Emergency Essentials has started a blog!  It is full of fabulous information and recipe ideas.  Check it out!

For those of you (like me) who may have been skeptical about the canned seeds, check this out!

The link for this week is Food Storage Made Easy.

This is one of my FAVORITE sites.   It is a lot of fun to explore.  They have TONS of ideas and resources.

Need help getting started?  You can find it here.

Need recipes and recipe books?  They have that too.

Want to learn how to grind wheat?

Help, tools, product info.... the list goes on.

One of the greatest tools that they offer is the checklist program.

Simply sign up for their e-mail list, and they start sending you checklists.  The idea is that at the end of 1 YEAR, you will have compiled your 72 hour kits, water storage, 3 month supply of regular food, and your entire one year long term supply, AND essential non-food items.  WOW!  Wouldn't that be a great blessing?

They have several sister sites.  Everyday Food Storage will teach you how to actually COOK with your food storage, and Food Storage Shopper that helps find the best deals and spend your money wisely.  

Check them out, I know you'll find them useful.

So.....every Thursday I'll be posting a great link for preparedness websites and blogs.  There are a ton out there, and lots of great information, if you know where to find it.  We will also have these links on the blog permanently by posting them on the sidebar under Link Ups.

This week I am highlighting iPrepared  who just did a great feature on storing food in buckets.  They have information on the best storage options for buckets as well as sealing your own with dry ice!  Check it out!

Also, their post for today is on Labeling your food storage.  This can be a pain, but they have some good suggestions.

Another super cool thing about iPrepared is that they have ongoing goals posted on the sidebar of their blog.  If you are at all confused about where to start with your storage (like me) then this can be an invaluable help.  Some others that have ongoing goals are Safely Gathered In and Food Storage Made Easy.  

ENJOY!
