    Just an FYI, teriyaki sauce is super easy to make and very adjustable. The basic recipe is:
    3/4 cup soy sauce
    1/3 to 1/2 cup sugar
    2 of more cloves of garlic
    1/2 tsp ground ginger or 1 tsp fresh grated ginger
    1 to 2 tbsp rice vinegar
    1 to 2 tsp toasted sesame oil
    We got this recipe from my mother-in-law who was from Japan and most ingredients are based on personal preference. Honey can be substituted for the sugar and if a more Hawaiian taste is wanted, a couple of tbsp of pineapple juice can also be added. The original recipe also included a tsp of MSG but it isn't necessary for a wonderful sauce.

Her boyfriend is dying and so there isn't much money for them so they are not able to save. I will tell you that I was pleased to see that you had boxes of noodles. I had seen a few podcasts where they are canning there noodles and to tell the truth I am not able to afford that . I plan on watching more of your podcasts. I nust found you a few days ago.

    Looking forward to watching, just subscribed. Hi from Ireland. We don't get the array of products you get over there and unfortunately I don't have a pantry like yours - biggest regret now not putting in one when we were building!! I've managed to stock about 80lbs of flour, 30lb pasta and rice, have some tinned tuna/spam (I would not normally buy spam but if things get really bad then it'll be eaten) tinned fruit, tomatoes. I have some lentils, bulgur wheat, gluten free pasta (I'm gluten intolerant) beans are not plentiful here and come in very small bags but I do have canned black beans but only I eat them but if things got really bad they'd eat them if there was nothing else

    You may want to consider doing onion starts instead of onion sets to get bigger onions. Onion set bulbs are on their second year and are using energy to flower, so you may not get as big of bulbs.

      Definitely a couple of years. I don’t really plan on any of my home-canned foods staying on the shelf for longer than two years. That’s just the nature of gardening, preserving, and food storage. It’s a constant rotation.

      Adam Arzo, canned tomatoes are very acidic. My canned (tinned) tomato sauce went bad after 5 years because the acid ate through the metal can. However if you home can tomato products in glass jars, you should get many more years shelf life out of them.

      sorry, what you are describing are NOT Japanese beetles (do a bing search on what a Japanese beetle looks like). They have bright green heads and a copper- color lower body parts. What you are calling Japanese ladybugs are actually ASIAN lady bugs.
      The ladybug that is infamous for invading homes, is the multicolored Asian ladybug. This insect is not native to the United States.
      The ASAIN ladybugs are not harmful to humans/pets, nor are they poisonous. More a nuisance than anything.
      Another tidbit of information: "Unlike harmless NATIVE ladybugs, Asian lady beetles bite. They aren’t poisonous, but you will feel a little pinch
