Okay, so I have been a total blogger drop out since Thanksgiving. The girls did a post about Maddie's birthday, but I have been neglectful. We have had a lot happen and will try to catch up, or at least stay current.
We were asked by the bishop on Sunday, along with some other families in our ward, to live on our three month supply for 10 days. We started on Monday and are now on day three. We have been using up our fresh groceries, so it has not been to hard so far. We have had one total meltdown (Maddie), because we could not go out to ice cream with her cousins. But the kids are actually doing pretty well. I have been using my dinners that I have planned for our three months supply. I had to make bread on Monday because we were almost out.
So far I have learned that I need an egg substitute for making baked goods, I am down to three precious eggs (as Maddy calls them).
I need to practice my chili making, or find a better recipe. Even Austin wouldn't eat it! They filled up on cornbread and actually didn't complain to much.
If any one has a great food storage tip or recipes let me know, since I am experimenting right now.

Lori has a great chili recipe...I use it all the time. It is canned beans all different kinds, canned tomatoes, a couple scoops of garlic, package of chili seasoning (I prefer walmart brand), a onion, brown sugar and cider vinegar. I love it and my kids love it as well.
Wow!! I'm impressed! I know how hard it is for me to find something to make for dinner without worrying about using food storage ingredients. You make me want to be better prepared. Share with us all that you learn.
