More Green Beans to put up Sioux Vide Venison Roast Drying more mint for winter teas Redoing the prepper pantry since we wont be remodeling it this year Kitchen Remodel UpdateWeekly Shopping Report
Our trip was a little abbreviated this week. Not needing anything there, we skipped Home Depot; I figured to check the price of a 2x4x8 online, but it's not clear which product I've been viewing; it might be $3.67, but it may have dropped a lot, to $2.98. I'll have to actually go inside next time.
The first stop, as usual, was Dollar Tree. No big changes were evident. The shelves all look pretty well stocked, although there is some duplication.
Aldi was next and last. We found everything we wanted, which for some reason was a short list this week; perhaps because the garden is producing.
Some staple prices are:
Eggs, $1.12; milk: $2.92; heavy cream: $4.69; butter: $3.19; bacon: $3.99; flour: $2.19; sugar (jumped): $3.09.
Hearing of shortages, I expected to see the 70% chocolate I like going up, but it is still $1.99 (I don't think it has ever changed that I remember); and OJ is $3.19 (that's at least a quart, but I need to recheck to be sure; it's a large glass bottle).
Untainted regular gasoline remains at $3.899/gallon.
Frugality Tip: Nothing in this week
Operation Independence
Around 8 jars of green beans added for “free” this weekMain topic of the Show: First Aid on the Homestead
Why it is important: Often the hospital is far away, things go wrong on the homestead quickly. It becomes up to you to handle things.
Chuck People's Class at SRF on Wound Care got me thinking Clean, Covered to protect from dirt, Observe The Zello Message What we did: Pressure, Cleaning, Etc – but the hair Sewing scissors (Have a sharp pair of scissors on hand)Butterfly, steri strips, etc, Good quality clippers
Some things to audit: Bandages, supplies, guaze etc Bentadine vs alcohol Stop Bleed, Wound Care, Signs of a concussion, etc Ointments and meds Organization - we moved things around and did not communicate well about it (oops) COMMSTurns out the animal first aid kit was more together for today’s incident than my generalist human one so that got used.
What to do to prepare
Stop the bleed class Wound care class Learn how to handle snake bites and bee stings gone wrong Learn about dealing with illness and herbal remediesHomesteading can look like all baby goats and garden abundance, but it is a very physical lifestyle. This means that you are exposed to getting hurt, and responsible one it does happen.
