Menu 9/30 to 10/05 Our menu for this week is going to be easy. I am still recovering from a cold and I appreciate y'all not giving up on me.  I will record as much as possible. I have scheduled a session for the Pullman Pan for next Tuesday. Today Leftover Lasagna. I keep two pieces out because I knew we would have them again. Obviously, I didn't take into account when I planned the same thing for Saturday. Antonia works part-time at a local grocery store as a courtesy clerk so she's working in the evenings and it's just me for dinner. Tuesday Tuesday is going to be our eat out the night with a coupon from Burger King... I know it's not good for you but this is the only night in a month we do this. Otherwise, we eat at home. Wednesday Pizza... Who isn't up for pizza in the middle of the week. Hello! Thursday I will be using the ground beef I canned up back in the winter. Friday Apps for Dinner. This is a fun idea I had for dinner a couple o...

Deluce Alavez went missing on September 16, 2019.  She is a cute little angel. I post her poster and video below. Remember, it's up to us to reunite these kids with their families. https://youtu.be/YJpiIibxUGE http://www.missingkids.org/poster/AMBER/30322/11509/screen

I love a good loaf of bread. The problem is getting is using regular bread for sandwiches. Doesn't really work that well. About a year ago I saw my girl Heather over at The Kneady Homesteader use a Pullman Pan. Okay, I was hooked as soon as she explained how the pan worked compared to a regular pan. The Pullman pan lets air circulate from the bottom which is why there are holes in the bottom of the pan. I am uploading a video reviewing the pan and as soon as I get rid of this cold I will make a loaf of bread in it. Of course, I will take y'all along. https://youtu.be/HL5L5HgnGbk

I know this sounds like a long shot but it has happened here before. Don't believe it! Never did I until the research I have done showed clearly. Executive order 6102 signed by President Roosevelt in 1933 made it illegal to "hoard gold" in any form. This order only applied to individuals like us. Not the bankers and/or government. Certainly not FDR's friends. They could hoard all the gold they wanted. Look at the repression of gold's value in the market over the last thirty or so years. In 1974 President Ford repealed that order which made it legal for citizens to have gold. Why not? Nixon put us on the oil standard. Of course, Saudi is now running out of oil because they have pumping it nonstop since the sixties. They never thought they could run out someday. Except some of them have thought about this. They didn't diversify their portfolios. Too Bad! Here is my theory: The price of gold and silver has purposely been suppressed. Now I know that I'm no...

 I just made it and it's cooling on the stovetop. It's divine. I love it, but I don't make it often.  Maybe twice a year. Or on birthdays. I will take you through the process of making the white sauce and red sauce with meat. I used ricotta and talked about my late grams (maternal grandmother). She uses to make a pan of lasagna that could feed a third world population with leftovers. They would have neighbors over and everyone would bring something special. One neighbor would bring bread, salad, side dishes and one neighbor would bring deserts. It was a community friend getting together for a meal after a days work. I wish I could have been alive during those days when communities would come together and share a meal. Talk to one another and watch out for each other's children. They didn't worry about predators. Grams would make a pan of lasagna that took up half of the middle of the table and garlic bread that was unbelievable. Of course, once garlic cheese bre...

Trump's speech at the United Nations was a joke. Here is why: Iran isn't the biggest contributor to terrorism. Washington DC is. You want to stop terrorism, dissolve the CIA. Terrorism will stop.  Iran isn't the most bloodthirsty state. Again that is Washington DC. They have spilled more blood in just the last 18 yrs than the communist governments of Russia and China combined. And if you count the blood DC has spilled since the Military complex came into existence, we could drown the communist governments in blood.  China isn't stealing Intellectual Materials. China and the tech companies made a deal in the 90s which China would provide disciplined abundant workforce in exchange for access to the technology that was being developed in the 90s. It was a fair exchange being that both sides had the option of walking away. So there is no theft. Russia and Iran were invited into Syria by the legal government of Syria. We invaded Syria. When you look at the technical ter...

