April's Self Reliant Sisters Group
We had a great discussion on the difference between 3 month food supply items and longer term food supply items. We also looked at possible containers to use and talked about ways to use them effectively. RaeAnn shared her plan and how she stores things. Thanks RaeAnn and thanks for the buckets as well. We also talked briefly about the big umbrella of Grains. As always if you have any questions about what you see here or need any help let me know. For information on how and where to get buckets...see below.
Thanks ~ Sis. McKnight

A Reminder
The Easter Egg Hunt is coming up. It will be at Sister Auayfuay's next Tuesday, the 7th at 11 am.
Remember your 12 goody-filled eggs per child you bring....
A basket/bucket/bag to carry them in....again per child.....
And a potluck item to share...not necessarily seven strawberries, but that's all I had handy and it's just for the visual anyway!
