I really can't emphasize enough the importance of a 72-hour emergency food and water supply. In the event of an unexpected disaster and with the possibility of having to shelter in one's home, you really may not have time or the ability to go out and stock up on supplies before it is too late. And for any of you who have lived here for an extended period of time, you understand how quickly your neighborhood grocery store will run out of bread and milk, a phenomenon I may never understand.
To help make this process of stock-piling your three (or more!) day supply a little bit easier and a whole lot more fun, Molly and I will be hosting a home canning class on Saturday, March 28, from 10 AM - 1 PM at Friendship Trays. The class will include an overview of the processes involved in canning your own produce and food, a walk-through of canning a few fun and easy recipes, a delicious lunch provided by Friendship Trays, and all the corny jokes and wacky dance moves Molly and I can muster. I promise quite the good time, and it's our way of making emergency preparedness a little bit weirder and a lot more fun.

And because Molly and I can't make it through a day without singing Moulin Rouge tunes across the office, enjoy the infamous can can scene from one of our favorite movies. And as always, stay safe, y'all!
