Food Storage, really?



I have been wanting to do some kind of food storage for a long time, but I wasn't sure the best way for my family. There are dozens and dozens of different ways that you can do your food storage. I have been researching online and I even bought a few books from Deseret Book in the past six months. They all have very different approaches to food storage. Because I am in an apartment I would get discouraged about the storage space and just feel like it is impossible to do food storage right now. One day, when we have a house and more kids, then I will do my family's food storage. Well, the thought that I need to do it, kept nagging me. So, on and on I looked and finally figured out the best way to do it for my family. I first read the book, I Can't Believe It's Food Storage, which is really good and has some great recipes...that is if you have wheat and all the normal food storage stuff. Which I don't have. So, I read the book, It's in the Bag. Wow, never would have thought that you could do food storage that way. You basically put all the ingredients to make a meal in a bag and there you go it's ready for you, including enough water too. I really like this idea and so I am going to try it out. First, I am going to test out the recipes in the book to see if we like them. And get to work on our food storage. If any of you are overwhelmed by food storage like me, I could use the support and any ideas that you have. Thanks.

You are too funny. The bag idea sounds good to me. I am discouraged about a lot of things right now, food storage included...so you need to motivate me too. hehe

Homemade Diaper Bag

I finally made a diaper bag for myself to replace the nasty old one I had. I am so far loving it a ton. I went from a pattern at first then scraped it and did my own design. I am happy with the result and now I am contemplating on making more and selling them. XOXO-Erin

Does anyone have a trank gun!

Sometimes I feel like a toddler, discovering my belly button for the first time. My belly button is so unrecognizable now. The only problem I am finding about being pregnant is all the body changes. I mean, weight! Being thin for 28 years then ballooning up in a matter of months has really scared me. I know, I know, everyone says that I will loose it all very quickly, but I still don't like it. At church I looked down at my feet and ankles and realized that I no longer have any ankles...they have morphed into cankles...Yuk! I was so discussed that I almost threw up. I wish I was one of those women who don't gain hardly anything and don't really look like they are pregnant until they give birth. Okay, enough of poor me! It's not hard to remind myself that I am pregnant though...I can't go an hour without her kicking me. There is life in there...I am so happy whenever I can feel her. I am happy really easily...just give me chips or ice cream and I am fine. Which isn&#

Our Baby Girl's Room

The Baby room is getting more attention now. I have decorated the walls and put new bedding in the crib. I thought about painting the walls but I think it looks better with the original cream color. I really didn't want to much going on in there. She is one lucky girl to have all this attention to her room. If you didn't notice from the pictures we have decided to name her Cheryl Love Christopherson. She is named after her Grandma Christopherson that has passed away from breast cancer. She was a amazing woman and so little Cheryl has some big shoes to fill. My next project is to make some cute little dresses for her. We can't wait for her arrival. XOXO-Erin
