Have you ever dabbled with the freeze drying method of preserving food and if so, what do you think about it. I have been considering it because in a lot of natural disasters potable water isn't necessarily available and with the freeze-dried food whether beans or fruit or veggies they can be eaten as is.
Thank you so much for going the extra mile .I really appreciate the extras Marys ,your really a gift to those of us who are starting from "scratch" lol .take care
She will save many from starving in the days to come...if they take heed of what she teaches. Whole foods from non genetically modified lines will go far in health as well. She is a treasure.
Love Mary. Always envision her gentile nature while SHTF and she’s equipping the 50cal mowing down hoarded of marauders while smiling and saying “hi sweet friends!”
I grind those little canned hams and make sandwiches spread with it. (Add mayonnaise and little sweet relish a dab of mustard) and I also use leftover mashed potatoes ,an egg a tiny bit of flour to help hold the patty together mixed in the ground ham to make ham patties...both are very good at stretching the food to feed more for less.
I absolutely love your advice and guidance. You are like a dear friend, who imparts skills we should have learned from our elders. As an adult, I had to teach myself skills I hadn’t learned, but then took a few years off to go to school once my homeschooled children were adults, rather than becoming skilled as a homemaker. I loved learning in college, but my eyes and mind have been opened to all the many things I could have learned without spending so much money. My daughters bought me your book and I am working on becoming a homemaker at 65 years old. Thank you and God bless.
Another idea is learning to can. I have canned chicken, ground beef and sausage. The chicken is raw pack but the ground beef and sausage are hot pack. So much cheaper than store canned.
Ms Mary... You are OFFICIALLY my internet grandmother. I could go on listening to you talk for 12 more hours. Wish I could meet you in person, you are more of a blessing than you know!!
Your story about the baked beans is just precious. My Dad is 88 he too was a child during the depression and talks about that pop of baked beans was the meal compared to now being a side dish. They even ate beans with eggs for breakfast and now it's our favorite
I live in a four-season climate in the country in Canada. I started buying pantry items in August to have all the extras I need by the end of October so I am not hard-pressed to get out in our full winter months. I keep a healthy supply of herbal teas. I also bought powdered whole milk so I can make a half and half blend of the powdered and the liquid milk,.I keep a good supply of tuna and salmon tins on hand--so versatile amd shelf stable. 🥰🎶❤️🇨🇦
We have a very small property, (less than 1/4 acre)which we make the very best of. As well as veg, we grow a lot of fruit on it. The land was pretty cheap because it had a high sand content, and was bare of vegetation, (except for weeds!). For the first few years I got leaves and compost from neighbors and grocery stores. - Blueberries are the easiest of all the fruits to harvest; just pick 'em and freeze 'em - they love acidic soil, so use your coffee grounds to fertilize. I get free coffee grounds from coffee shops on my town trips. If you don't have a pick up truck, line a good, heavy box to throw their bagged grinds in. - Strawberries are pretty easy to harvest & freeze. For easy harvest, I have a sturdy old stool I drag along, (I'm in my 70s). -Fruit trees are all grafted onto DWARF root stock. Those smaller trees produce an amazing amount of fruit, but you can actually access all of it without climbing up on an extension ladder to harvest or prune. I got my trees for only $10.00 each because it was late in the season, and the trees were stressed, so I had to watch them very carefully for pests, and I lovingly babied them for the first two years, and now they're as healthy as if they had always been robust. I had a choice to get food or non-food producing plants and our lot is now healthy, pretty. Since we concentrate the compost around the plants we made paths between and around them - no lawn mower!
In lieu of a lot of bottled water, I have a good quality (Katadyne) water purifier and also water purification tablets. You need a water collection vessel and clean, BPA-free containers for storage.
Hi Mary, I have been listening to you for months, and some of your vlogs multiple times. I have spent the past 4-5 months building a Prepper Pantry. I have put inventory onto my iPad, but now thinking that I want to transfer to a binder using your prepared forms. I need to find your forms and print off a set. There are 6 people, 3 generations,in our home right now and I am thinking a binder accessible to everyone might be helpful. I watch multiple preppers/homesteaders. We have a large home, on 1/3 acre in the Rocky Mountains. We have had a small kitchen garden the past 3 years, and have expanded each year….and have already begun things inside even though we are still in full-blown Winter here: but Spring is trying to move in…we get snow here until May. So, thank you for your wonderful teaching. You are easy to listen to, and very practical. We are fresh/frozen food people and have lots of freezer space, but not enough. Definitely Traditional food lovers. I have learned to make bone broth and desperately working at less food waste. Hard with so many people, teens to seniors. Our son-in-law and daughter are very good at taking left-overs for lunches which is good. I have commercially canned foods in the prepper pantry in our storage room in our basement, as well as rice, oats, flours, chocolate chips, dried fruits and commercially canned fruits, etc. I have wonderful premade soup mixes. I have stocks and both canned and powdered, etc. Lots of herbs and spices in kitchen and extras in the prepper pantry. Now, I am building up the 30 year freeze dried kinds of foods. All three forms will keeps us making the same favorite meals we enjoy…just from fresh/frozen, to commercially canned (including canned chicken, corned beef, tuna, a little beef (never used it before but at least something should fresh beef not be available, or affordable). I also have low salt Spam, and canned ham. I do not have any freeze dried meats as they are very expensive and truly hoping that we will not need that. We are not hunters, but we could be. We have lots of friends who are, so we have agreed to barter should it come to that: I can make breads, and we are expanding our kitchen garden to potatoes (second year and have them started inside right now). Hoping to build a green house soon. So, if we can have room for growing “salad foods” and plenty of herbs year around will be awesome. And, will gladly share/barter. Anyway….thank you as you have helped me the most. It is a lot of work but thankful that I am big into cooking and gardening. Getting rid of “stuff” to make room for food. Praying it will not be needed. And, if not, then we will simply incorporate the commercially canned foods into our daily life. I do believe we will leave the 30-year kinds of foods where they are…..just in case needed. My husband and I will not life that much longer: 82 and 77, but our kids and grands will. So, we will leave them with some “insurance” for the future if we are blessed to not need them in our life time. So, off to find and print your lovely forms and set up a binder all can see and use.
