This video shows how I store rice long term. There are several ways you can do this, but this has worked for me for years. I hope this helps! Thanks For Watching!
Hi from Puerto Rico! Before storing my rice, pasta or beans I place them in the freezer for 3 to 5 days, depending on the amount, so any weevil eggs can be eliminated. Then I store them. I'm storing everythong and anything I can, not only food but also over the counter medications, personal hygiene products, house and kitchen cleaning products, storage containers and bags. I saw your video on butter storage so that is next on my list of storage products. Please keep these videos coming cause I love them and specially your carisma child. God bless you and yours always. 😉
I was just coming to the comment section to say the same thing! I put mine in freezer for 3 days, then use silica packs that you can get from amazon to keep moisture out. I love the idea of the bay leaves. Bugs hate them!
Rice will keep for a long long time as long as you aren't opening the container a lot. Baking soda will also keep it fresh and moisture free. You put the baking soda in a sock, tie up the top and drop it in the middle of the bucket
A woman after an old lady's heart...this Way is the only Way taught by my Grandmothers to a little girl with big eyes and ears. They used glass jars to store, and net bags to dry mushrooms, etc. in the woodstove alcove. 140 years of knowledge and you are passing it down to more generations (with modern storage containers). Blessings and Respect to you, Ma'am. Thank you!
That warms my heart that you did not take all the rice. God can easily pay you back for that kindness. "Don't forget to be kind to strangers, for some who have done this have entertained angels without realizing it. " Hebrews 13:2
Im a 1st time viewer. BLESS YOUR HEART! GOD JUST USED YOU because I asked him how do I store all of this rice I have. MY LORD JESUS HALLELUJAH😇 Im in NY & everyone is still partying & shopping like its nothing to be concerned about so I'm able to get everything on my stock up list. SUBSCRIBING NOW & pressing the DARK BELL🏆 GOTTA SUPPORT THIS DOLL🌸
True. I keep posting videos like this on my FB page, telling people about the food supply line being destroyed and to start growing food... nobody even comments.
@@123Goldielocks THATS A FACT🏆 I look around & my heart breaks for those LOST, DEAF, DUMB, & BLIND....It's refreshing to have found this channel where someone someone speaks OUR language. STAY SAFE🌸
@@michelemilesgardiner4522 I truly understand. Understand they are STILL SLEEP & REBELLIOUS like the children of Israel who worshipped other gods after GOD FREE'D THEM FROM OUT OF BONDAGE.....Smh Unfortunately & Fortunately THIS IS IT.....JESUS IS HERE & WE MUST ENDURE UNTIL THE END🌸 STAY STRONG & ENCOURAGED
Oh I am so thankful God gave me the sight to see the writing on the wall. I started prepping over a year ago for my family and friends. Especially those not paying attention. I have 1000 pounds of rice stored. I see hunger coming and rice will go a long way. My plan is to help others too.
The most important part I liked was when you described how you took less in when you observed the people behind you were looking for the rice bags on limited supply. Hats off to you. I would do the same.
The different stores have different colored 5 gallon buckets (Lowes has blue, Home Depot orange, etc) I stored all my rice in blue buckets, beans in red, flour in white, sugar in gray, etc. At a glance you know your inventory. As your filling your buckets, you will tally how many pounds of that item fits in the bucket. Like 35 pounds of rice fits in each 5 gallon bucket. Also dont buy the cheap lids that are sold separately. Instead invest in GAMMA LIDS. They run $7.99 each but are well worth it. They are heavy duty and have an O-ring making the bucket airtight.
It's not good to store food in those colored buckets from Lowe's/Home Depot etc. because of the chemicals they use to color them. Use food grade containers.Many restaurants have them
You have a wonderful, peaceful spirit. God bless you! There need's to be more peaceful spirits in the world these days. And your way of spreading useful info is priceless.
I have been storing foods in mylar bags for about 4 years. My family thought I was crazy until the pandemic hit. Now apparently I'm a genius! LOL. Thanks for your videos! It was very considerate of you to share. We all have to get through this together. Be safe please.
