Are you prepared? Trying to be more self sufficient

Its a short season on it so prob will again next year.

 

Does cotton candy have a flavor ? Other than sugar, been many moons since I've tasted it.

 

As seniors hip to the world today. We garden and butcher much of our groceries. We no doubt carry a label of some sort. But we're only repeating what yesteryear did. Only easier with a chicken plucker and better garden tools. I grow and tend the outdoor and the lovely wife takes care of what comes from there. All here know it's far better grub than what is mass produced.

 

Hobart slicer. Nice.

 

1712 auto, puts a smile on your face as it drops thick or thin bacon slices.
It and a Biro 22 saw are on the okc craigslist and with no bites since listed. Not a lot of DIY'ers I suppose. I've got every thing available a person needs to process less the room/building.

 

Hobart will outlast you and your kids. I had a Hobart Slicer in my restarant. Sliced hunderds of pounds of ham and veggies on it.

At 170 lbs it's an industrial tool along with the biro.

 

In case others do not know - there is a plugin called CamelCamelCamel available that lets you put price watches on Amazon items. You can set it up to send an email notification when the price for an item hits a target point. Very useful for things you might want to pick up if they go on sale, but may not be worth the regularly going price.

Occasionally, prices inexplicably drop below what might be considered a 'sale' price into the realm of "Crazy Eddies Discount Emporium" prices. If you are lucky, and are online when such an event happens, and you get the email, and are quick with the decision making - you can score a great buy. Two weeks ago, I got that email.

Yesterday, they showed up on my porch - 93 bucks for four of the best water containers I have found.


Immediately after I pulled the trigger on the 4-pack, I thought about going back for more to re-sell, but the price was back to normal.