Here is chapter two of Technocracy. Mr. Wood goes into detail about how the creators of the technology from the WW I felt so much guilt from how the technology was used during WW I to kill millions of people. Howard Scott was an engineer in the 1920s. During the 1930s he created Technocracy Inc. Below is the link to the page about Technocracy, Inc. I was surprised to see it still exist. Mr. Scott spent years at Columbia University as a resident teacher and innovator. He completed his study which he started in the early 1920s. After this free ride ended Mr. Scott lived with a kindred spirit named William Knight. It years for William Knight to finally break his association with Scott. At that point, he finally got Scott out of his life and off of his couch. Technocracy, Inc. https://www.technocracyinc.org/ The video will be at https://youtu.be/ns1fTe8cc3U later tonight.

I had a menu printed up and as I did this video I pretty much changed the whole week. Yeah! So it's going to be leftovers for today and tomorrow is grilled sandwiches. Tuesday Lasagna. Yum!!! Wednesday will be whatever we get to. Thursday will be Muffins for Breakfast convenience foods. I will be doing chocolate chip muffins. Friday will be chili with cornbread made in the cast iron pan. Saturday Burrito Casserole. I will record as much as possible. https://youtu.be/gvq5hE3j1RE

I am happy to say I am on the mend from the cold that knocked me for a loop. We have seen a lot happen this week. The UN started its yearly meeting.  The leader of Iran made it clear that he doesn't want US warships in his backyard.  One of the man guys in the Australian Parliament came to Washington to speak with Trump. They talked about everything but Julian Assange.  Okay, a quick recap. Julian Assange is an Australian citizen who received documents about war crimes being committed by our government which he received from Bradley Manning now Chelsea Manning.  Chelsae-Bradley is an American Citizen who took documents detailing war crimes committed by our lovely government and shared them with Wikileaks owned by Julian Assange. Julian has a history of exposing corruption in governments across the world.  He is currently in a British prison.  Putin has declared the possible end of capitalism in Russia. Russian Priest Who Signed Open Letter in Support of P...

Jennifer Parrish went missing on June 25 of this year. She was seventeen. The pictures on the poster were taken that day which is odd I will admit. Either way, let's bring Jennifer home to her family before Christmas. http://www.missingkids.org/poster/NCMC/1363171/1/screen https://youtu.be/3fTFWx2Id4w

I am going to try to get a schedule for recording going. This week there will be another breakfast convenience food with pancakes. Next week will be muffins. I don't know what kind yet.

My plan to make a Basic Income work doesn't include raising taxes. Rather it is shrinking the federal government. Seriously shrinking it to bare necessity. After all, we have to cut back on expenses and luxuries like going out for dinner even with a coupon. Let's go: Bring every soldier home no exception.  Close military bases overseas. The Constitutional creators meant for us to have open and positive relationships with other countries. However, we were not to interfere with their governmental affairs.  Eliminate the following offices. They are full of what Lenin called useless eaters: All the services they provide could be done better by local law enforcement. CIA FBI ATF DEA IRS Secret Services Merge the following branches of Military: Four is repetitive.  Marine - Army: They both specialize in ground warfare. Navy - Coast Guard: They both function on the water. They both do security and rescues. Air Force - Increase their training to include emergency...

I remember 9/11/01 very clearly. My late mother and I were on our way to Wal-Mart when ABC cut into the classic rock station I had the radio. Yes! I was that person that went into Wal-Mart chattering away about this crazy event that had just happened. We went back to the electronics department and the lady there let me put the radio on the station just then they announced that the South building had also been hit. 18 years later we know so much more about that day. There have been numerous engineers come out and call the governments bs about the narrative. Then there was building number 7 that wasn't harmed at all but still fell before the day was over. There is a mystery about the guys dancing on the roof of a van. The van it later came out belonged to a company affiliated with a foreign government's intelligence agency. Yesterday, 18 years later, a spying device which belonged to Israel's intelligence agency was found in the White House Presidental office. A foreign g...

