Here’s a very simple oven plan…
Don’t even think about attempting this project. You’ll shoot your eye out, kid.
English
philosopher Thomas Hobbes believed that men living in anarchy would lead
“solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short” lives. So as much as I’d enjoy
rebuilding civilization from piles of trash after an apocalypse, I’d first
worry about a way to send petrol-marauding punk rockers scrambling and make
infectious zombies take a dirt nap.
Homemade Energy Bars
Ingredients
- 1 cup raw honey (find a
good brand here)
- 1 cup + 2 tablespoons
peanut butter or other nut butter (learn how to make your own here)
- 1 cup organic
unrefined coconut oil (find a good brand here)
- 2½ teaspoons pure
vanilla extract (buy it here or learn to make it here)
- 2 eggs, preferably
from pastured hens
- 4½ cups oats (use organic whole rolled oats and soak according to instructions
below)
- 1 cup dried
cranberries, chopped (find organic dried cranberries here or substitute
another dried fruit of choice)
- 1 cup sprouted
sunflower seeds (find organic sprouted sunflower seeds here)
- 1 cup organic
unsweetened coconut flakes (find them here)
- 1 cup almonds, chopped
(find
organic almonds here or substitute another nut of choice)
- 10 oz. bag of soy-free
mini chocolate chips (we
use this brand)
- 1½ cups sprouted flour
(we use this kind)
- 2½ teaspoons ground
cinnamon (find it here)
- 1⅛ teaspoon baking
soda (find
natural baking soda here)
Directions
- Add oats to a large
bowl with 4½ cups warm water and ½ cup lemon juice. (Plain full fat yogurt, homemade kefir, or white vinegar can
also be used in place of lemon juice.) Allow oats to soak in water mixture
for at least 7 hours or overnight. When soaking is complete, drain off as
much excess liquid as possible.
- Beat together honey, nut
butter, coconut oil, vanilla and eggs in a BIG bowl.
- In another large bowl,
mix all remaining ingredients (including soaked oats) with a wooden spoon.
Add this mixture to ingredients that were beaten in the BIG bowl. Mix
well.
- Spread into a large
greased baking sheet with sides. Pat mixture down evenly with the back of
a wooden spoon or spatula.
- Bake at 325° for about
45 minutes or until light golden brown. Let sit for 20 minutes, then place
parchment paper over top and roll with a rolling
pin to compress.
- Allow to cool
completely, then cut into desired size, wrap, and freeze. Bars will also
keep in a sealed container at room temp for 1-2 weeks.
Whether you’re looking for a fast breakfast, a meal replacement on the trails, or a snack on the go, these are the perfect healthy alternative to store bought energy bars!

Super Hand Cleaner
I was splitting firewood and got pitch on my hands.
Usually I use hand cleaner, which doesn't work very well. Today I decided to
try rubbing alcohol. It worked great!

Five handy, unique uses for Chap Stick
Who would have thought that there would be so many
"uncommon" uses for such a common item? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XAhD0bakf_4
I purchased an inexpensive desk organizer tray
(from Wal-Mart) for the drawer in my bathroom vanity to hold hair elastics,
barrettes, nail clippers, emery boards, makeup, etc. This makes everything easy
to find and saves time and frustration.