For sure I grew up on Country food it's what you can rely on indeed. I've been a few years at it last years I've been stocking seeds,coffee, small stuff , yeast, house hold stuff camping stuff like the metal fire coffee percolators. Cast irons cookware.
thehoofersclub all my coworkers before this fake pandemic ( cause its really a PLAN - Demic) told me I was crazy for keeping stores on hand that if something happened they could always just go to the supermarket and get more food. 😳🤔 Guess who they went to for toilet paper? As it went on and on they started to say they would come to my place for food stuffs. I told them if they did I would end their lives. They thought I was kidding. 🤔 if people are so stupid as to not protect their families lives before SHTF don’t come to those who didn’t wait.
Hi! I don't know you, but I'm so stinkin' proud of you! I'm watching this video 5 months after it was posted, and your words about food storage are now, and will be, so very important. The Fear-mongering reaction from CV19 was a heads-up on how susceptible Humanity is to 'LACK'. Many of us remember well the Bread line pictures in Moscow in the 1960s, our parent's stories about the soup kitchens and scarcity of everything during the Great Depression and wars. So KEEP ON KEEPING ON with your homestead pioneering spirit and REALLY GOOD help and hard-earned Wisdom. This mess might be worse the next time. YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MANY SEEDS YOU'RE PLANTING TO LITERALLY CHANGE FAMILIES' LIVES FOR THE BETTER, not just now, but for generations to come. You're a fun teacher. You make me giggle with some of the looks you give - and the best compliment of all: You're REAL. We are learning a LOT, and you two are a Joy. Thank you!
you putting that rice in that square buck brought back memory of my grandmother I was 7 or 8 and she put spit peas in a plastic container this was back in 1968, and in 2016 when my mother went to her resting place I found the same peas in the same container and was eatable still and no crumbs or powder in it. thanks for the memories and how to store our rice, be Blessed
@@HOMESTEADHEART HOMESTEAD, CHECK WITH THIS SISTER CALLED THE RADICAL SISTER TO MAKE SURE YOUR RICE 🍚 IS NOT CONTAMINATED WITH RADIATION FROM FUKOSHIMU , pardon the spelling. ru-vid.com/show-UCOfPaEUzxZH9kfnUmUVGJYA
Appalachias homestead w/ PATARA She said to make sure you knew sent me here. I watched the video about storing rice. I can see me watching you for a long time
When i had my bakery, i used to give away all my 5gal buckets to anyone who asked! Folks been prepping for many years, and alas, here we are Thanks for the care and info! Crazy times indeed. 💫❤️💫
I love that you use bay leaves. My aunt saw flour and cornmeal in my refrigerator and told me to get that out of the refrigerator and put some bay leaves in it and put in the pantry where it belonged; been doing that for 40 years now and it works!
Bay leaves, layer it in your bucket. Throw some salt on every layer as well. Mylar bags oxygen absorbers other people use I don't buy it, cost factor... I love your rice storage method. You can ask local bakeries for their flour buckets as well. Our grandmother's and great grandparents didn't have Amazon, oxygen absorbers or mylar bags. They preserved their foods by canning, with salt and bay leaves. You go girl love you. Rice storage for the rest of us. 100000000 thumbs up.
How Kind you are!! Not taking the last bag of rice!! It only takes one person to change another life!! You changed the other folks that were awaiting to get there rice!! Blessings to you !! big Smile from Montana!!
Love it sis! So prou of my people for returning to the old knowlwedge our Ancestors left us!!!! And from one southern Black farmer t another, I call down God's blessings on you, your family, your fields and your community!!! Love what we kept and keep on passing it on. God bring us healing and may our Ancestors prayers for us take fruit in our lives...they certainly are working in your lives!!!
Love😊👍🤗🙏 all That You Show Us New Canner. People. I come Back To Your Videos and watch Them again. Because I Enjoy Them Thank You So Much For all You Do🐾
I was a dept manager at Walmart for 5 years and we didn't throw those buckets away we were suppose to send them back to the company for a credit,but the customers always came in asking for them so we sold the 5 gallon for 1$ and the smaller size for 50cents, you can buy them in the paint dept. For about 3 or 4$,if any one want to get those too
I would get the 5 gal buckets from the bakery- icing comes in them- instead of washing them they would give them to us,it changed to $1 - I worked there ( Walmart) for 10 yrs, they are food grade' paint buckets aren't food grade.