This video was inspired by my daughter Ani (this a nickname she got from her maternal great-grandmother). She bought a bunch of asparagus last week and wanted to know how to cook it. This is only one way. The possibilities are endless. For this video, I used a Panzo seasoning and I cooked the asparagus for 25 minutes at 350.  You can get it in your local store in the Asian food aisle. I will include three processes just to get you started.  First, this recipe comes from Stay At Home Chef.   As the recipe says, it's how to roast asparagus. https://thestayathomechef.com/roasted-asparagus/ Second, Carlsbad Craving BAKED ASPARAGUS WITH PARMESAN   https://carlsbadcravings.com/baked-asparagus/  Third and final, from Natasha's Kitchen. Natasha did a casserole with asparagus as the star.   https://natashaskitchen.com/asparagus-casserole/?utm_medium=social&utm_source=pinterest&utm_campaign=tailwind_smartloop&utm_content=smartloop...

Okay! I have been meaning to do this product review for a while now and always end up doing something else. These hair ties are awesome... My daughter Ani has crazy thick hair. It gets really heavy in the summer and she spends half of the summer wondering if cutting her hair would be easier. We have tried every brand of hair ties known to women. They all failed. They get stretched out and thrown away. These hair ties are stronger and sturdier. I will leave a link to my video review and a link to the product.

Yesterday John Bolton was fired or he resigned. Who's gives a damn. Next sucker. Netanyahu has announced that after next week's election he will move to annex the West Bank's Jordan Valley. The first problem that stands out to me is "Jordan Valley". As in it's a part of Jordan. You know the sovereign country Jordan. Yes, that valley is a part of Jordan. This is should get interesting. Will Israel get ahead with it? Will Jordan, like Lebanon, push back? Or will they roll over and write welcome on their back? This promises to be interesting. I hope Jordan and Lebanon with team up with Syria and Iran to stop Israel. I don't mean missiles. I mean the power in numbers kind of approach. If there are more countries will to stand up to Isreal they will be less likely to do the annex. https://www.bitchute.com/video/Dtuy1PcXN0gK/

This is a simple and delicious recipe. I prefer it over the commercial version. 4-6 oz. cold coffee of your choice 2-3 scoops of vanilla ice cream 2 cookies of your choice Put everything in a blender and blend together.  Stop when the drink hits the thickness of your desire. https://youtu.be/qrtsh4w-h8s

I have had this book for a couple of years now. I have gotten busy reading other books like Animal Farm and 1984. I finally got to it. Patrick M. Wood wrote this book a few years ago. It's the result of years of research on technocracy and the implications of it. Along with the potential consequences. I just started it. The first chapter Mr. Wood gives a background look at technocracy. If you are wondering how far we are in it, keep coming back and we will find out together. Another futuristic book I have read over the last year is Brave New World by Adulus Huxly. Why is he important? Well, his brother Julian (or maybe Julus) was a member of the Fabin Society which Mr. Wood features in his first chapter. Brave New World was the result of Adulus and his brother spending hours talking over tea and biscuits.  It's a map of the future. I reviewed the book last year over on my Anarchy Land Blog where on Word Press.  I have a sneaky suspicion that Technocracy is going to be alon...

I have seen so many interesting and fun things being cooked on a waffle maker. I had to try it. Went with the Red Velvet Cake mix because I knew Antonia and I both like it. It was a guaranteed like. I do look forward to doing other things on my waffle maker. Below I will leave an example. RED VELVET WAFFLES WITH CREAM CHEESE GLAZE https://keviniscooking.com/red-velvet-waffles-with-cream-cheese-glaze/ There is just one example of the neat things being done on a waffle maker. I can't wait to try a quesadilla on it. https://www.bitchute.com/video/ENpeDIkYaXJU/

This is not a pleasant topic but it needs to be brought to light. Across the world, our sons are being sold as often as our daughters are. Not many people want to talk about it. I don't want to talk about, but we have to talk about this crime being committed against our sons. I don't have a son as those who know me personally know I have a daughter. However, friends of mine do have sons. The thought of something like what is in the article I will leave a link for, happening to one of these boys is horrifying. http://www.missingkids.org/blog/2019/post-update/boys-for-sale--too https://youtu.be/qbd61rYi3MQ

