I knew I’d have to hide our silver and guns and ammo.....but now the long-term storage food items? I need to build me a underground safe or something...<<<
We used to call those a bomb shelter.
Yes, if it does get as bad as we fear, then hiding your food will be a requirement, for food will be worth more than gold.
I know that is difficult to think of, when one lives on American soil and wears the label of “I am an American”.
From the looks of it, our food supply will disappear.
Scott has been buying me a special Orange/Pineapple cookie that Walmart sells, they were cheap and good.
Then last month there were none.
This week they are back, a few cents cheaper, but it is a new package and only half as many, and they are smaller.
That means, as I figure that the price almost doubled on them.
Even the cookie is smaller and has less filling in it.
So it will go, until there is rationing of food and there are many who will never adjust to that, for it is not fun and it is not easy to make the food stamps last for 30 days.
FUDGE UPDATE
OK, you asked a couple of questions.... So, of course I had to try them first... ;^0
Made another batch of the fudge... Made many modifications... Didn’t want to open another big jar of honey, so I used some pure Sorghum Syrup... Couple of globs of peanut butter, a bag of chocolate chips, 1/3 bag of little marshmallows, and added a bunch of Rice Krispies and pecan pieces.
Now wife is mad at me (says I am trying to make her fat because they are so good) and daughter is mad at me because I won’t let her eat the whole thing... LOL Well, not really mad, just gently fussing...
Anyway, we now refer to it as ‘Deluxe Fudge’.
Hmmm, now I wonder if I add oats, craisins, more nuts, flax seed meal, and wheat germ, we could make a killer breakfast energy bar...
Maybe I’ll base a whole fudge book on Granny’s fudge recipe.
I can see it now... A glob of this a bunch of that, a bit of something else...