Home Depot and Lowes sells Food Grade Buckets called Leaktite. They have the 5 gallon and 3 gallon buckets. The Food Grade Buckets are mark with Food Grade Buckets on them. In addition, they have a triangle with a #2 or #5 on the bottom of the bucket. This is food grade safe. You can always research food grade buckets and what type of buckets to use.
You can also buy bay leaves in bulk from your local Middle Eastern store! The ones I found are as big as my hand, and they're sooo aromatic! This was the first food prep video I watched... three years ago...and I immediately subscribed. You have a heart of gold! I've been prepping for three years.
I love this! I had heard about bay leaves. My grandmother also taught me doublemint or spearmint gum. To this day in my working pantry, keep a stick of gum in the bottom of my flour and sugar canisters. Oh. I also still use my Tupperware blue canister set that she got me when I got my first home... 40 years ago. 😍.
Interesting 🤔Could you give me more details, Just got married I'm 32and have twins, We just started living off grid, and I've noticed little bugs in my sugar and meal, so I keep tossing them, can just store in my tiny fridge we have for the babies milk, that runs on solar by the way 🙏🙏
I shared the video where you were singing. Thank You for waking up a handful of my family and friends. They wouldn't listen to me, but thanks to you they are now stocking up 😃.
I thank God for people like you who show everyone how to store and can food. In these uncertain times, every family better be doing something. I just bought another 10 pounds of Rice today. I try to get something for our food supply every time I’m in the store. A few cans here, a bag of Rice there, and it won’t take long and you’ll have a several weeks of meals to eat should hard times come our way. Thank you again for what you do. May the Lord bless you and your family. -Stephen, Ohio 🇺🇸
I want to say THANK YOU for being real about food storage! I've watched others that use all of the fancy-smancy items to store food. I used your method (prior to watching this video) for rice and yes, it works well. I too go overboard with the bay leaves, but if one ends up in the cooking process, that's flavor for the rice! Thank you again for your down-to-Earth, real homesteading advice!
The different stores have different colored 5 gallon buckets (Lowes has blue, Home Depot orange, etc) I stored all my rice in blue buckets, beans in red, flour in white, sugar in gray, etc. At a glance you know your inventory.

I live in UK and I been preping and storing for years . Ypu can how ever store black rice and pink rice in the same way . What I do is put grease proof paper ypu guys call it parchment paper first then kitchen towel and then bay leaves from my bay tree dryed bay leaves not freshly picked then I layer the rice and leaves in my bucket . This woman is amazing
Heads up your local Chinese restaurants love to give them away. Of course some may not but you only have to ask. I have nine free buckets in my garden. God bless!
Thank goodness you are talking about this. I have been preparing for months, but sadly i notice that many people are not preparing. Especially young people! Please listen to her and prepare. You have so many common sense ideas. Who know what we are in for but it sure doesn't feel good.
Thank you for sharing how easy it can be. Too many people complicate it in other videos. I have heard that Rice doesn't need oxygen absorbers because it is naturally an oxygen absorber.
Finally got the answer. Have been upset about how much cost and effort it takes to store rice. Every one else makes it a costly pain in the but. Thank you.
So glad to see someone else using bay leaves to ward off weevils, etc. My mom always used bay leaves in her flour, bean, etc canisters. Just found your link. thoroughly enjoying watching/learning tips! Thank you!
You are a considerate woman, knowing that others were waiting to buy their rice too. This is why the stores during this "PANDEMIC" imposed only buying two items per person maximum. This keeps fights from breaking out!
I freeze mine for 3-4 days prior to putting it up to kill any mealy bugs. Glad to know I don’t need the Mylar bags!! Saving a chica some money, thanks girl!!
