I absolutely love to cook, or I guess I should say bake, so I am really excited that my dad just picked me up a couple of new cookbooks - ‘The Old Farmhouse Kitchen’ and ‘Romancing the West’ both by Frances A Gillette. All of the recipes look absolutely delicious and I cannot wait to start trying them out! I have already started going thru putting post-it notes on the first recipes that I want to try. Have to do something while we are snowed in!
Some people may not know what off-the-grid or off-grid means, so here it is --- The term off-the-grid or off-grid refers to living in a self-sufficient manner without reliance on one or more public utilities. Off-grid living is no longer a one room log cabin in the woods. It's energy independency. You don't have to rely on utility companies, you create your own power. Today, there are more than 180,000 off-grid homes in the US.
