Dry Pack Cannery Update

I went to the dry pack cannery a couple of weeks ago and found out some interesting news. First, it is only open on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Then, you can go in any time on those two days, and do any amount of canning you want. No signing up, no waiting for your stake schedule, no leaving a message and not getting a call back for scheduling!! Just go there, fill out your paperwork, can, pay, and go home. It's fabulous! For a list of the items they carry, and pricing, go to http://www.providentliving.org/ and look it up. I know there are many of you who will be as excited as I am about this change. Let me know if you would like someone to go with you, if I'm not busy, I'd love to.
As comments have been coming in, there has been some additional information needed to get people to the correct place for the pricing information. Here is some information that hopefully will help. When you get into the www.providentliving.org website, scroll down a bit to the "family home storage" section and click on it. On the right hand side of the "family home storage" page is a list of things to look at. The one you want will say "home storage center order form", click on that. It will bring up the page with a list of which order form you want to look at at the bottom of the page. Also, on the bottom right, will be a place to pull up a print formatted order form. I hope that helps. Let me know if you need more info.

Bean Arithmetic

I found this information on the Prepare Today Newsletter blog, which is LDS based, that I thought would be helpful.

Bean Arithmetic(found here: http://www.centralbean.com/storeandsoak.html )
A pound of beans measures about 2 cups.
Beans triple in volume when soaked and cooked.
A cup of dry beans yields 3 cups cooked.
A pound of dry beans yields 6 cups cooked.
Use 3 cups of water per cup of dry beans for soaking.
Simmer each pound of beans 2 hours after soaking.
A pound of dry beans makes about 9 servings of baked beans.
A pound of dry beans makes about 12 servings of bean soup.
A one-pound can of cooked beans measures about 2 cups.
~~~~
(Using the above figures)Five (5) pounds of beans per month works out to roughly 10 cups of dry beans or 30 cups once they're cooked. Therefore, 5 pounds dry beans per month equals about 1 cup cooked beans per day (not per meal - per DAY).Beans can also be ground into flour to expand their versatility. One (1) #10 can holds between 5.2 and 5.5 pounds of beans.Twenty-five (25) pounds of grain per month works out to about 13 ounces of uncooked grain a day or roughly 2 cups uncooked. Using the chart below you can see that 1 cup of grain yields anywhere from 2.5 - 4 cups once cooked, depending on the grain.Four and a third (4 1/3) #10 cans hold just about 25 pounds of whole grain. However, rolled grains take up just a bit more than nine (9) #10 cans. Thinking outside the pan Don't overlook the idea of sprouting your whole grains to increase their taste variety and nutritional impact.

Bulk Potato Order

We are ordering Idaho Potatoes in bulk. These potatoes will be delivered straight from Idaho and are cleaned, sorted and packaged in a 50lb box for only $18.00. (They should last all winter, if stored in a cool, dry place.)

Orders are due by Monday, November 3rd. We prefer orders emailed to sunrisemeadows1@live.com, but Michelle Wallace will be accepting some from those of you who do not have computer access. Please give cash to Michelle by November 3rd. We will know the delivery date soon after the order is placed.

ALL ORDERS MUST BE PICKED UP ON DELIVERY DAY. If you can not pick them up, please make arrangements. (It is not fair to burden Michelle with countless potatoes for two long.)

Prescription Medications

Many people have asked how to have extra prescription meds. for a 72 hr. kit, when you aren't allowed to get even a few days of extra to have on hand. My suggestion is to get your prescription filled 3-4 days before you run out. Put the date on the bottle of the 3-4 days of meds. that you have left and put them in your kits. Do that each month for a few months, say 6 months. At the end of the 6 months, start taking the meds. from your kit each month, starting with the oldest dated ones. Meds. are usually good for up to a year, so you don't have to worry about them being bad after 6 months (please check with your pharmacist though to make sure, I'm not a doctor). If you do this, at the end of the 6 months you will have several days of medications to keep you going until you can get more. Keep it going though. Don't take any out without replacing them. I hope this helps.
