I believe hard times are coming for all of us, and if we prepare we will survive. We all need to be more self sufficient, and less dependent on government. The Prepper idea is good but most of us don't have the time, resource or skills to do it the proper way. I prepare the best way I can, even a little is better than nothing. Floods, hurricanes, earthquakes, tornados, plaques and many other things happen or will happen. Prepare as if you will never see another store or hospital again.

Lemon Drink

I love Lemons, especially with salt. I found a recipe for preserved or pickled Lemons and thought this would be a good way to keep them longer. It is so easy, takes about 3 months. The juice gets heavy like syrup and very salty. The pulp becomes very mushy. I like salty but maybe they are just a little too salty, so I found this recipe for Vietnamese lemon drink made with preserved lemons. I tried it changed it a bit, made my own taste and WOW I love it.
The glass is a small brandy glass with two slices preserved lemons, 1/2 cup water, one tablespoon sugar, two ice cubes. Adjust the sugar to your taste.

You can also leave out the water and sugar and add 7 up.
This seems like a good way to get lemon in your system when you can't keep running to the store for fruit.
