Survivalists and preppers sure love their acronyms. B.O.B’s, G.H.B.’s, B.O.V’s and B.O.L’s are a few that come to mind. In the spirit of Bug Out acronyms I’m going to coin, and i searched to see if anyone else had, a new one. Bug Out Games, B.O.G’s. I’ve been thinking about not just bug outs but Bug In’s, disasters, power outages and whatnot. Disasters can be boring! Sure there is a lot to do but there will still be downtime and you will not have the normal comforts you’re used to. The tried and true entertainment most seem to carry in their B.O.B’s seems to be one deck of cards to play solitaire. I don’t think that’s the best choice though. For one It assumes you will be alone, a bad idea in any of the situations I described. Secondly as much as I enjoy a game of solitaire it can get repetitive. So what are a few of my choices for B.O.G’s?
Why Is Gluten So Bad?
Gluten is the devil! It’s a vile insidious substance that should not exist in this world. I’m pretty sure it will be the cause of the impending zombie apocalypse. If you eat gluten you are worst than the worst harlot. Wait what is gluten and why is it so bad? I’ve been mostly Gluten free for years now. Partly by proxy of gluten being in wheat, wheat being full of carbs, and staying away from bread for that. When I read The Paleo Solution by Robb Wolf he stressed the inherent insidiousness of gluten. I read a few things and decided that it was bad. I forgot most of what I read though and only ended up with the important part, Gluten bad smash gluten! I realized I was advocating to friends and family to avoid gluten and my reason was “It’s bad”…not exactly the most convincing not scientific reason. So today I’ll share with you, and myself in the process, Why is gluten so bad and why you should avoid it. Stick with me as we dive down the gluten filled donut hole of doom my friends.
How To Make The Best Off Grid Coffee Maker For Cheap
Coffee, the glue that keeps modern society functional. Without our morning life blood dragging yourself into work becomes nearly impossible. What happens to the magical elixir when the power is out and the coffee pots won’t turn on? How do you make coffee without electricity? I’ve been thinking about how to make an off grid coffee maker for a few weeks now. Most the time I walk around in a semi-daze with projects going through my head. For this project, I had a list of things I needed my off grid coffee maker to accomplish. I wanted it to be simple to make, easy to operate, not be made of plastic, take any heating method available and not just produce any cup of coffee but the BEST cup. While I still have a few kinks to work out my trial run produced an amazing cup. Now let’s get to brewing!
Low Carb Egg Pizza
I’m back! The sickness I had last week that kicked my ass is over and I’m hungry! To cure my hunger I’m making an old favorite recipe of mine from before I went paleo. Before the switch to paleo I had been just eating low carb. Once, while I was craving pizza and didn’t want to break my diet I googled a recipe for a low carb pizza. The recipe I found many years ago turned out to be delicious. It hit the spot and became a regular meal for years before switching to paleo and giving up dairy. I had in fact forgotten all about egg pizza until a few weeks ago when an ex girlfriend of mine mentioned it and how much she loved it. Well I decided to make up one and show you how you can make egg pizza too. Egg pizza is the perfect dish to make for a special lady, chicks love egg pizza.
Stomach Virus Woes
Today will be a quick update, mostly to let everyone know I am alive and didn’t want to miss another day without writing something. I also gained some insight I want to share. Mostly though I think of all of you as my friends and friends whine to each other when they are sick. Tuesday morning after leaving from getting a hair cut I was heading home as fast as I could. I needed to get into the bathroom. I had felt fine until partway into getting a haircut and then my stomach started rumbling and churning. I paid and ran out the door dove into my car and sped away. I was thinking maybe it was a fluke and started getting ready for bed since I had plans for the night. A local Irish pub was going to have Guinness girls there with freebies and samples. Free Guinness, ’nuff said I was excited. Unfortunately my bathroom trip was not a fluke and there would be no free Guinness for me.
