Test Cooking with Preps, Breakfast for Dinner, Part One

Thoughts on Budget Guns for Survival, Part Two

Who Would You Bug Out With?
A question on one of the boards I am on popped up, and I responded, which I rarely do these days. I’ve been kind of burned out of writing and been focusing on building more preps, losing some of my flab and getting into better shape, etc.… However, I thought this…