I definitely believe that was two-and-a-half hours well spent! A lot of it was things I knew but still of review is always good and I definitely like the worksheets and will be incorporating them. I've been following you for quite a few years and as time goes on I find that I respect you and the things you're teaching more and more. Thank you again!
I love to put her videos on as I work around the house, or at night I listen to her and learn as a quiet my mind. Thank you so much for your sweet nature and I love your cookbook. I just got it in the mail.
Bone Broth is SUPER NUTRITIOUS!!! We also had massive vegetable gardens and a fruit orchard which we harvested as a family each fall to put in our root cellar and for pickling and preserving. 🥰🎶❤️🇨🇦
My husband is a hunter and I used to be pretty picky about organ meats, but now I view it as a challenge to use as much of the animal as possible. We eat the organs, we eat the meat, I make bone broth, and my husband is learning how to tan the hides. It's amazing to me when we are done how little of the animal is left over. You have been such a great part of this journey by teaching about bone broth. Edited to add: The tuna pie recipe you shared is one of my families favorites and we have in on a constant rotation 💗
Dear Mary, since finding your channel we are cleaning up our act, moving toward a traditional foods kitchen! Dry milk was a huge discovery!! We stopped buying commercial coffee creamer (I was shocked to realize the ingredients in it 😳) and also wanted to have a prepper pantry milk option. The non-fat dry milk is surprisingly delicious in coffee!! We bought a big box for the prepper pantry but we're using it daily for coffee too! Thank you so much - I continue to learn so much from you!! ❤
Mary has a fabulous "DIY creamer" recipe on her website. It's basically dry milk powder and the (dry) sugar of your choice mixed in a blender or nutribullet. It makes a wonderful powdered coffee creamer :D
I am amazed by you, Mary. You must be the most organized person I’ve ever seen. I’m probably the most unorganized person, but I’m learning from you. Thank you for the effort you make for your subscribers!
Mary, I always learn something new from you. Your weekly videos are a Saturday morning treat! I so appreciate all of the time and work you do to give us such a wealth of information. Blessings and love. 🙏❤
That definitely sounds like a migraine headache. I don’t have them often but they feel just like what you describe. I do basically the same thing you do and it really helps the pain and nausea.
Thank you Mary. Always enjoy! The WEF met this week In Davos Switzerland Including US leaders Talking about a possible climate lockdown so these are great ideas. Thanks for sharing
One of the things im doing to save on the grocery budget is growing and preserving as much as i possibly can and mixing my own seasoning like chili beef stew taco in labeled jars . And learning to make my own condiments . Id really like to get to the point all i need from grocery is flour sugar corn meal corn starch baking soda salt and pepper
I already have chickens and am thinking of getting a pig and get my beef from a local cattle farm where theyve been doing things the same way for almost 300 years because the farm has remained with the same family .
When I get those blinding headaches, I take 2 Tylenol and 1 Advil with a room temperature Coke. The does help settle the stomach and the caffeine helps address the constricted blood vessels. The best preventative measure is to drink barrels of water each day. Dehydration is the culprit for a lot of headaches but when a migraine breaks through, I find the Coke does help.
As a migraine sufferer, the excedrine and a cold soda made with sugar was one of my go to reliefs! I used to use a Dubin Dr Pepper, but it worked so well! I think it is a mix of getting the caffine and sugar into your system from the soda as the meds break down. The only cold just helped me deal with the pain, rather than putting a cold wash cloth on my head.
thankfully I don't have them any more, but you're right. If I could catch it early, a Coke, Excedrin, and if possible a dark room for 15 minutes always worked.
A friend introduced me to having a latte at Starbucks for migraines which were crippling at times. The caffeine, milk sugars, a little sugar and protein to slow it all down. Regular coffee didn't work the same.
@@emmasurf8109 Wondering, since I haven't tried this relevan remedy in years, if the America coca cola made with HFCS instead of cane sugar would work. (The few times I indulge in sodas I find some drink Mexico that's have sugar instead of corn syrup.)
You need regular granulated sugar for the hummingbirds as they can't handle the minerals in a good sugar. I do make sure it is cane sugar if I am going to use it also.
You mentioned using the Coca Cola for settling the stomach. An old fashioned remedy for nausea is to sip some straight cola syrup. I keep that in my emergency supplies. One time when I had to take antibiotics without water on an empty stomach prior to surgery, I asked to use a sip of cola syrup to coat the stomach. The surgeon had never heard of it but gave me the go-ahead...and it worked like a charm!! That could be helpful for those of us that don't have access to the cane sugar cola.
Hi Mary! I haven’t gotten thru the entire video yet, but I wanted to comment before I forget. For beverages, i will buy fruit that’s in season and steam it to make my own fruit juice, then I can it. It doesn’t have any added sugar, and when I need it I just open up a jar and dilute as needed. It’s wonderful and so much better than commercially made fruit juices!
I can up crab apple juice each year and use half a glass crab apple, sugar to taste and then add sparkling water to top it off. They have small soda machines less than 100$ well worth the cost of you like sodas. I am picky and only use pure cane sugar sodas or make them myself.
We are doing Jessica's pantry challenge. She is so sweet. My husband and I bought a few cans of fish(I can't remember what kind) during a grocery trip last Fall. We often buy tuna but had never bought this before. I told my husband I'm going to have to figure out something to do with it if we are putting it in our pantry. The pantry challenge may be the time I figure that out. Thank you for the tips, Mary. God bless!
Thanks for all the time you put in to your channel and checklists.... all the free resources to help people. I appreciate you. 😊 God Bless you and your family.
Great video with lots of info for the beginner. My challenge is stocking very low carb shelf stable foods as that is how we need to eat. Lots of meats and fish, vegetables, broths and good fats. It's so much more expensive than beans and grains. Sale's are a blessing. Would love to hear what other low-carb folks are stocking.
