Hey there!

 

Have you been feeling like you need a bumper sticker that says "I survived March of 2020"?  I definitely would buy one!  In the midst of the coronavirus scare Utah was hit by the biggest earthquake since 1992 and just 30 miles from my home!

 

I've spent the last ten years teaching people how to be prepared for emergencies and all of a sudden ALL of the things we have practicing and preparing for are coming in handy.  It is a scary but also a very encouraging time. 

 

While the rest of the world panics, our little Food Storage Made Easy community quietly stays home with our food and our toilet paper supplies with smiles on our faces.  However, even though you may be prepared there are still some things you can do to make the next few weeks (or months) a little easier on you and your family.

I've been wanting to put together a blog post since all of this corona craziness started. But being in the midst of the crazy (with homeschooling four kids as a single mom), plus getting engaged (yay!), plus having the earthquake hit which broke my fridge/freezer (great timing) ... didn't leave me much time to put my thoughts together.

So I have a special surprise for you today. Julie (my former partner over at Food Storage Made Easy) put together a great guest post for me to share with. She spent ten years helping me teach thousands of people how to be more prepared and now the time has come for ALL of us to use what we've learned and she's been missing being a part of it.

In the midst of all the crazy coronavirus scare I also did a crazy thing!  If you are a member of my Preparedness Facebook Group you may have already seen this but ... I GOT ENGAGED last weekend!!!  

 

For those who have followed our blog for a while you have seen me go through a divorce and be a single mom for five years.  I am truly grateful to have found someone incredible to share my life with.  Between the two of us we will have SEVEN kids so I'm definitely going to be upping my food storage supplies as well as asking for tips on how to cook for a BIG family.  If you have any great bulk recipes please send them my way!

 

This also means I will most likely be moving as my new man lives in Pennsylvania.  So stay tuned as I will be sharing the process of eating through and moving all of my food and supplies.  Yikes!

 

Bring on the new and crazy adventures!

Hope you all stay safe and don't run out of toilet paper.  I would love to hear from you on how you are doing with your preps and how you are surviving this crisis!
