"I wish to urge again the importance of self-reliance on the part of every individual Church member and family. None of us knows when a catastrophe might strike. Sickness, injury, unemployment may affect any of us. We have a great welfare program with facilities for such things as grain storage in various areas. It is important that we do this. But the best place to have some food set aside is within our homes, together with a little money in savings. The best welfare program is our own welfare program. Five or six cans of wheat in the home are better than a bushel in the welfare granary." (President Gordon B. Hinckley)
This week I did more spring cleaning.
Prices no doubt on EVERYTHING will be going up.
Tippy Longstockings is shocked at the prices.
I encourage you to make do with what you have right now till things get better. Continue to put in your storage and really learn your skills. I don't think things are going to improve for a while.
I make sourdough pancakes...yummy for sure!

I made the recipe for sourdough starter using the recipe I already shared here on the blog.
I love the green grass, I love spring. Leaves are starting to come out on the peach tree.

As you saw the pictures of the sewing room, I used what I had. You would be surprised how many things you already have on hand that take a minute to think about what you have that could be used in a different way instead of running out to buy something.
Tippy Longstockings say she encourages you not to buy new toys, play with the ones you already have.
Just try to do the best you can.
Remember to make finding joy an everyday thing, especially now with things going on at this time.
Remember to be kind in all we do, it is so needed right now.
Missy says keep looking out for family and friends. Who is having a hard time? Be there for them, help to build them up and encourage others.
Tippy Longstockings says keep getting a little extra when you get groceries.