You can, can your own meat. They make electric pressure canners (not instant pot, but an electric canner). You can get sale meat and can it yourself. Shelf-stable meat 😊
I'm happy to find your channel! I loved the sections on pasta and rice. In 2019 my niece and I took a 3 week trip to Croatia, Slovenia, and Italy. One of the things I planned were a few inexpensive B&B stays with kitchenettes. I packed garlic salt, pepper and Italian seasoning. Right when I got to Italy I bought some olive oil and in various villages we visited we would buy local pasta. I would use those few ingredients to make what I called "peasant pasta" for simple, affordable meals throughout our trip. These were fun memories for us and the pasta was a simple nutritious meal. 🙂 I also here on my little hobby farm like to do my version of Golden Rice. It's white rice, a couple of my girl's eggs, turmeric and some dried seaweed. It's been a healthy, inexpensive lunch on many days. I look forward to following more of your wealth of knowledge! Thank you!
Mary you are a treasure, I have been stocking up on since 2021. I’m diabetic, I need to know about nutrition. I have learned through your videos how to make much of my food. I portion it out and freeze things.I also make sure that I cook my food before I freeze it that way if the electricity goes off I’m not panicking that I will loose food.
I absolutely love you 💝 So incredibly helpful and just love how you teach. Just love listening to you and learning as I'm hustling and bustling around my home 💝
Migraine, yes . I've had them since childhood, each time I would eat hotdogs. I've found that nitrates spur on migraines for me so look into lunch meat, processed meats & wines with sulfates can affect those who can't handle nitrates too . 🙏 I hope this helps .
I cant believe how much incredible information you have packed into this video! WOW! Wish I had the information stored away in your brain. I render my own tallow for soap making and its just so useful to have on hand. I have some that I've rendered and hot packed into jars. I just opened a 3 year old jar and its just as perfect as the day it went into the jar.
Just needed to say Thank You ! I already prep pretty deeply BUT (😁) you are a great resource and reminder Not to let things slide ! Inventories , 4Corners storage, Menus, .... You keep everything Fresh in my mind and you keep me from sinking into normalcy bias and over spending on the Wrong (unhealthy or boxed) foods.
Another great video. You are so kind and so professional and so practically helpful. It's been shocking grocery shopping lately because I remember process. It used to be get a pound of dried beans for about $1 per pound and now it's usually $2 per pound or more. I'm so glad you mentioned the high fructose corn syrup (HFCS). If I ingest it, it affects me greatly, the best I can describe it is I appear intoxicated. Once a friend had to drive my car home for me because I accidentally didn't check ingredients on a store bought cake. I love Mexican Coke, probably have one a couple of times a year. I hate when my friends are sick and drink regular ginger ale or lemon-lime soda to settle their stomach.
The "regular" soda helps quite a bit with nausea. Diet will just make it worse due to the artificial sweenters that are actually pretty toxic. Also, interesting to know about the corn syrup as I've often described myself as getting " sugar drunk" when I have certain things.
@@crystald3655 yes that’s a great way to describe it, sugar drunk. I had to quit sodas over 20 years ago for this reason. Now there are many “no HFCS” sodas that are made with real sugar. I can drink those, though I still don’t drink soda very often.
Mary, you are always such a wealth of information! Thank you for you time and willingness! Regarding the headaches… as a migraine sufferer myself… those sound like migraines. Mine started with hormone changes, and I have been able to figure out some of my triggers- dairy, msg and stress are the biggies for me. I’m glad you said you don’t get them a lot! They are not fun!
Oxtail. A very traditional and very inexpensive cut of meat across several cultures. Huge in Jamaican, Central American, and Carribiane cultures. High-end restaurants started using it, and now it is painfully expensive Real shame. Thank you for this informative and helpful video.
Excellent video, going to have to watch it in stages. And probably more than once, LOL. TY. You know your stuff, you're my "go to" channel for 100% reliable, varied and expansive body of food prepping knowledge and info, you're the best!
Mary! I haven’t gotten to listen to this particular video in depth yet (I’ve just had it playing quietly while I cook and eat before the baby wakes up), but I just had to comment…I was SO happy to see what you you have in the background if this video! I’m going to share this with my mom, mother-in-law, and sister-in-law; they’ll appreciate seeing the all those Catholic things as well! 🥰
I’m lucky enough to work where we get a 25% discount on one transaction once at the end of the year. I save up and do a MASSIVE shopping trip and try to stock up enough to last us until the following big shopping trip. I still keep my eye out for sales during the whole year tho. I do buy a lot of certain things at a time doing it this way but then chances are decent that I won’t have to buy more for a whole year or more. Let me tell you how much this came in handy in 2020 and seeing first hand how people were acting over toilet paper! We literally had to have several associates guard the pallets as they were being stocked 😳. I didn’t have to worry tho because I always STAY stocked up on things like that. By the time I needed to restock my home some of the craziness had died down 🙌.
Thanks for sharing. I only get headaches when I haven't eaten anything in time. Mostly happens at work. I do sometimes get motion sickness. Healing Scents Anti Nausea/Motion Sickness inhaler helps for sudden cases. Ginger products help with nausea. A sea band also helps but it requires placing on the right spot which is past the wrist. I mostly drink water with a splash of cranberry juice. I drink one coffee or sweet iced tea per day. I also drink Water Kefir and Kombucha. May be closer to getting a place for the three of us. Found some rent-to-own homes with affordable monthly payments. Just have to find one near transportation to work.
I love it, thank you so much for such a sensible system! :) I've had migraines all my adult life. I'm so glad yours are rare. Many things help with nausea, chamomile tea, peppermint tea, ginger ale, ice water sipped, saltines nibbled, a piece of plain toast (nothing on it, eaten warm) or any combination of things that doesn't turn your stomach to think about ..there are a lot that can help settle down the nausea.
I don't know if you realize that baking powder has corn in it. My husbands worst allergy is corm and you can make baking powder with 2 parts cream of tarter and 1 part baking soda. I am glad you know about the Mexican soda. Many Mexican products can be found without corn where most regular brands contain corn. Unfortunately, Goya now puts corn in their bouillon where they didn't used to.
Thank you for this detailed, excellent video. I'm nearing retirement and am absolutely loving the information you're providing. It's really helping me get interested in planning and preparing as I head for a fixed income. I truly appreciate you and all the effort that goes into making these videos.
