    I just received homemade soap as a gift from a friend. I’m so happy to receive it. I heard about the strike this morning. I hope they come to an agreement soon. I noticed today at a local small chain discount store that they are very low on hygiene products for both men and women. I’ve never seen that before. Low on soaps, shampoos, razors, oral care. They did have a good amount of mouthwash. I’m going to review my preps to see if I have any holes.

    There is reports that most cities have 2 weeks worth of chemicals to treat our water. Most of it comes by rail. Now would be a good time to stock up on some water just in case. Then you won't need to boil everything.

    The nice thing about hair is that it grows back, mostly. I was too lazy to drag out the lawnmower, so I used the weed whacker to cut the grass. Then I dug up all the dandelions to dry the roots. Medicinal use. The government only goes after truckers, not railroad guys.

    Hi Toni - sorry to hear you have not been feeling well - praying for a swift recovery. The soap looks wonderful - I’m going to have to give it a try - maybe this winter when I’ve got more time. It has been a busy day for me - got cucumbers picked and made 12 jars of dills, and just in the process of making a triple batch of cucumber relish - my husbands favourite. There is more going on with our railroad and has been for the last few year - people just don’t realize. My husband retired from engineering when the shenanigans started and they are still going on. I wish they could get rid of Harrison who is running things, but the money people like him. They have been treating employees badly for years. We would not be surprised if the company collapses - they even treat customers badly.

    • @HerHomesteadSkills

    RAIL - THE ESSENTIAL SERVICE
    To understand just how much we rely on rail service, in our vast country, we must understand the inexplicable connection between FOOD & DIESLE FUEL. Diesel fuel powers all of the equipment that plants, harvest, and ships our foods to markets and processing centers. Diesel also powers the trucks, trains, and ships that deliver all of these foods to our grocery stores, all around the world. Without diesel fuel, billions of people would starve to death, let alone freeze or fry to death without shipments of oil & gas to heat or cool their homes.
    Now our rail system, here in Canada, is the quintessential service that Canada needs to survive, because we have neither the infrastructure nor manpower to ship everything by truck. In addition, because the Trudeau-Sing-Blanchette regime refuses to build oil pipelines, it is shipped via rail, which many people believe to be less safe than underground pipelines. And along with this oil, other essential chemicals are shipped by rail, like propane and chlorine, which are necessary for grain drying, heating, and water treatment. Not to mention that all of our resources, commodities like coal, minerals, and metals are shipped by rail...and, of course, all of our grains including various types of livestock.
    Railways are the life-blood of our Canadian economy. If you cut or stop their use, our economy begins to die, just like stopping the flow of blood in a person. Each day that the rail lines are not running, exponentially adds to the collapse of our economy. We cannot do without our railway service. It is the reason we became a successful nation, and, is the only way we can maintain our economy...such as it is. If you take away our railways, like abolishing diesel fuel, millions and millions of Canadians would die.
    This rail strike is far more important to our national well-being than you know...and the Trudeau-Sing regime is purposefully not intervening...because these globalists want our economy to collapse. Let's hope Poilievre sings a different tune...because his silence on this would place him in the same company as the Trudeau-Sing regime...globalists.

      if a kit, it is likely (although not definitely) a melt and pour soap kit, which is similar but not the same...it likely focuses more on the creative side and should be lots of fun!

    Bill looks so awful because of who he's married to 😄 I'm making slow headway organizing my spices and herbs. No idea why there were 8 containers each of chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. Transferred all to pint jars and vacuum sealed. Had to throw a couple out in plastic jars bc contents went rock hard. A tray of Big Jim Jalapeño peppers, and 3 trays of squash will go into freeze dryer tomorrow. I love these Big Jim peppers! They have just a hint of heat, and grow 4-5" long so they're perfect for stuffing with cream cheese, wrapping with bacon, and baking. The squash was cut into 2" wide by 1/4" thick strips - saw a recipe using squash instead of lasagna noodles. We haven't watched any of the DNC, can't risk throwing a skillet through the tv - lol. Didn't know about the RR strike! Hope it gets resolved quickly. You have the prettiest hair! Mine is blonde (with liberal silver) and too fine to do anything other than ponytail or loose bun. Meh.