Have you checked out any of the info on these channels, so much we aren't being informed about if we depend only on the lame stream media. In support of this first statement take a look at this, then tell me you believe you can count on what the "NEWS" is telling you. Its all controlled, like in the movie Wag the Dog, most of it is lies to control the dialogue, to shape the point of view of reality they want the masses to have. If you look into Floyd....there is so much going on there we aren't being told, like the copper with his kneed on the dude's throat that supposedly killed him, WORKED with him at the same place when he was off shift....they knew one another. These riots just like the plannedemic were intentionally designed & started. Pallets of bricks have been dropped on the streets (financed by George Soros) intentionally to give the people out there objects to throw & cause damage & death. Give me a break, if people can't see that's planned then they deserve what's coming next. Check out Holly Dremmam Deyo she does amazing prep info research as this wonderful channel we are watching here obviously has & does. Holly wrote Dare to PRepare, her husband Stan Deyo is also an amazing man & if you look any of his interviews or talks up he is informed from inside sources as to what is planned for our demise, what to expect in our future so we can mentally, [hysically & most important Spiritually prepare for what is upon our doorstep & going to be unfolding over the coming years. Its time for people to get out of the cities if they can & if not truly prepare to hunker down & not have to be out in the public areas where mayhem will reign as some point in time when we all really need to be staying home. Carol please check out these channels, you will really appreciate the info they deliver on topics weekly such as State of Global food supply Weather around the world & what it is doing to the crops of any given year Information you won't read or hear in/on lamestream media but intelligent informed individuals know or want to know. Ice Age Farmer channel Adapt 2030 Grand Solar Minimum GSM which is an historical cycle of the sun that affects food supply b/c of temps & weather The Two Preachers (you won't believe the ongoing extreme flooding & weather around the planet we are NOT being told of) for yrs now. Dr Rashid Buttar - about the lies we are being told about the cv 19 situation its all about a global agenda for total control, lock down all the time everywhere with 5G A.I. surveillance grid system being installed around the world whilst we have been locked in our homes....unfortunately helping them to install the UN AGENDA 2030 aka UN AGENDA 21 for a future under a Dystopian Dictatorship COMMUNISIM for all forced vaccines, forced microchipping, cashless society where you are monitored, rated & your access to travel, purchase goods, receive govt assistance etc. depends upon what your points rating is AS WE SEE CHINA TODAY. Did you know the first MEGA City to go all 5G under A.I. is WUHAN? or that the CRUISE SHIPS have 5G, or that ITALY is one of the first nations to go 5G, that NYC has 5G or that the ventillators are run by 5G remotely from the nursing stations? 5G is mm wave technology used by the military in arenas of war, it negatively affects both the Oxygen & Water Molecules even when they are those that comprise our body, causing all the signs & side affects of hypoxia, aka oxygen deprivation, altitude sickness...there once were a number of videos on YT of Drs & scientists explaining this danger to us but they have ALL BEEN CENSORED. because they are TRUTH & the powers that be want us to only believe their lies. the riots are planned the plannedemic was planned see EVENT 201 Look into Bill Gates he is a eugenecist & wants world population reduction & HIS vaccine ID 2020 will do just that. KILL many of us it actually ALTERS THE RNA & DNA of all those who take the vaccine. Do NOT take it if you know what's good for you. I stopped watching TV going on 10 yrs ago now I research for 6 hrs nightly instead. Here are some of the most important things I have come aross we all need to know I want to share with you. Many of the impt ones I like to share have been removed as the censorship of truth is getting worse by the day. I urge everyone to get FREE RU-vid Downloader & back up anything you feel is important you wish to share or review as the chances are when you return to it, it is gone.

From Western Canada, thank you. Thank you for all the great information and freely sharing your knowledge and experience. You are very appreciated...and my wife and I wish you were our neighbors.❤🙏
Be sure that if you do have bugs, just measure the rice and add water. Bugs will float to the top and will pour off. Rinse again and make sure no more bugs. Now put in rice cooker and add water, salt, and oil. Cook as per instructions.
I completely agree, we are seniors and have been prepping for years, and our kids. We don't know what tomorrow will bring, but we should prepare. Thanks again...this is much easier than what I have been doing!
ThAnk the Lord for you. With all your video are helping me get closer to my dream of my own Homestead piece of happiness. Yes we have nothing yet but canning will I believe help me get in that direction. Thank you thank you
If I could give this a million thumbs up I would! Your caring and integrity shown here is a valuable lesson to others, in addition to the information shared.
Sis, you make me so proud. You're what I call a DIVA (Dutiful Invincible Very Astute) young woman. Much respect to you and your husband, Mr Heart. Peace always.
I dry can my rice because there are eggs laid on the rice that you cannot see and they will hatch out and eat the rice. Dry canning is the best and safest way it will last forever it is a forever food when you dry can rice. I love your videos. Keep them coming. God bless you. ❤️
If they don't charge then I would advise you to get as many as you can before everyone else catches on. I use to get buckets from Costco's Bakery FOR FREE! Now they are no longer giving ANY BUCKETS OUT! Home Depot sells food grade buckets. They will say "food grade buckets" on them.
