Welcome, my name is Jennica! I created this space to document my favorite past time, creating in the kitchen. You can find me tossing ingredients together, reading from my giant cookbook collection, or peeping into thrift stores for the next great find in the kitchenware. Feel free to come along on this journey where i'm dishing delights (and maybe a few disasters).
I enjoy watching your videos kinda sad your not creating new videos. People could really benefit from your experience in the kitchen cooking delicious meals on a budget. Lots of people out here struggling.
Looking back on my life (73 years!) I wish I had done more of this. Yes there are always unexpected bills-especially with kids. And unexpected illnesses, surgeries, layoffs. I’ve concluded that every family needs just 3 levels of food storage: paycheck-paycheck, 5 days emergency meals, and 3 months hard times. This allows you to rotate your food items. The first is your regular planned meals. The Emergency bucket or tote is for power outages, local storms, or car issues. I should be able to get to the store within that time. Plus I have what is in the house for the first level. The Hard Times can happen too. But if the issue is not resolved in a month or two, then I’d have to look for other answers. If it’s something like a flood or tornado, the food I’ve worked so hard to collect will be destroyed.
I think your storage look great!! Very organized. I love how you have your spices too. You and I buy very much alike. New sub here. Thank you so much. 😊
Thank you for this! I like seeing ideas for what to do with our stocked up food! I've been canning tons of things.... im running out of ideas that aren't the same thing over and over! Oh, and you're very smart to keep yourself protected!
Just in case someone comes across this video and sees this comment, not every drop has to pay for shipping. I live in Idaho, close to Oregon where Azure is located and we don't pay for shipping. I believe it depends on where you live in the US. Have a great day. 😊👍
I know this is an old post but I wanted to thank you for showing easy affordable meals that can be used in an emergency. If something bad happens (my granddaughter teases me and tells every one that I'm preparing for the zombie apocalypse and she's moving in with me when it happens lol) then I'm not going to worry about salt, MSG, GMO or any thing else. I'm going to worry about feeding my family so they don't go hungry. Your meals not only look delicious but it doesn't break the bank purchasing them. With today's economy I'm very thankful to have your recipes and ideas. Thank you again.
This is such a great idea. I make these individual freezer meals with leftovers too, as an empty nester. I’ll make a roaster chicken and make several meals using it. I’m going to put together some Thanksgiving bags together inspired by your video. I think a couple cans of green beans, cream of mushroom soup and canned fried onions will elevate it, maybe some canned pumpkin with a spice cake mix. We’re all just here to inspire each other. I love your channel!!!
I love your channel your getting my household prepared for all kinds of stuff. I am writing down all your recipes keeping them all on hand because once the grid goes that's when the panic will start to set in. I am coming up with plans & having backup plans. Folks its going to get really bad real soon. Best to be ready.
We experienced a lot of layoffs over the years so I've always kept extra non food items stocked. Now we keep a year of shelf stable foods in stock. I don't keep a lot of snacks. I started making my own laundry detergent too.
