    Hi Mary. It took me awhile here and there to finish watching this one. I've been running around as it's said like a chicken with its head cut off. Lol. It's 3: 50 am here in PA. I slept a good 7 hours. I'm just thinking about everything on my to do list. And you were 1st. So 1 down and numerous to go. Thanks for all the tips. We do not have a cosco or any stores other than Walmart that carries bulk items. I wish we did. It looks like fun. Thank you so much and of course your talented camera man. Take care. God bless. Donna

    Hello Mary, We appreciate all you share/give, thank you! Another great food source is, US Chef Store, 20/25lb. bags of pinto, black, etc. beans are available at fair prices. Along with a multitude of other foods and goods also at fair prices. Keep up the amazing job you're doing and God bless you for all you give! Love and much respect, Lee and Roger🙏💖

    Please don't promote buying bottles of water, their horrible for our planet. Recycling is non existent in many areas of the country. Get whole house water filters or only stock for emergency for those on well water.

    You know, Mary, when it's absolutely stupid-hot in Summer months, you actually can take your toaster-oven OUTSIDE to do your cooking on the porch or perhaps out on the patio. Whether you have an external power outlet or use extension cords, you can fire up the oven and use it to bake those cakes or roast those chickens, etc. The same applies to your instapot or slow cooker. This is definitely the argument in favor of setting up an outside (or "canning") kitchen.
    If you have a shed or you have the space for one (and can afford it), this might be a good option.

    I don't know if you have a solar generator (such as a Jackery or a Kodiak) and solar panels.
    I sincerely hope that you do.
    I've learned that many over-landers and American Nomads (people living The Van Life or The RV Life) have been using their solar generators to power their instapot and regularly cooking their meals on the road using solar power. I'm pretty-sure you could also use it for your toaster oven. Possibly also an electric grill. This is something any of us can do in our own back yards, saving money AND keep the house from baking in Summer.

    Of course, I cannot forget about the solar oven. Cook outside… with zero gas or electric. That's a very good option.
    ( The All-American Sun Oven is definitely on my Wish-List.)
    I don't remember if you have a solar generator and panels and/or sun oven. If you do I'd love to see that content.

    I noticed something. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like the newest Food Saver vacuum-sealer includes new jar lid attachments. Did I see that correctly or do I need glasses? On that note, I saw in another video that FoodSaver actually has a stand-alone jar-lid vacuum-sealer. It's battery-operated and it just pops onto the lid and sucs out the air. I think I need one.
    BTW, since I'm reminding myself of glasses… that's another Prep you can stock up on at Costco. If you use reading glasses, you can buy a 3-pack of readers to keep for Just-In-Case. Okay, it's not Pantry-related… but it is Preps.
    I've been wanting a vacuum-sealer for awhile now. My Emeril pot has a sous-vide mode and I want to try that out.
    I've been thinking about using Sous-Vide cooking as a Prepping technique. I'd sous-vide some steaks (a big batch), then let them cool and throw them into the freezer. Stack them vertically. Whenever I want steak or chicken, I pull out a sealed pack, thaw it out, cut it open and sear the outsides (or possibly air-fry it) and Dinner Is Done.
    It seems to me that sous-vide + freezer = Not needing to use oxy-absorbers. (I think I'm right.)

    PLEASE I want everyone's opinions about my thoughts and theories and ideas. Let me know if you agree with my opinions… OR teach me what your experience has taught you.
    I mean no sarcasm when I say, "Correct me if I'm wrong".

    Hi Mary! I live in San Antonio and I believe you said you live in the hill country. Curious to what Costco you were shopping as my Costco in SA (closest to me) doesn’t have some of the kitchen items you showed. Thanks!

    Hey Mary 😄! (I feel like you're my neighbor and I so wish you were) with that being said… do you watch Ryan Hall? I think you have mentioned him before. Everyone in Texas and Oklahoma please tune into him ASAP. Everyone stay safe.

    I use a turkey roaster with a foil liner. Braise meat, pull it to rest cool and cut. Out comes foil, in goes up to ten lbs vege and broth and seasonings. One hour later add meat for 30 minutes. Boom, food for ten, fifteen if you have bread.

    Hi Mary, I enjoyed this even though we don't shop at Costco because I always learn something from you! I have been going round and round thinking about sprouting and soaking oats because we eat homemade granola or granola bars every morning. When you talked about the sprouted oats at Costco I decided I needed to research some more so I found your "never sprout grains again" video and Ureka! I'm not going to worry about it anymore! I've been a little worried about the heavy metal in dark chocolate issue lately because I love a little dark chocolate in my morning granola. Well, if phytic acid helps remove heavy metals then maybe I'm covered?!? 🤔Have a blessed week Mary!

    I have the Oster french door air frier oven & honestly I never use my regular oven anymore except for turkey at Thanksgiving… everything else fits in the countertop oven & is so much more convenient. Living in Hawaii, as in Texas, heating up the kitchen can be an issue so the Oster oven is so much more efficient IMHO…

    iDesign is what I use in my refrigerator, freezer as well as my cabinets. Using these has been a game changer for me. These are used in my bathroom cabinets as well. Everything is still organized and was worth every penny 🙂
