth, tomato sauce, green beans, pickles (cucumbers, beets and watermelon rinds), applesauce, rhubarb chutney and apple butter are in my basement. Oh, we also canned an entire turkey a few weeks ago, so there are about a dozen jars of those down there too. I also have three large boxes of winter squash stashed down there, too - they'll keep until February, when any that are left will be roasted and canned, as well.<br /><br />We wont talk about our two refrigerator/freezers and the 24 cubic-foot freezer in the garage that are stuffed with grass-fed beef, pastured pork and poultry, locally caught fish and locally grown fruits and vegetables. We're buying a generator in the next couple of weeks.<br /><br />We don't really do this because we fear inclement weather, but just so we can eat locally and sustainably as possible. I do know people who would like to introduce us to a nice psychotherapist, though.Jan's Sushi Barhttp://www.janssushibar.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4368260069308594150.post-70289404800825632292012-11-01T21:21:56.241-04:002012-11-01T21:21:56.241-04:00Thank you for putting this list together.

I joked that I would be the one person in the store stocking up on meat and produce while everyone else goes for the bread and junk. This list will be really helpful in the future.
