Had a number of items back-ordered at Emergency Essentials a few weeks back...baking powder, butter powder, powdered cheese, and a few other things. They have since all been delivered a few at a time. Guess a lot people have been getting the message that it is time for preparing. Just glad we didn't put it off until now. I'm just adding to prep to be able to feed others.

Incidentally, the cousin's husband who was not impressed at my urging him to prepare back in January, is now scurrying to get things in order. They still don't seem to comprehend what a "year's supply" consist of...he was very proud of having bought 75 lbs of rice. This from one for whom rice is a real staple...even uses it to make the dog food for their two large dogs. I told him what the basic needs for storage are...line upon line, precept upon precept, I guess. In time, they are even going to come to know that the Lord's hand is in all of this.
