Gifts to consider......

Over the next few weeks, I will try to post ideas for gifts and things to do this Christmas season with traditions and your Food Storage. Let's start with this one.....a gift of Food Storage from the Distribution Center from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day saints. I am going to list some of the items that you can purchase and wrap anyway you would like.

Here are things that you can purchase through LDS.org (online catalog):

Now, this is just one idea, but the LRH gave Dehydrator's to her grown children last year. Even though I paid much more, I found the same unit for $39.00 on the Walmart site. You could use the "site-t0-store" option and save on shipping. Here is the link in case any of you want to see it: http://www.walmart.com/Snackmaster-Express-Food-Dehydrator/ip/1120727

Consider purchasing either Food for long-term storage, or a device to make it possible. It will last long after the holiday is behind us. Give it some thought!