I recently came across information about how the wall is going to be funded. All the building improvements to our military bases will not get much needed and deserved schools. Don't our military families deserve the best of the best? I say they do. Our military families deserve to get the newest infrastructure buildings before any community gets them. These families sacrifice so much for us.  They send the loved ones off to foreign shores to fight wars that are started based on lies. The least we could do is give up a stupid wall that isn't going to accomplish anything except to trap us in. Here's where the money for Trump's border wall will come from https://www.cnbc.com/2019/02/15/heres-where-the-money-for-trumps-border-wall-will-come-from.html The next article I found shows how jobs are being lost by the tens of thousands. That was just August alone. I doubt it will change anytime soon.  As we have seen these tic-for-tac tariffs are driving up prices on any...

This is easier than you think. My favorite condiments tend to be homemade ketchup. The commercial brands are to vinegary. I like mustard, I just feel I could do better. A1 and Heniz 57 have always been favorites along with Worcestershire Sauce. Finding recipes for these items are easy now with the internet. I will include one each below with the link to my video.

This topic took me by surprise. As always I don't pre-plan my devotional videos. It's whatever gets laid upon my heart. I watched the new video by Tom Mills (widower of Andrea Mills) and it hit me, generosity. Throughout the Bible, we are instructed to be generous with others. I am not talking about the "generous" donations where you get a tax write off. I am talking about you have a huge bag of cans each worth $.10. You see someone who obvious needs the money far more than you, give to them. (https://www.biblestudytools.com/topical-verses/bible-verses-about-generosity) Luke 12:33 makes clear that we should assist those who are generous with others. I have been watching Tom Mills and I am surprised at the generosity that has been poured upon him and his children. If you are a man who has been through the same thing as Tom, please reach out to him and give the support he needs to get through this first holiday season without Andrea. Be generous with your experienc...

Do you ever watch these folks who take time and do videos on how to can up it items like Sloppy Joe Sauce and wonder, "do they actually eat it and if so how are they using it"? Here is your answer, yes we do use them. Granted we get busy canning stuff that we forget to stop and show how we use the items. I made Sloppy Joes last night and I decided to take y'all with me. Here is how I mixed everything together plus I have a video. Sloppy Joe 1 lb ground meat (your choice) 1 jar of Sloppy Joe Sauce Brown off meat as you usually would and drain if needed. Then simmer the meat and sauce together until your Sloppy Joe is to the thickness you desire. Remember you know what your family likes better than I do. Feel free to make the needed adjustments. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kspR2NfddcQ&feature=youtu.be

Here we go! School is back in session and our kids will be coming home starving. Here is a snack you can give them and know what is in it. You make the sauce go to my Canning Project video from yesterday I posted a recipe for pasta and pizza sauce you can put into cans or you can make one batch. Use your favorite dough. Roll it out so it will fit in a muffin pan or just roll it out flat. Put cheese and sauce on it (or reverse that order if you like Chicago deep-dish pizza). Bake for 10 mins at 350. I got 34 out of this batch. Flash freeze them if you have any left and then store them in your freezer. Canning Project Video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y3-4Y6mdjJ0 https://youtu.be/u8YcLQL1ufE

In 2016 I decided to vote for someone who could create full-time employment like people in this country once enjoyed. You know, the one job that could support a family of four. Two tax returns could cover the cost of a vacation every couple of years. I thought Trump was that candidate. Nope! Jobs, Jobs, Jobs. This is the first reason I won't vote for Trump again. As an entrepreneur, Trump should know how important it is the create meaningful and permanent full-time employment. With benefits such as full insurance (health, vision, dental, and mental). Instead, what we have gotten Hauwaii has canceled contracts which means people in California who are the definition of working poor. They are homeless in spite of working two-part time jobs if they are lucky enough to have one. Del-Monte is closing two planets. The cost of aluminum is going up. Also, the products to put in the can are going into a shortage.  Less Military Intervention. We have seen military intervention multiple rat...
