Sooo... A whole bunch of things led one to another here... With Remembrance Day not shortly gone. The kerfuffle over the hockey guy getting fired, dinner at the Royal Canadian Legion, and being a history buff of sorts. I eventually ran across this site.
Along with this, I've been watching a series of you tube videos "Rationing in Briton" by In Range TV. Last winter we also watched a couple DVD video series "War Time Kitchen" and "Land Girls" This all kind of ties together, but a little off track at this moment.
Anyway, sent this link to Sweetie saying I though this was interesting from a prepper prospective.
Sweetie then saying this looks like a "Julia and Julia" type thing for this winter. That being trying most or all the recipes.
Sweetie being a bread baker, we have already tried a recipe for the "National Loaf" and found it quite good. Not everyday good from a 21st century outlook, but occasionally good none the less.
Of course one of the first recipes we talked about trying is #140 Canadian Bake, well.... just because... eh...
If anyone tries any of these, please post the number and results.

2019-11-17.........
#1.... National loaf... Sweetie is a bread baker.. My shadow shape is a testament to that...... So today she made two loafs of whole wheat bread from this... Quite good. I think the only 21st century concession she made was to use the Kitchen Aid mixer to do the work. We made this last year from a very similar recipe that was also good.
#28..... Cream of Parsnip Soup... We had the veggie on hand, so gave it a try. The only 21 century concession was she used her stick blender. Very good...

OH SNAP..... Forum won't let me add a picture.... growl.... Yeah I found that too, so I turned to IMGUR image hosting which isn't too painful to add links for direct display of images.