It’s not the sugar it’s the extra caffeine. As a migraine sufferer I do take prescription meds that said, the meds are basically the same thing with 1 added ingredient. You can use 2 extra strength Tylenol and 1 Nodoz with Coke (any caffeinated soda). You can also use 2 Midol with Coke, Pepsi or Dr.Pepper. Afterward get in the hottest shower you can tolerate and breathe the steam through your nose. For the nausea under any circumstances really I use Tazo Zen tea with 2 medallions of fresh ginger and honey to sweeten. It works great. (If you blend teas you can make your own. Look up the ingredients on the box). Otherwise, I’ll go for the old stand by Canada Dry ginger ale.
Another educational and enjoyable video presented in a way that just about anyone can relate… whether a novice or an experienced homemaker. Thank-you. ❤
I love sardines straight from the can. I like to add spicy mustard or regular mustard on top. My grandparents always made salmon patties and I would eat them up. So delicious. My dad use to make a cream tuna on toast when I was young. It was can tuna, can green peas, flour, milk salt and pepper cooked. Then would pour over toast for a meal. Mary what’s your take on the Pink Himalayan Salt from the Dollar Tree? It says it’s all 100% natural.
I had problems with headaches like this until we learned that my neck was broken. Installation of hardware and plates helped tremendously. That being said, what I learned is that caffeine boosts the properties of some types of pain killers. Eventually, I stoped using the over the counter products (and also mfg opioids) and relied upon poppy seed tea which contains all of the pain ingredients used in those OTC products. They add caffeine to one of the main opioid pills for this reason. Add a sprinkling of coffee grounds to the seeds within your steeping container or baggie to boost the pain relieving properties. Just fyi, poppy seed tea is not regulated and safe to use.
I know the value of food, and the corner store knew I didn't have much, and I think they knew and they would offer me bologna ends for less than 1/2 price, I know how to save and you are teaching me new things, Thank you, I'm good now but I know about making food last. Thank you again for the tips
Great video on stocking our pantries. I could watch you all day. I hope you are prepared for the coming ice storm. I will be praying for you and your family to be safe and warm. We are also in its path but we are used to them. May God bless you all
I thought I was cooking "homemade " until I started learning from you. Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge. By the way, homemade bone broth---Game Changer!
Great video Mary- I enjoy listening to you ! Like chatting with an old friend ! Can’t imagine living through a depression but folks were kinder back then. If things get this bad now, I cringe to think of the crime……
In 1954 a classmate from England showed me the recipe for baked beans over bread as a snack after school. I still enjoy that flavorful meal to this day. 65 years ago 🌺!!!
I haven't listened to the whole video yet, but KNOW i will enjoy every minute! I just from an RV to a house. I will be setting up my 4 corners. I have a freezer and i used it while in the RV (It was outside!), but will have better access to it to be able to use it much more efficiently. Love your downloads.

Love, Mary
Have you ever dabbled with the freeze drying method of preserving food and if so, what do you think about it. I have been considering it because in a lot of natural disasters potable water isn't necessarily available and with the freeze-dried food whether beans or fruit or veggies they can be eaten as is.
We do and I love it!
Thank you so much for going the extra mile .I really appreciate the extras Marys ,your really a gift to those of us who are starting from "scratch" lol .take care
Take magnesium at least 300 mg daily for eliminate those headaches!!❤
Who’d a thought I could listen to someone go on for over 2 hrs chatting about pantry stocking! What a treasure you are, Mary.
She will save many from starving in the days to come...if they take heed of what she teaches. Whole foods from non genetically modified lines will go far in health as well. She is a treasure.
I have listened a few times 😆
Right ! ❤ I could listen to Mary no matter the subject 😊 she is such a blessing.
I love listening to Mary’s calm voice!
@@mollygardens6646 yes !!
Love Mary. Always envision her gentile nature while SHTF and she’s equipping the 50cal mowing down hoarded of marauders while smiling and saying “hi sweet friends!”
LOL!!
@@MarysNest 😅
That’s funny! 😂
😂😂😂
I grind those little canned hams and make sandwiches spread with it. (Add mayonnaise and little sweet relish a dab of mustard) and I also use leftover mashed potatoes ,an egg a tiny bit of flour to help hold the patty together mixed in the ground ham to make ham patties...both are very good at stretching the food to feed more for less.
I absolutely love your advice and guidance. You are like a dear friend, who imparts skills we should have learned from our elders. As an adult, I had to teach myself skills I hadn’t learned, but then took a few years off to go to school once my homeschooled children were adults, rather than becoming skilled as a homemaker. I loved learning in college, but my eyes and mind have been opened to all the many things I could have learned without spending so much money. My daughters bought me your book and I am working on becoming a homemaker at 65 years old. Thank you and God bless.
Another idea is learning to can. I have canned chicken, ground beef and sausage.
The chicken is raw pack but the ground beef and sausage are hot pack.
So much cheaper than store canned.
Ms Mary... You are OFFICIALLY my internet grandmother. I could go on listening to you talk for 12 more hours. Wish I could meet you in person, you are more of a blessing than you know!!
Oh my goodness!! Thank you!! Your being here is a blessing to me!! Love, Mary
Your story about the baked beans is just precious. My Dad is 88 he too was a child during the depression and talks about that pop of baked beans was the meal compared to now being a side dish. They even ate beans with eggs for breakfast and now it's our favorite
Baked beans are a classic part of a full English breakfast.
Awe. Ask dad lots questions about growing up and keep them wrote down such a precious gift to keep
@Natalie Butler my family came to the "Americas" in 1640. We still keep many traditions . Just not a fan of the mashed peas over a baked potato
My grandkids still use a can of beans for lunch.
@@alisonhallock7870 lol, you have to like peas!
I live in a four-season climate in the country in Canada. I started buying pantry items in August to have all the extras I need by the end of October so I am not hard-pressed to get out in our full winter months. I keep a healthy supply of herbal teas. I also bought powdered whole milk so I can make a half and half blend of the powdered and the liquid milk,.I keep a good supply of tuna and salmon tins on hand--so versatile amd shelf stable. 🥰🎶❤️🇨🇦
We have a very small property, (less than 1/4 acre)which we make the very best of. As well as veg, we grow a lot of fruit on it. The land was pretty cheap because it had a high sand content, and was bare of vegetation, (except for weeds!). For the first few years I got leaves and compost from neighbors and grocery stores.
