We also have a propane stove on which we do the majority of our cooking throughout the year. We burn wood from November through April using about 6 cords of wood. During that time Geralyn will often use the wood stove for cooking up stews and soups and such in a crock pot, but even then we use the propane stove for breakfast foods such as eggs or pancakes. Happy feast of St. Joseph the Worker!
I think I may do the same. I am getting a freezer delivered on Friday which I am going to put in the basement. I will also place the washing machine down there. I may even go nuts and get a clothes dryer but that may be a bit overboard,
I am guessing you're planning to buy meat directly from your neighbors. Which is a great idea since they are grass fed. I would buy everything I could from them.
Marcio called with his wife and eldest son who happens to be an electrician bless him. He says they can fix my electric just by putting in a new electric box, bless him. They all spoke in Portugese, bless them, I was wondering why I could not understand much. I apologised to the Senora that my house is such a dump which caused great laughter. The son is also going to put a new staircase into the basement from my living room which is incredible. To my huge relief they are going to give me a price before starting. My doors are nearly ready too. It is to rain the next few days so no more painting. I might ask Marcio about putting a driveway in if I have any ready money left. To my amazement Marcio and his son have no interest in football. They must be the only Brazilians on Earth to have no interest. Things seem to be moving forward with a sudden jolt, though I am uneasy about the quote for the work. Lovely to hear Portugese, the language of Our Lady of Fatima. It is not so different than Spanish and even more like Galego, which they speak in Galicia and which I am starting to get used to..
Paul's Apostleship is founded upon the unequivocal and direct calling by Christ; one may compare this to the direct calling of Peter: Acts 23: 15 And I said, ‘Who are you, Lord?’ And the Lord said, ‘I am Jesus whom you are persecuting. 16 But rise and stand upon your feet; for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to appoint you to serve and bear witness to the things in which you have seen me and to those in which I will appear to you... Luke 5: And Jesus said to Simon the fisherman, “Do not be afraid; henceforth you will be catching men.”
I would buy it all. Eggs, chicken, lamb, beef, pork.. etc. Plant produce too. Because you have a freezer, when they go to butcher anything, you can probably get away with storing a decent amount at a time. I have no doubt that the locals likely cut up and wrap their own meat too. But they don't do it every day, so having a freezer to store a bunch at a time will help with that. I would even be trying to get my hands on milk.
I will ask . It is very touching to see them herding their little flock of sheep and lambs on the tiny little roadway outside. A reminder of so many Marian apparitions. I just remember La Salette is not too far away. Another site on my to do list.
You'll also be helping them out because they get a better price from people buying direct. I am surprised no one has offered this to you yet. It's really wonderful to watch people living in harmony with the land. What we walk on every day.
Looks like HHS is the primary source for child trafficking in the US. RFK Jr. is exposing and eliminating it. https://x.com/boonecutler/status/1917845267694448673
Month of flowers has begun. Allegedly, all the corruption in the world today centers primarily around child trafficking in one form or another. All the players are in on it. The more it is exposed, the more there is to expose. But ultimately light works like disinfectant. So we should see the world get a lot better as this evil is eradicated. Prayers.
Now that this child trafficking has been exposed in the HHS, compromised Cardinals are likely rethinking their votes and making deals before they get sealed in. Because they know what is coming down the road if they don't. Which makes the vision of Bruno Cornacchiola all the more possible IMO. Also, according to the prophecy of Blessed Carlos Acutis' mother, all prophecy will be fulfilled once he is canonized. Well it has been already delayed once with the death of Pope Francis. If the Cardinals all get taken out in one foul swoop it would also seem like the end of the church. I don't know, but if prophecy is painting a picture, and current events are lining up with that. We could very well see the Papacy delayed.
https://spiritdaily.org/blog/75072-2/ This was in today’s Spirit Daily. I was very upset with this article but I read it to the end. Apparently, in Freemasonry, there is a secret. In this article it states that the secret is vampirizing children so as to live forever. Isn’t this part of the child trafficking practice? To obtain adrenochrome? It’s so horrific that I can’t dwell on it. But it seems to make sense with what RFK Jr. is saying. I will wait and see what comes out of this.
