🎙️ Friday at 10:30 am - Tune in to the Homestead Happenings Show for all things homesteading.

Tales from the Prepper Pantry

  • Taught a canning class this weekend and ended up just 2 quarts shy of our 60 quart goal
  • Added 7.5 quarts of tomato sauce, thanks rick
  • Added 5 pints of salsa from the Holler Tomatoes and peppers
  • Greatly reducing the stored commercial foods (like spaghetti sauce), but still keeping some on hand (why)
  • Green Curry Turkey this week

Weekly Shopping Report. 8/7/23

Our first trip on Saturday started with Dollar Tree as usual. The cooler with the Venom I like has been dead long enough that the drinks there are now room temperature. Oh well, I'm not interested in Coke or Pepsi products for caffeine. 

Next we went to Hobby Lobby so Sonia could pick up some art supplies. We had not been there in a while, but I didn't notice any significant changes. The parking lot was mostly full as usual, and Sonia found what she wanted.

We skipped Home Depot today (I figured I'd check online for the 2x4x8 price), so the next and last stop was Aldi. The pad I was keeping in the car to record prices is still in the car; we've got a rental due to the car dying. I looked at the same things, and don't recall any significant changes. I'll grab another pad for next week.

Back home, we realized we forgot the fruit. We also discovered that some ladder supports we had ordered were eunuchs (both missing their nuts), and Sonia also decided she wanted some more of a particular product she bought at Hobby Lobby. Hobby Lobby isn't open on Sunday, so we took our second trip today. Hobby Lobby was just as busy, and Sonia got what she wanted.

The second stop of the weekend at Home Depot also allowed me to check the price of a 2x4x8. It is back up to $3.25 after being just $2.98 last week. That's still lower than it has been; they're probably still adjusting.

Aldi had the cherries, bananas, and cantaloupe we had forgotten.

A gallon of untainted regular remains at $3.899, but I suspect it is wishful thinking to believe it will stay there.

Main topic of the Show: One Million Downloads

I never even gave a thought to having a million downloads when I first started Living Free in Tennessee, especially with only 14 downloads of my second episode. Yet we passed that number a little while ago. 

So the question came up, how do we celebrate?
