This Little Light of Mine – EDC LED Keychain Flashlight Review

March 25, 2013 By Mike Lucero Leave a Comment

Keychain EDC

As I get older,  I’m noticing I’m having more and more trouble seeing in low light/odd light situations. Trying to open my husband’s car door with my keys in less than desirable light is frustrating to say the least (I’m not worthy enough to  have my own remote to his car – besides, we weren’t […]

Don’t be an Armchair Prepper

March 12, 2013 By Emily Mendel 4 Comments

Don't be that person who visits all the forums, reads all the blogs, collects all the free e-books yet never puts it to use. Don't find yourself unPREPared.

To everything there is a season. A time to plan, a time to harvest. A time to can, a time to eat. A time to prepare, a time to research. But never is there a time when you can’t be actively preparing, even if you can’t afford to buy anything. You know that guy who […]

Teaching Our Kids about Every Day Carry – EDC

March 3, 2013 By Tom Myles 13 Comments

Teach your kids about Every Day Carry (EDC). They can learn about what items they should be carrying every single day in their pockets, that just might save a life someday.

Every day Carry ( or EDC ) items aren’t just for gun totin’ survivalists in hunting vests or massive utility belts (though I’m sure my kids would LOVE to wear a massive utility belt!); they are also for Moms and children. It’s also not what we carry in our purses, bags or backpacks, but those things that […]

February 14, 2013 By Tom Myles 2 Comments

She tried it for you!! A Wise Company Freeze Dried Food Review by {Mom with a Prep}

We’re relatively new to preparedness and have never wanted to be that family with 10 years of freeze dried foods taking up 3 rooms of their house. We want to be self-sustaining, but do realize that it isn’t realistic now. Having a few months of freeze dried foods would be really smart, just in case. We’ve eyeballed […]

Options for lighting in an emergency situation

Are you prepared for the power to go out right this moment? Do you know where your flashlights are (or if they have power), where your long-burning candles are, or if you even have anything to light them with? Light can be the most important factor in a power outage when it’s dark to allow […]
