Thanksgiving Bite!
I am still chuckling over this month's elephant! On a whim I went to Pinterest and typed in "Thanksgiving elephant" without much hope of finding such a thing. Well, what do you know...look what popped up!! I admit I snorted a bit of Diet Coke through my nose...good thing I don't have a trunk...lol!
November...A Month for Gratitude
As Thanksgiving Day approaches, I just want to take the opportunity to thank each and every one of you that read and support this blog. Blogs are funny things...a cross between an online newsletter, a magazine article and a personal journal. It can be many things depending on who writes it and who their audience is. This year I have focused mainly on preparedness. I hope the monthly "Bites" have been helpful...especially if you and your family are just getting started. Some of the suggested storage goals may have been a little too much for the monthly budget to handle. I understand. The purpose is to make suggestions for the month and we each do as much as we can. Every little bite helps...right? So if the goal is 100 lbs. of wheat per person, even if you just get 100 lbs. total (or just 1 bucket) you are that much closer to completing your storage goals.
