    I know. I'll wait. Her curiosity is bound to get the best of her sooner or later. When she asks I might just tell her I keep my henway in the old Greek urn.

    I'm here, gentlemen. :) I caught that when first posted.

    Keep in mind my youth was spent filled with relentlessly mischievous adults. I am familiar with both the henway and the Greek urn. I can identify a duckdo (which is similar to a wormdo, only louder ;)), and a hammerfore.


    You all know I'm curious to a fault, so there's a chance that you'll get me eventually... just not this time. Nice try. [batteye]

    If you were down here in partially sunny Florida, I could ask you to smell this cupcake... the icing smells funny... :)

    savindude, are you new to this stuff? I'm somewhat of a newbie myself. Even though I've been interested in prepping for a while, I didn't really start until a couple of months ago. Better late than never, right?

    Put little salt in the bag...works with flour and rice...no bugs

    I had to edit this, since I didn't explain...
    My grandparents used to empty the bag, then put two big, large spoonfuls of rice, than thin layer of salt...again two large spoons, layer of salt. Never, ever a bug...
    The spoons I'm referring to are those big deep large spoons for pouring soup...only even bigger...I don't know the name...
