Brainstormed about building and adding a cupola to my water shed and in the spring remove the water tank and substitute a woodstove and voila...a sugar shack

Mine was from an over 50 year plot....judging by the size of the maple trees and the neighborhood

Interesting read, I clicked on it because I keep giving the expanding horseradish here away....as far as sweetener and "beets"-I have to wonder what a splash of ground sugar beet would do in a recipe?

IF you define Prepper as one who prepares...guess I am one. Since 1999 and the computer scare I made my mind to collect things hand powered, solar, etc. Wood heat in garage with loft or trapper cabin would mean leaving the house but...a cut natural gas line or an accident on a major hwy could impact THE grocery store in town in 48 hours....being 25 miles plus from sources of cheap supplies adds an element. We are in the woods and can trap, hunt, snare...but it would be a change in lifestyle. Most friends tell me they would "bug-out" to come here...LOL and laugh when I show them a bug out bag. Next year means greenhouse, raised beds, chickens and hopefully a mini-cow. Getting prepared without being paranoid...yet
