And don't forget to purchase several dozens of "Tattler Lids and rings"
You know, the reusable lids and rings that can be used dozens of times, especially when no other lids can be found.
Found at :

or even in smaller quantities on Amazon.com
I noticed our tomatoes and squash are now both flowering.
Our potatoes did, a couple of weeks ago. They’ve been curing....time to harvest.
Time to fire up the pressure canner.
Did that, again, a couple of weeks ago.
Need to, again, for some chuck roasts that are reaching their time in the freezer....and, make room for other goodies.
Well, at least that shopper has his mask on and is shopping for HIGH PRICED, LOW STOCK groceries, correctly.
🙃
Got them already.
I am also set with regular lids for the time being. I’ve been seeing them on Wal-Marts shelves and picking up a couple boxes every once in a while.
They are getting pretty expensive, though, along with canning jars.
New boxes of Ball jars, pint, run about $13 - $14 per box instead of $9.
A FReeper article, earlier today, said the Vermonters were teaching school kids to eat insects.
"The Great RESET" has already started in Socialist Vermont; they try this crap in New Hampshire and they'd get shot !
New Hampshire State motto :" Live Free,..or die ! "
Remember, it’s not just farmers, it’s fishermen too. If you see Forrest Gump in your neck of the woods ask if this shrimp trawler is able to get out much.
“Instead of only the strong survive, we may be going toward only the wealthy survive ?”
How do the wealthy survive when hungry people know where they live? And don’t bother telling me that they have armed guards. Khaddahfi, with an estimated wealth of $200 billion, had his elite praetorian guard, 5,000 deep state goons and a southern mercenary army.
Provincial militias found him hiding in a sewer pipe, and they killed him.
This bull that the rich elites will survive is wishful thinking pushed by the idiot deep state.
I just cube up the meat and sear it and then pressure can the chunks in broth.
I save every scrap of beef and beef bones I can to make broth with, but I often end up buying some broth anyways, much as I don’t like to.
Soups and stews are good meals for most of the year round.
I also like to cook down the turkey carcass after Thanksgiving and Christmas meals and pressure can that for fresh turkey soup for a change once in a while.
Mr. mm is not a huge soup eater, although I would be if I could. However, food is food and I figure when he gets hungry enough, he won’t complain about what it is.
“Ban e85, and allow oil companies to operate and russia is a non issue”
Nonsense.
It’s a global commodity. The same grade costs the same in Houston as it does in Brussels. Or Pretoria.
Well, you’re in TX.
Up here, the potatoes are just taking off.
My onions are doing well, though and my garlic is fantastic. I hope the bulbs do as well as the tops are doing right now.
I put in butternut squash this past week too. It’s a good, long term storage veggie and very good for you.
You are looking at rationing schemes for gasoline and food, and a potential for new lockdowns, forced work from home from non essential persons, online schooling, and travel restrictions, this time to contain inflation.
Also if we have a major Gulf Hurricane, expect the Colonial Pipeline all over again.
I don’t even sear....just raw pack.
Speaking of not eating soups....I just had to pitch some old soups (that have been in the freezer for too long). Makes me mad, but....I let one batch thaw...and, did not like the look, or smell. :(
Cleaning and organizing the freezer, in the next week.
Some of which will be pressure canned.
So....they're going to cut off natural gas? How do you read this?
No. This is a result of the Dummycrats sucking up to the environmentalist wackos.
Forrest Gump, that was filmed, maybe, ten miles from my house in Bayou La Batre
New Orleans is a two hour drive away but here is what Katrina did to the shrimp fleet in Bayou La Batre.(GumpShrimp)
The whole region was without electricity and when FEMA showed up on my street handing out MRE's, we invited them to have some spaghetti, w/meat sauce, wine, garlic bread and green salad. My prepping paid off, ha,ha.
Years ago when Ted Turner was asked why he had a 10,000 acre estate/compound down in deep Patagonia, He said, "that's where I'll go when the revolution begins."
Well, at least here in Florida, there are plenty of palmetto bugs for Scooby Snacks . . .
“No. This is a result of the Dummycrats sucking up to the environmentalist wackos.”
Your wishing, and ignorant assertion does not make it so.
Oil is well over $100bbl in every market worldwide. This is the result of taking 30% of the world’s oil export out of western markets. And the fear of additional reduction.
Even though the US is the world’s largest producer, the price in Houston and Chicago is the same as every other market in the world. (Transport is a separate surcharge)
The US does not need Russian oil, everyone else does. That’s what drives these crazy price increases.
