I high-lighted the propane gas and the pressure cooker. I think you should get more propane gas. And, the pressure cooker will let you use less gas to accomplish the same work.

There are always interesting comments at the end of the article. I encourage you to click over there and read them...participate if you like.

Add: leaving America,
I started international traveling in 1999, and moved out for good in 2004, living first in central Europe, and now in the Philippines.
I am retired, and I do know that leaving is not an easy option for younger FReepers with family, but there are a number of options even for you.
InternationalLiving.com is a pretty good site to be tuned into.
There are also a number of other expat living web sites that you can sign up for to get notices and emails of new articles and ideas.

I’m not moving anywhere that I have to leave the 2nd Ammendment behind. Move out of America, and you chunk your chunk your 2nd Ammendment rights.

What kind of snacks?

Fruit, cookies, pastry, Hors d’oeuvres, sandwiches, salty snacks?

Eggs are cheap. Deviled eggs, egg salad sandwiches. Cookies are cheap. Potatoes and pasta are very cheap. Make potato and pasta salad. If you can deep fry, try frying your own potato chips.

Well, that certainly depends on the country.
Since I have no interest in owning a gun, I can not
advise on various countries, but in the Philippines, I understand that the laws here are much more lax then in the USSA.
When I lived in the formerly Communist Slovakia, I knew hunters and other gun owners.
Do you really think that America is the only country where you can own a gun???

When America takes the final bow, your silly gun will, for any practical purpose of defending the country from the Communist, be worthless.
