Petroleum jelly makes a mess when hot out...ends up running out of the cotton/lint and getting on everything you don't want it to.
Just buy the Duraflame Firestart Cubes from Walmart.....they're like poor man's Wetfire.

I saw a video where the user made 3 different lint firestarters; soy oil, Vaseline and plain lint. Of the 3, soy burned hotter/faster, petroleum jelly longer. I wrapped mine in wax paper for some protection/as fuse, then to plastic containers

My wife had a side gig making scented soy candles (stopped when mason jars were unobtainable) and soy wax doesn't do well on hot days either. It has a pretty low melting point. They burn really clean, but sitting outside on a summer day would turn it to pudding consistency.

Was doing some background research on the weeds the chix were being allowed to munch - The Wife was concerned about toxicity. Considering that we've been weeding and tossing the greens into the run for years now, I figured they were safe. But I did the research anyway. Turns out the broad-leaf "weeds" are common plantains (not the banana-type,) and are edible, nutritious, and medicinal.
Sauteed some with onions and garlic in bacon renderings, then simmered in a splash of The Wife's leftover white wine until the liquid was reduced. Turned a dark emerald green. Mouth feel - "Industrial strength spinach." Taste is decent. Would definitely mix with some basil, blend, and pesto the hell out of something.

I think this set of keys for construction equipment could come in handy

I don't know if they still carry them, but Dollar Tree used to have a 5 pack of 5 hour candles for $1-1.25

That reminds me. I'm getting low on bar oil
I bought a bag of that soy wax from Amazon earlier this week. I did a little daddy day care this week with the kids and had them helping to make candles. I used some of their old broken crayons to color the wax. It turned a pretty mundane job into something they were willing to help with. I also made a few with some citronella drops in them. 20 candles put away now. Thanks kiddo’s!
2 things:
1) Keep the card that comes with it that illustrates each key and tells you what it fits
2) know where the battery kill switch is on the piece of equipment you plan to liberate post SHTF or all your keys won't help you at all.

Due to the price of meat no one was buying pork butts at giant. It went on that “Buy it today or we throw it away tomorrow 50% off sale”. I bought all 4 they had left. My smoker is gonna put in work.

Lol i have no life. 3rd kid showed up exactly at my busiest time of the year. Now wife is doing an excellent job caring for my new son while I’m taking care of my eldest two doing fun shit. Went on a Canoe trip the other day, took my 3/6 yr olds camping in green ridge, ATVed around my buddy’s farm picking black berries, F IPads!! Kids need to be outside!
Congratulations, we just had our fourth last week. My wife isn’t quite up to taking care of the two little ones on her own for days at a time yet, but I am looking forward to when she is back on her feet and I can do more than morning geocaching or pond fishing trips with my older two.
