Pretty - spring is sprung I guess. The drive during spring break vacations (wife is teacher, two youngun's) between La Grange and Brenham was beautiful in past years, I imagine the spring rains this year have really got those parts really colorful.
This is a great time of year in south central Texas. With the recent rains, everything is really greening up fast.
Last year's drought really took a toll on everything and I wasn't sure what the bluebonnets would look like. They came out pretty good...along with the Indian paintbrush.
An expedient oxygen absorber for a 5 gallon storage container can be made by placing a golf ball size piece of steel wool and a tablespoon of salt inside a paper napkin and placing it in the container. The salt will absorb the residual moisture and the steel wool will naturally absorb the oxygen.
Preppin' Tips - Recipes
Make Your Own Electrolyte Beverage (Gatorade, Pedialyte, etc.)
To one quart of water add 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 8 teaspoons of granulated sugar. Thoroughly mix all ingredients together.
This will replace electrolytes lost by the body due to dehydration caused by diarrhea, vomiting, excessive sweating, etc. A package of Kool-Aid, Crystal Light, etc. may be added to enhance the flavor and color.
