What happens when you're sick and at home? You watch a lot of TV. I have been watching Doomsday Preppers. For those who are not familiar with the show it's about people who think the world is going to end in one way or another. Because the world is going to end, they are getting ready for it by prepping. This means having food, guns, ammo, animals, places to go, and they have some elaborate plans.
I thought it was funny at first. Some of these people are really out there, like the father that keeps his children umbilical cords preserved with herbs and tree bark so he can give them to them once they have passed their "right of passage" (slow blink). However, (looking around paranoid like) I find myself slowing thinking "Well, it wouldn't be a bad idea to have some food in the house just to be safe".
Now in my defense and before you start calling me nuts, I don't think the world is going to end but I do think that I should do something because I live in a hurricane zone. I'm not talking about setting up a fort but maybe having a few weeks of food in the event that we have a hurricane.
MAYBE I looked at how to preserve 50 lbs of rice (maybe) and maybe I also looked at freezed dried food and MREs...but I'd never do that. Maybe I also thought about how to keep my Paleo diet if it were the end of the world.
Maybe

being in a hurricane zone a backpack & duffle is a good idea mres and extra canned goods are always musthave...
ReplyDeletecheck out CABELAS online they have mre-like product & freezedried hiking food....also REI i gt doggie saddlebags so my boxer could carry her own sopplies and bowl...
`as for the preppers i tink my favori is the fat ex-truck driver on disability...social secrty sees all the wrk he's doin' and they'll enroll his butt in jenny craig and put him back to work....
being aware and prepared is always a good idea, but the guy with spiderholes dotting the land scape is certifiable...too many of them start an hystaria inciting even less stable folks...like that man this ast week in alabama...
