Ramen Noodles as a Food Prep
Over the years, I am surprised I haven’t written about this. I saw the question posed elsewhere and thought I would take a few minutes to write about it… Countless other blogs have talked about this, but this is really the first time I am sitting down to think or write about it… The Ramen […]

Prepping, Moving, and Lots of Stuff. Protecting Your OPSEC
Well, after many years in the 1 – 1/2 bedroom apartment in Northern NJ, Ms. Prepper and I recently moved in together, and into a new home. Anyone that has accumulated any amount of stuff, knows that the mere act of packing your stuff and moving it can be a daunting task. In this prepper’s case, […]
