This quote rings true, especially when Mother Nature is involved.
“Sometimes you have to get knocked down lower than you have ever been to stand up taller than you ever were.”

How Much Is Too Much?
What do you use your Stockpile for?
I honestly use my stockpile every day! I use it for meal planning, everyday cooking, and keep enough on hand for a rainy day. No one wants to have to go to the store several times a week. It is nice to be prepared with grocery store staples right in the comfort of your own home, in addition to being prepared for any potential natural disasters. You can buy a little at a time or take advantage of stockpile sales like the one on right now at Year Zero Survival.
Top Tip: Rotate your stockpile, so that you are using a ‘First in, First used’ format.

Apocalyptic Dish Washing
by Guest Blogger OmegaMan
If you’ve prepared, you’ll hopefully have enough long term food and water supplies in an apocalyptic scenario. Ever wondered how you are going to clean your dishes after you eat with out wasting water?
In all the survival training manuals I have ever read, I have never seen this issue addressed. I know a perfect solution that will not waste your precious water supply but yet effectively clean your utensils and most anything else for that matter. Have you ever heard of Ammonium Chloride?
Probably not by that name. Or, you may have put it in your swimming pool as an algae control. But, most likely you know it by the popular brand name Lysol.
Ammonium chlorides in fact are so effective at sanitation that they are even used by the CDC in their employee wash down stations.
Also, did you know many bars use ammonium chloride compounds to sanitize bar glasses? Have you ever seen the dip and rinse techniques used by bartenders?
I often wondered what they were using, then asked. Much to my surprise one of the most common brands used is: Steramine.
Wow, talk about effective! – 150 tablets for roughly a $10 investment.
Each tablet sanitizes a gallon of wash water. What a great and inexpensive way to protect your family without the huge expense of spray cleaners, soaps and save on storage. All it takes is one minute to effectively destroy most pathogens. Just one minute that will save your precious water supply and may save your life.
