I have a solid garden, save my tomato seeds, pepper seeds and cukes for replanting. Already got my pepper starts going for this year. I’m sitting in deer hunting heaven and regularly have squirrels and rabbits running through the yard. My family farm is 5 minutes away and they are getting 15 eggs a day. I have a se******n of firearms including a Mossberg AR chambered in .22 that has proven surprisingly accurate. I have an old well that still gives good water so I’m pretty much set.

An unnamed individual was bragging that his wife took a loaf of bread out of someone's grocery cart because none was on the shelf. STUPID! STUPID! STUPID! Then again, they are atheists, and they don't believe in God or karma.

Most of the baby boomers folks know how to make bread, biscuits, rolls, loaves. We can bake a cake, fix spaghetti, noodles, mac and cheese, pasta, even rice, and beans.

My dad made pan bread, and he didn't cook! (He'd be 86 if he was living!) Pan bread is liquid oil, milk or water, and self-rising flour stirred together and poured into a greased cake pan. The children loved it, and it pissed mom off that we'd rave over it. [Dad was head baker at a bakery.]

Dad would break it with his hands and pass chunks of the hot fresh bread to the kids. We'd smear butter and jam or honey over it and eat it with a glass of milk!

Hum, now that I think back, nothing else was on the menu. So, I think it was great that he made only having bread and milk for a meal fun for his kids!

I can make bread but they don’t have yeast in the store! Unleavened bread for us! Indian bread! Very good! Yum good!

Too cold here, still. Ag zone 6. 4500 feet above sea level. It can snow in June. Soon, though.

Short growing season unlike Florida where I grew up. We had two BIG gardens every year. I have pushed a garden plow many a mile.
