"BACK TO THE BASICS" - There is an inside joke surrounding this phrase, but I don't remember what it is. You can ask my daughter, Angie AKA, A Twisted Sister. Comment on her blog and ask her the inside scoop at "Angies Corny Crew" in my FAVORITE LINKS on the sidebar. Two other daughters have really cute and fun blogs too. You can see them at "A Flock of Ducks" and "Peter's Pumpkin Shell". My grandkids are cuter than ..... ANYONE'S! Of course, I speak collectively for my sibs too. More cute grandkids at "My Family".
Basic amounts for one person per year:
FIRST AND MOST IMPORTANT IS WATER! MOST OF YOUR STORAGE IS USELESS WITHOUT IT. YOU ALSO CAN'T SURVIVE WITHOUT IT.
These amounts are for an average woman. More for a man and less for a child. It should average out.
WHEAT: 300 pounds
POWDERED MILK: 100 pounds
SUGAR: 100 pounds
SALT: 5 pounds
This would provide a diet with approximately 2300 calories a day which is the recommended amount for an average 25 year old woman. I'm sure we could all get by with less though. Humans usually eat way more than their bodies actually require. AND DON'T FORGET THE TOILET PAPER! unless, of course, you have lots of old phone books hanging around. Watch for updates on this post.
