January 2011 Provident Living Challenges:
Do one of these by the February evening Relief Society meeting and get a prize!
- Count up your shelf-stable “sugar/honey/sweets” foods. Determine whether you have a three-months supply, which equals 25 pounds per person. Counting it all qualifies you to get the prize.
This food group includes white sugar, brown sugar, powdered sugar, honey, pancake syrup, corn syrup, jelly, jam, Koolaid or lemonade powder, Jello, soda pop, chocolate drink mix, hot cocoa mix, frosting, chocolate chips, etc. Anything that is mostly made of sugar/honey, and will keep on the shelf without refrigeration.
I expect every family would love to have their 3-month supply of this food group. Remember, if you have only wheat, beans and rice in your food storage, you may not starve to death, but you might wish you were dead. These sweets will make your food storage easier to eat.
2) Write down how many diapers, feminine hygiene products, paper towels, and rolls of toilet paper your family uses in a month. Then determine if you have a three-month supply. Keeping an accurate record qualifies you for the prize.