- Blueberries are the easiest of all the fruits to harvest; just pick 'em and freeze 'em - they love acidic soil, so use your coffee grounds to fertilize. I get free coffee grounds from coffee shops on my town trips. If you don't have a pick up truck, line a good, heavy box to throw their bagged grinds in.
- Strawberries are pretty easy to harvest & freeze. For easy harvest, I have a sturdy old stool I drag along, (I'm in my 70s).
-Fruit trees are all grafted onto DWARF root stock. Those smaller trees produce an amazing amount of fruit, but you can actually access all of it without climbing up on an extension ladder to harvest or prune. I got my trees for only $10.00 each because it was late in the season, and the trees were stressed, so I had to watch them very carefully for pests, and I lovingly babied them for the first two years, and now they're as healthy as if they had always been robust.
I had a choice to get food or non-food producing plants and our lot is now healthy, pretty. Since we concentrate the compost around the plants we made paths between and around them - no lawn mower!
In lieu of a lot of bottled water, I have a good quality (Katadyne) water purifier and also water purification tablets. You need a water collection vessel and clean, BPA-free containers for storage.
Hi Mary, I have been listening to you for months, and some of your vlogs multiple times. I have spent the past 4-5 months building a Prepper Pantry. I have put inventory onto my iPad, but now thinking that I want to transfer to a binder using your prepared forms. I need to find your forms and print off a set. There are 6 people, 3 generations,in our home right now and I am thinking a binder accessible to everyone might be helpful. I watch multiple preppers/homesteaders. We have a large home, on 1/3 acre in the Rocky Mountains. We have had a small kitchen garden the past 3 years, and have expanded each year….and have already begun things inside even though we are still in full-blown Winter here: but Spring is trying to move in…we get snow here until May. So, thank you for your wonderful teaching. You are easy to listen to, and very practical. We are fresh/frozen food people and have lots of freezer space, but not enough. Definitely Traditional food lovers. I have learned to make bone broth and desperately working at less food waste. Hard with so many people, teens to seniors. Our son-in-law and daughter are very good at taking left-overs for lunches which is good. I have commercially canned foods in the prepper pantry in our storage room in our basement, as well as rice, oats, flours, chocolate chips, dried fruits and commercially canned fruits, etc. I have wonderful premade soup mixes. I have stocks and both canned and powdered, etc. Lots of herbs and spices in kitchen and extras in the prepper pantry. Now, I am building up the 30 year freeze dried kinds of foods. All three forms will keeps us making the same favorite meals we enjoy…just from fresh/frozen, to commercially canned (including canned chicken, corned beef, tuna, a little beef (never used it before but at least something should fresh beef not be available, or affordable). I also have low salt Spam, and canned ham. I do not have any freeze dried meats as they are very expensive and truly hoping that we will not need that. We are not hunters, but we could be. We have lots of friends who are, so we have agreed to barter should it come to that: I can make breads, and we are expanding our kitchen garden to potatoes (second year and have them started inside right now). Hoping to build a green house soon. So, if we can have room for growing “salad foods” and plenty of herbs year around will be awesome. And, will gladly share/barter. Anyway….thank you as you have helped me the most. It is a lot of work but thankful that I am big into cooking and gardening. Getting rid of “stuff” to make room for food. Praying it will not be needed. And, if not, then we will simply incorporate the commercially canned foods into our daily life. I do believe we will leave the 30-year kinds of foods where they are…..just in case needed. My husband and I will not life that much longer: 82 and 77, but our kids and grands will. So, we will leave them with some “insurance” for the future if we are blessed to not need them in our life time. So, off to find and print your lovely forms and set up a binder all can see and use.
Wow!! Thank you so much for sharing all of this. You are an inspiration!! Love, Mary
Salmon patties with onion!!! Yummy!!! I keep large glass canister jars with staple goods such as oats, quinoa, beans, etc . . .
I definitely believe that was two-and-a-half hours well spent! A lot of it was things I knew but still of review is always good and I definitely like the worksheets and will be incorporating them. I've been following you for quite a few years and as time goes on I find that I respect you and the things you're teaching more and more. Thank you again!
Glad you enjoyed it!
That is absolutely correct…and I have listened to this particular one 3 times! LOL. I just play her vlogs on my iPad while I am cleaning or cooking!
I love to put her videos on as I work around the house, or at night I listen to her and learn as a quiet my mind. Thank you so much for your sweet nature and I love your cookbook. I just got it in the mail.
Be sure to have a non electric hand crank can opener! Hard to open a can without electricity!
Bone Broth is SUPER NUTRITIOUS!!! We also had massive vegetable gardens and a fruit orchard which we harvested as a family each fall to put in our root cellar and for pickling and preserving. 🥰🎶❤️🇨🇦
Bless you Mary, you bring us such sunshine and we know we can count on you.
My husband is a hunter and I used to be pretty picky about organ meats, but now I view it as a challenge to use as much of the animal as possible. We eat the organs, we eat the meat, I make bone broth, and my husband is learning how to tan the hides. It's amazing to me when we are done how little of the animal is left over. You have been such a great part of this journey by teaching about bone broth.
Edited to add:
The tuna pie recipe you shared is one of my families favorites and we have in on a constant rotation
💗
Hi Andie, so happy to hear that you and your family enjoy the tuna pie! Love, Mary
I absolutely adored hearing you tell the bean story. Your joy is palpable! God Bless 💖
Dear Mary, since finding your channel we are cleaning up our act, moving toward a traditional foods kitchen! Dry milk was a huge discovery!! We stopped buying commercial coffee creamer (I was shocked to realize the ingredients in it 😳) and also wanted to have a prepper pantry milk option. The non-fat dry milk is surprisingly delicious in coffee!! We bought a big box for the prepper pantry but we're using it daily for coffee too! Thank you so much - I continue to learn so much from you!! ❤
Hi Kris, SO happy you are on this traditional foods journey with me!! Love, Mary
Mary has a fabulous "DIY creamer" recipe on her website. It's basically dry milk powder and the (dry) sugar of your choice mixed in a blender or nutribullet. It makes a wonderful powdered coffee creamer :D
Sweet Mary…You deserve a PhD in Prepper Pantry Preparedness! Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge 💖🙏🕊
I am amazed by you, Mary. You must be the most organized person I’ve ever seen. I’m probably the most unorganized person, but I’m learning from you. Thank you for the effort you make for your subscribers!
