Anons, I pop in here from time to time with tips and am always encouraging you to learn a new skill each day that makes you more self reliant. I just thought of an important item to add to your preps. Thermos bottles, the big ones. Hot water is so important but heating it takes time and fuel.. so having thermos’ ensures when you do heat water, you can have some later, saving you from having to heat later on. Plus there’s the psychological aspect of a comforting warm drink.
RN spouse and I use it for brewing a bunch of coffee then storing in thermos to tap into during the day..