Yall are about to be my big sister and brother! You are a God send and a hard working woman!!! Be blessed always and keep on doing what you are doing...we are listening!!!!!
Thank you so much! Because right now my containers are filled to the rim with BAGGED rice! I have brown rice too and won't save anymore. Thanks again for the tip. May the Most High bless you and your family!
THIS is why I love your stuff some MUCH! KNOWING that someone was behind waiting to get some bags I left some for their family! I WILL ALWAYS treasure all your videos. NOT ONLY informative but given from a real heart!
Dear homestead heart, I am just getting into pressure canning and I have enjoyed watching you and learning so much, I am noticing most of your videos are 3 years old, I am just curious on how you are doing hoping and praying all is well with you and your family, you are such a blessing.
I’m from the Dominican Republic 🇩🇴 I remember mom years ago she went into this storing anything she could, and would be like mom are you preparing for the end of the world 🌎??? We make fun of mom and laugh, she come back and say go ahead laugh 😂 you won’t be laughing if all of sudden you have no food! Little did we know 11 years after her passing we would be storing and preparing, hoping for the best, but preparing for the worst, I rather be prepared then be blindsided. To my Island people good to know you’re also preparing.
Another way you can store rice and beans long term too is in half gallon Ball mason jars and using a vacuum sealer to suck the air out and seal the jars or by oven canning to seal the jars. If neither of those options are doable, just storing them in the jars closed tightly is fine, too. If you have issues with mice, the mice can't chew through the glass or metal lid, either. The virus isn't here in WV yet, but all the surrounding states have confirmed cases, so it's just a matter of time. I'm going shopping this morning to get some bulk supplies/food I need and some canning jars to can up a bunch of venison and free up freezer space, and hopefully find a good deal on bulk potatoes and can a bunch of them up, too.
Hi. Love your storage for rice! On what you were saying about Walmart charging now for buckets, I believe it was more so because customers were coming in demanding them and acting as if they were supposed to get them, even at times when there were none available. When it was a courtesy to the customer. They are now $2 at Sam's Club.
Hi! I love the name Homestead Heart, that suits you! So watching this I went to Lowes and they had 5 gallon food grade buckets for under $5 and a lid like the red but blue for under $3. Bay leaves I got from Krogers for $2 and I put 3 lbs of rice in it. I think it could do 4 lbs of white rice. Found out Parboiled rice stores well for a long time.
Thank you Homestead Heart for being apart of RU-vid University..Your 99 Knowledge is Priceless..New Subscriber ..Stay Safe Brothers and Sisters ✌🏽❤️ LAX D
I love, love love Homestead Heart...you have revitalized my spirit of living that I had in the 1960's...thank you for calling to mind how I used to live, in a way passed on from my grandmother...I have once again began working towards self sufficiency that had gradually disappeared while I was pursuing a career...again thanks...I must, however, suggest, as one who boycotts WalMart, could you speak their name less? I see them as the largest enemy of small family businesses...in my area they certainly changed our wonderful self sustaining way of life where businesses passed from mother/father to son/daughter, educated their children and grew their community. They replaced this way of life with low paying jobs, robbing the citizens of their self-pride and self-respect...just saying...advice from an old lady...
Thank you! Just called Walmart and am buying 4 buckets from bakery. Would never have thought of that before! Whew! I’m back! I got tons from Walmart and more free from Safeway! Thanks for the tip ❤️
I admire you for for this. And I love your story about not taking all that was on the shelf. I did that with baby formula. Pre-covid I always would pick up 7 cans of powdered formula for the month. I was in the store and they only had 6 cans. I only grabbed 2 because all I could think was a parent with a newborn needing some as well. I am definitely a subscriber on just 1 video 💕
Thank you! Thank you! I was so confused as to why I would need a mylar bag when I'm putting my rice in a food grade bucket. I am encouraged. Bless you!
Loving your channel ! We're literally eating rice I put up in food grade buckets from 8 yrs ago and I'm here to tell any naysayers...it tastes just like I opened a fresh bag that I bought today. I'm just hitting bottom on the oldest rice. My daughter got me free smaller buckets from Dairy Queen (in Canada) before their supplier switched to mylar bags for their fruit toppings. The lids have removable rubber gaskets so were easy to clean and disinfect. The buckets are just the right size to hold close to 10 lbs of rice and I can bring 1 bucket up at a time to use in the kitchen.