Mary, I always learn something new from you. Your weekly videos are a Saturday morning treat! I so appreciate all of the time and work you do to give us such a wealth of information. Blessings and love. 🙏❤
That definitely sounds like a migraine headache. I don’t have them often but they feel just like what you describe. I do basically the same thing you do and it really helps the pain and nausea.
I never thought of putting sealed olive oil in the freezer!!! Thank you for mentioning that!
Thank you Mary.
Always enjoy!
The WEF met this week
In Davos Switzerland
Including US leaders
Talking about a possible climate lockdown so these are great ideas.
Thanks for sharing
One of the things im doing to save on the grocery budget is growing and preserving as much as i possibly can and mixing my own seasoning like chili beef stew taco in labeled jars . And learning to make my own condiments . Id really like to get to the point all i need from grocery is flour sugar corn meal corn starch baking soda salt and pepper
I already have chickens and am thinking of getting a pig and get my beef from a local cattle farm where theyve been doing things the same way for almost 300 years because the farm has remained with the same family .
Love that!
Thank you so much for teaching me all the things my family never taught me.
When I get those blinding headaches, I take 2 Tylenol and 1 Advil with a room temperature Coke. The does help settle the stomach and the caffeine helps address the constricted blood vessels. The best preventative measure is to drink barrels of water each day. Dehydration is the culprit for a lot of headaches but when a migraine breaks through, I find the Coke does help.
As a migraine sufferer, the excedrine and a cold soda made with sugar was one of my go to reliefs! I used to use a Dubin Dr Pepper, but it worked so well! I think it is a mix of getting the caffine and sugar into your system from the soda as the meds break down. The only cold just helped me deal with the pain, rather than putting a cold wash cloth on my head.
thankfully I don't have them any more, but you're right. If I could catch it early, a Coke, Excedrin, and if possible a dark room for 15 minutes always worked.
A friend introduced me to having a latte at Starbucks for migraines which were crippling at times. The caffeine, milk sugars, a little sugar and protein to slow it all down. Regular coffee didn't work the same.
@@emmasurf8109 Wondering, since I haven't tried this relevan remedy in years, if the America coca cola made with HFCS instead of cane sugar would work. (The few times I indulge in sodas I find some drink Mexico that's have sugar instead of corn syrup.)
You need regular granulated sugar for the hummingbirds as they can't handle the minerals in a good sugar. I do make sure it is cane sugar if I am going to use it also.
Thank you for all the work you put into your channel and the free printables. you are so kind.
Thank you so much Mary for these free printables! It will be a great help to very busy moms like me!
I remember momma made homemade noodles when the butcher had 6 Ox tails for .75 as we were very poor. One of my favorite meals. Blessings, julie
Love ox tails and they are so expensive now.
@@ravenlaughs9757 it's so ridiculous!
You mentioned using the Coca Cola for settling the stomach. An old fashioned remedy for nausea is to sip some straight cola syrup. I keep that in my emergency supplies. One time when I had to take antibiotics without water on an empty stomach prior to surgery, I asked to use a sip of cola syrup to coat the stomach. The surgeon had never heard of it but gave me the go-ahead...and it worked like a charm!! That could be helpful for those of us that don't have access to the cane sugar cola.
YES, that has always been our family remedy. Cola syrup is still available at the drugstores. Love Mexican Cokes. So glad they are still making it.
Hi Mary! I haven’t gotten thru the entire video yet, but I wanted to comment before I forget. For beverages, i will buy fruit that’s in season and steam it to make my own fruit juice, then I can it. It doesn’t have any added sugar, and when I need it I just open up a jar and dilute as needed. It’s wonderful and so much better than commercially made fruit juices!
I can up crab apple juice each year and use half a glass crab apple, sugar to taste and then add sparkling water to top it off. They have small soda machines less than 100$ well worth the cost of you like sodas. I am picky and only use pure cane sugar sodas or make them myself.
Used to mix half powdered milk with half whole milk. No one knew the difference and saved $
Hi Mary!! Pomona's pectin allows you to use little to no sugar for your jelly or jam. I use it all the time. Works perfectedly!
We are doing Jessica's pantry challenge. She is so sweet. My husband and I bought a few cans of fish(I can't remember what kind) during a grocery trip last Fall. We often buy tuna but had never bought this before. I told my husband I'm going to have to figure out something to do with it if we are putting it in our pantry. The pantry challenge may be the time I figure that out.
Thank you for the tips, Mary. God bless!
Thanks for all the time you put in to your channel and checklists.... all the free resources to help people. I appreciate you. 😊 God Bless you and your family.
My pleasure!
Years ago they used to use coke syrup for nausea.
Great video with lots of info for the beginner. My challenge is stocking very low carb shelf stable foods as that is how we need to eat. Lots of meats and fish, vegetables, broths and good fats. It's so much more expensive than beans and grains. Sale's are a blessing. Would love to hear what other low-carb folks are stocking.
Freeze dried pulled pork & ground beef (ex: Thrive Life). Canned chicken, salmon, sardines, herring, tuna.
You can, can your own meat. They make electric pressure canners (not instant pot, but an electric canner). You can get sale meat and can it yourself. Shelf-stable meat 😊
I'm happy to find your channel! I loved the sections on pasta and rice. In 2019 my niece and I took a 3 week trip to Croatia, Slovenia, and Italy. One of the things I planned were a few inexpensive B&B stays with kitchenettes. I packed garlic salt, pepper and Italian seasoning. Right when I got to Italy I bought some olive oil and in various villages we visited we would buy local pasta. I would use those few ingredients to make what I called "peasant pasta" for simple, affordable meals throughout our trip. These were fun memories for us and the pasta was a simple nutritious meal. 🙂 I also here on my little hobby farm like to do my version of Golden Rice. It's white rice, a couple of my girl's eggs, turmeric and some dried seaweed. It's been a healthy, inexpensive lunch on many days. I look forward to following more of your wealth of knowledge! Thank you!
