Chunk is out of town this week and challenged me to feed our family until he gets back on whatever we have in food storage/unused pantry items. Of course, this is when it's been 2 WEEKS since my last shopping trip!!
I said, Ok, I can do this! Never say Never!!
Lemme tell you - - This is harder to do than your average million dollar challenge!!
I've all ready resorted to making powdered milk for cereal, boxed pancake mix, fruits in cans & jars and making my own bread - - but do you know what?? I've never felt more accomplished or more happy about doing something than this challenge!
It's actually been kinda fun - - which is a HUGE step for this non-cooking, get-me-Cafe-Rio-tonight kind of girl! I've also learned a lot about making do, and things that I would REALLY need a 1 year supply on if I couldn't go to the store anymore. (i.e. powdered milk!!!)
So if you're feeling ultra brave and homemaker-ish, you should give this a try! You will learn so much :) If ye are prepared, ye shall not fear.

Man! I haven't even convinced Cam that we need pwd. milk in our food storage yet.
You rock!
Now, may be I didn't understand, but DO YOU get a million dollars if you do it?
LOL!! No i was saying it's harder to do than a million dollar challenge . . .like Survivor or the Amazing Race! :) But it is fun in a self-sufficient sort of way :)
