Those packages of pre-sliced apples you can buy at store are great for a healthy snack on the go but the price can add up. Make your own by slicing apples, soak in cold water for 3-5 minutes, then soak in a lemon-lime carbonated soda (such as 7-up or sprite) for 3-5 minutes. Divide into snack size portions and store in Ziploc bags in the fridge. The lemon-lime soda will keep the apples from browning and make them last longer.
We ran out of gas a few weeks ago while we were cooking and had to use our stashed induction cooker. We have been using it ever since. We will try to see if it’s low on electricity. I am not too keen on using it all the time but the husband insists we try it out. I just realized we still need a gas stove because if ever the power goes out we have a back-up plan. This reminds me to get a maha mh-c808m charger for our rechargeable batteries. We are trying to go green in our own small ways in the house and we try to limit our usage of batteries (we have so many remote controls and wireless everything around the house). I was trying to stock our emergency preparedness kit during the impending typhoon Pablo and was reminded of all of these.