Wow! Thanks for sharing!! Love, Mary
Mary you are a treasure, I have been stocking up on since 2021. I’m diabetic, I need to know about nutrition. I have learned through your videos how to make much of my food. I portion it out and freeze things.I also make sure that I cook my food before I freeze it that way if the electricity goes off I’m not panicking that I will loose food.
Wow! So happy to hear this!! Thank you for the kind words!! Glad we are on this traditional foods journey together!! Love, Mary ❤️🤗❤️
You are a God sent Mary!
I absolutely love you 💝
So incredibly helpful and just love how you teach.
Just love listening to you and learning as I'm hustling and bustling around my home 💝
Oh Cambria, Thank you so much for the kind words!! Love you too, Mary
You can find dried beef at the 1.25 store and I love creamed chipped beef on both toast and mashed potatoes :)
Your common sense and calm demeanor is a blessing. Thank you
Migraine, yes . I've had them since childhood, each time I would eat hotdogs. I've found that nitrates spur on migraines for me so look into lunch meat, processed meats & wines with sulfates can affect those who can't handle nitrates too . 🙏 I hope this helps .
Thanks for the tips!
I cant believe how much incredible information you have packed into this video! WOW! Wish I had the information stored away in your brain. I render my own tallow for soap making and its just so useful to have on hand. I have some that I've rendered and hot packed into jars. I just opened a 3 year old jar and its just as perfect as the day it went into the jar.
Just needed to say Thank You ! I already prep pretty deeply BUT (😁) you are a great resource and reminder Not to let things slide ! Inventories , 4Corners storage, Menus, .... You keep everything Fresh in my mind and you keep me from sinking into normalcy bias and over spending on the Wrong (unhealthy or boxed) foods.
You are so welcome!
Also Dollar Tree sells boxed milk that typically has about 8 months shelf life. It comes in non fat, low fat, and whole.
Another great video. You are so kind and so professional and so practically helpful. It's been shocking grocery shopping lately because I remember process. It used to be get a pound of dried beans for about $1 per pound and now it's usually $2 per pound or more. I'm so glad you mentioned the high fructose corn syrup (HFCS). If I ingest it, it affects me greatly, the best I can describe it is I appear intoxicated. Once a friend had to drive my car home for me because I accidentally didn't check ingredients on a store bought cake. I love Mexican Coke, probably have one a couple of times a year. I hate when my friends are sick and drink regular ginger ale or lemon-lime soda to settle their stomach.
The "regular" soda helps quite a bit with nausea. Diet will just make it worse due to the artificial sweenters that are actually pretty toxic. Also, interesting to know about the corn syrup as I've often described myself as getting " sugar drunk" when I have certain things.
@@crystald3655 yes that’s a great way to describe it, sugar drunk. I had to quit sodas over 20 years ago for this reason. Now there are many “no HFCS” sodas that are made with real sugar. I can drink those, though I still don’t drink soda very often.
Mary, you are always such a wealth of information! Thank you for you time and willingness! Regarding the headaches… as a migraine sufferer myself… those sound like migraines. Mine started with hormone changes, and I have been able to figure out some of my triggers- dairy, msg and stress are the biggies for me. I’m glad you said you don’t get them a lot! They are not fun!
You are an absolute font of knowledge! I learned so much from just this one video. Thank you.
Kippers: who knew I'd ever enjoy a snack including that!! 😊 Thanks for the insite.
Mary you are so organized, you always have the best advice. Downloading all the info. Starting my kitchen journal this year beginning in February.
Oh Cynthia, thank you for the kind words! I am so happy that you are on this traditional foods journey with me! Love, Mary
Oxtail. A very traditional and very inexpensive cut of meat across several cultures. Huge in Jamaican, Central American, and Carribiane cultures. High-end restaurants started using it, and now it is painfully expensive Real shame. Thank you for this informative and helpful video.
Massively expensive in NY
I get Migraines and struggle with nausea on a regular basis. I find that sipping unsweetened good quality Black Tea helps a lot.
The old Frugal Gourmet books feature many of the "peasant foods" Mary is talking about in this video. Interesting to read.
You truly are a national treasure..such a blessing
Oh my goodness!! You are SO sweet!! ThNk you!! Love, Mary
Excellent video, going to have to watch it in stages. And probably more than once, LOL. TY.
You know your stuff, you're my "go to" channel for 100% reliable, varied and expansive body of food prepping knowledge and info, you're the best!
I just preordered your cookbook coming out in August. I can’t wait ❤️❤️
Yay! Thank you!
Mary! I haven’t gotten to listen to this particular video in depth yet (I’ve just had it playing quietly while I cook and eat before the baby wakes up), but I just had to comment…I was SO happy to see what you you have in the background if this video! I’m going to share this with my mom, mother-in-law, and sister-in-law; they’ll appreciate seeing the all those Catholic things as well! 🥰
Thank you Mary for sharing your knowledge and talents!
Roasted Soy Beans can be ground and used as a peanut butter substitute.
Dear Sweet Mary , thank you for this information. Bless you ❤️🙏
I have been working on the one egg cake recipe to be delicious especially with the high cost of eggs. It's been fun.
Jenny Can Cook has a great recipe for chocolate cake that uses no eggs and no milk and no butter. It's very good and hard to mess it up.
I’m lucky enough to work where we get a 25% discount on one transaction once at the end of the year. I save up and do a MASSIVE shopping trip and try to stock up enough to last us until the following big shopping trip. I still keep my eye out for sales during the whole year tho. I do buy a lot of certain things at a time doing it this way but then chances are decent that I won’t have to buy more for a whole year or more. Let me tell you how much this came in handy in 2020 and seeing first hand how people were acting over toilet paper! We literally had to have several associates guard the pallets as they were being stocked 😳. I didn’t have to worry tho because I always STAY stocked up on things like that. By the time I needed to restock my home some of the craziness had died down 🙌.