Good Day Sister HH, Thank you so much for sharing you are so right "Uncooked rice doesn't need to be refrigerated, and dry white rice, wild rice, jasmine rice, basmati rice, and arborio rice can last for years when stored unopened at room temperature. Again as Sister HH said, brown rice has a shorter shelf life, and only lasts 3 - 6 months when stored in the pantry. Keep up the good work Sis. Peace and Blessings
I use my Tidy Cats kitty litter buckets! Although Tidy Cats is a little bit more expensive, the return you can get from the buckets is priceless!! I have COVID right now and am HOOKED on you mam!!
I have been adding some activated charcoal (it is used in fish filters, and those little pods for coffee pot water reservoirs.) I rinse and dry the charcoal, put it in a spice bag, then put it in rice or beans. Activated charcoal is also used by doctors and vets to help absorb poisons in animals and people when they have ingested something poisonous.
I did mine this way before and had a mouse nibble a whole in the bucket. So I started dry oven canning all my dry goods. Haven't had any problem. No problems with mold, bugs, larvae or botulism. Dry oven canning shelf life is over 35 years. Love love love your channel. New subscriber.
Hi I really love your show I watch you all the time I wanted to share my rice saving tip with you not only works for rice but Flour Mill grits put it in a deep freezer I have rice 12 years old I just did a video where I cooked it with some of my canned beans and it's fluffy and white as if I just bought it and it's not in buckets I have it in a plastic bag down in a metal garbage can and it's been there 12 years and there's not one bug because I froze it it works with the flower grits cornmeal granola cereal when you freeze it for 5 days it killed all the micronesians on it
Wow! Thank you so much for sharing. My husband planted 4 bayberry bushes and every year I struggle to find a use for the leaves. Now, I will definitely add them to the food I've been gathering this past month. Bless you sister.
I had bought a lot of hamburger and canned it. I was lied to buy a manager and a couple workers saying they would have more 10 pound rolls on the next truck. Yesterday one of the managers that is honest with me said they won't have the 10 pound rolls till August and it is going to be around $44. Instead of around $22. I knew it and it will get worse. Go to pantries and buy as much can goods as you can,.
Been reading articles about the migrant workers (Tenn. Georgia)and how all or most have tested positive. They not in the field no food on the table. Am pragmatic we ain’t seen the worse yet, sorry to say. Prince Charles took to Twitter # pick for britain. Seems lots of food will be rotting in the field. Keep in mind our truckers are the ones who get the product to the stores, we have a second wave this fall and they become infected, product will be sitting on loading docks. Just thought I would share. What I have been reading is not being spoken by the media. Everyone stay healthy!
Gracie Here in US, college students made arrangements for the transport of milk to cheese makers, veggies to food banks, and meats to freezer storage. And truckers lined up to volunteer the deliveries. HORRORFYING TO SEE FOOD WASTED. The freezer warehouses used for harvest season are mostly empty right now, I have a friend that owned one for apples from all over New England , turned the temps down to freeze instead of crisp. They moved millions of pounds in a week. So none will go to waste. Used to be beef was hung and seasoned for months in cold storage, now it’s slaughtered and packaged. Making ppl FORGET it CAN be stored for months air hung at 35 degrees while it seasons to WONDERFUL! Make a post on this info, sent it out daily, it’ll get to who will organize this action in your country!!! It happened within a week of news of destroying goods to be exported and restaurants they were closed would be destroyed, we are not letting it happen. Farmers were greatful, truckers responded immediately, food banks made arrangements with freezer companies. And we are going to have a CHEEESE SURPLUS. Lol Oh, and our girl HERE, just showed us how to preserve the eggs! We are not going down! We are taking back the knowledge that modern technology has made obsolete. And WE ALLOWED it. No more! Our grandparents have all this knowledge, PROTECT THEM AT ALL COST! And let them retract the knowledge we have lost!
Thanks for reminding me to get some more rice for emergency purposes. I commend you for being considerate of other people. Great ideas you give us all. God bless and take care.
I love that you didn't buy all of the rice at the store and left some for the people behind you. You easily could have. But it shows you have a heart of gold
