I was grilling it up tonight and ran out of my favorite spice. It prompted me to write this short post.
Get some spices on hand for your food supplies. I like emergency essentials long term storage spices. I am a big fan of salt and garlic as a way to “spice” up that storage food. Also, if you are forced to eat rat or pigeon you are going to want need some spices! They are relatively inexpensive and can bad stored for years if done properly. They don’t take up much space either which makes them ideal for the suburban prepper who is light on storage space.
Side Note #1: I am brainstorming ways to get prepared-minded folks in contact with each other as was suggested by several posts and a lot of emails. So far, nothing!
Side Note #2: The T-shirt designs are coming along. Look for them in the next couple weeks.

I have seven and a half pounds of Spices and that does not count my salt. The wife is stringing up Cayenne and we can grind it to a powder. I am thinking that long tern Garlic storge is a must. Cumin and Cilantro will be helpful. In short, I think you are right on! It is going to be bad and a little spice might make it somewhat bearable. Keep blogging!

One trip to the dollar store and you are set for several years. Spices are a must.
Garlic should be in your garden. Very easy to grow and store. There’s an excellent article in the newest Backwoods home magazine on this topic. It should be on their webpage in a few weeks. http://www.backwoodshome.com/current_issue.html