This is fantastic!!
Hi Mary! Thank you so much for all of the tips, tricks and tidbits!
Thanks for sharing. I only get headaches when I haven't eaten anything in time. Mostly happens at work. I do sometimes get motion sickness. Healing Scents Anti Nausea/Motion Sickness inhaler helps for sudden cases. Ginger products help with nausea. A sea band also helps but it requires placing on the right spot which is past the wrist. I mostly drink water with a splash of cranberry juice. I drink one coffee or sweet iced tea per day. I also drink Water Kefir and Kombucha. May be closer to getting a place for the three of us. Found some rent-to-own homes with affordable monthly payments. Just have to find one near transportation to work.
Stewed fruit is called compot, and instead of water we use Kosher sweet wine. You can can it also.
I love it, thank you so much for such a sensible system! :) I've had migraines all my adult life. I'm so glad yours are rare. Many things help with nausea, chamomile tea, peppermint tea, ginger ale, ice water sipped, saltines nibbled, a piece of plain toast (nothing on it, eaten warm) or any combination of things that doesn't turn your stomach to think about ..there are a lot that can help settle down the nausea.
I don't know if you realize that baking powder has corn in it. My husbands worst allergy is corm and you can make baking powder with 2 parts cream of tarter and 1 part baking soda. I am glad you know about the Mexican soda. Many Mexican products can be found without corn where most regular brands contain corn. Unfortunately, Goya now puts corn in their bouillon where they didn't used to.
Thank you for this detailed, excellent video. I'm nearing retirement and am absolutely loving the information you're providing. It's really helping me get interested in planning and preparing as I head for a fixed income. I truly appreciate you and all the effort that goes into making these videos.
It’s not the sugar it’s the extra caffeine. As a migraine sufferer I do take prescription meds that said, the meds are basically the same thing with 1 added ingredient. You can use 2 extra strength Tylenol and 1 Nodoz with Coke (any caffeinated soda). You can also use 2 Midol with Coke, Pepsi or Dr.Pepper. Afterward get in the hottest shower you can tolerate and breathe the steam through your nose. For the nausea under any circumstances really I use Tazo Zen tea with 2 medallions of fresh ginger and honey to sweeten. It works great. (If you blend teas you can make your own. Look up the ingredients on the box). Otherwise, I’ll go for the old stand by Canada Dry ginger ale.
Another educational and enjoyable video presented in a way that just about anyone can relate… whether a novice or an experienced homemaker.
Thank-you. ❤
Thanks Prepper Martha! You’re the best!❤️
❤️🤗❤️
I love sardines straight from the can. I like to add spicy mustard or regular mustard on top. My grandparents always made salmon patties and I would eat them up. So delicious.
My dad use to make a cream tuna on toast when I was young. It was can tuna, can green peas, flour, milk salt and pepper cooked. Then would pour over toast for a meal.
Mary what’s your take on the Pink Himalayan Salt from the Dollar Tree? It says it’s all 100% natural.
I love creamed tuna! I make it every once in a while!!
Basmati is the most wonderful rice! Yum!
I had problems with headaches like this until we learned that my neck was broken. Installation of hardware and plates helped tremendously. That being said, what I learned is that caffeine boosts the properties of some types of pain killers. Eventually, I stoped using the over the counter products (and also mfg opioids) and relied upon poppy seed tea which contains all of the pain ingredients used in those OTC products. They add caffeine to one of the main opioid pills for this reason. Add a sprinkling of coffee grounds to the seeds within your steeping container or baggie to boost the pain relieving properties. Just fyi, poppy seed tea is not regulated and safe to use.
I love to dehydrator top of green opinions and make into a powder
Thank you so much! And love your paper work that you offer for free you are a really caring person!
I know the value of food, and the corner store knew I didn't have much, and I think they knew and they would offer me bologna ends for less than 1/2 price, I know how to save and you are teaching me new things, Thank you, I'm good now but I know about making food last. Thank you again for the tips
Thank YOU for being on this journey with me! Love, Mary
Great video on stocking our pantries. I could watch you all day. I hope you are prepared for the coming ice storm. I will be praying for you and your family to be safe and warm. We are also in its path but we are used to them. May God bless you all
I thought I was cooking "homemade " until I started learning from you. Thank you for sharing your wealth of knowledge. By the way, homemade bone broth---Game Changer!
Ms Mary you are so organized and creative!
Thank you! 🤗
Great video Mary- I enjoy listening to you ! Like chatting with an old friend !
Can’t imagine living through a depression but folks were kinder back then. If things get this bad now, I cringe to think of the crime……
Bu bilgiler çok değerli .Teşekkürler harika bir video olmuş.
Mary, have some Feverfew on hand for those headaches/migraines. It works WONDERS.
In 1954 a classmate from England showed me the recipe for baked beans over bread as a snack after school. I still enjoy that flavorful meal to this day. 65 years ago 🌺!!!
Another fantastic video from the Queen
Wow, thank you!
Adding bay leaf to flour is a good idea yes i do this to white four . And of course a container.
Thanks for sharing all your insights with us! Blessings❣️
I like to have powdered eggs or powder egg substitute on hand. It makes nicer baked good and adds nutrition.
Blue ice gel kept fridge cold rubbed on forehead.Lay 20 mins in dark area will break headache but wash off gel well before going outdoors.❤
thank you for this. I only use non-wheat pasta. I think it also has a long shelf life.
This has been very informative and helpful. Thank you.
My dad taught me to the same thing with prices. As well as noticing where you can get the most for your money when shopping.
Hi Jeannie, You have a very smart dad!! Love, Mary❤️🤗❤️
Sadly my dad passed in 2017.
I haven't listened to the whole video yet, but KNOW i will enjoy every minute! I just from an RV to a house. I will be setting up my 4 corners. I have a freezer and i used it while in the RV (It was outside!), but will have better access to it to be able to use it much more efficiently. Love your downloads. Thanks for all you give of yourself.
