What are “coffee-break preps”? What is coffee-break prepping? No, it’s not preparing for your next coffee break! It’s a single, discrete prep that you can do while you’re having a coffee break or lunch break. Everyone who has commitments, a family, a more-than-fulltime job, etc., struggles to find time to prep. A key to my philosophy is to make prepping easy for you. So I’m starting a new series called “Coffee-break Prepping.”
Coffee-Break Preps Series — What is It?
I’m creating a series of short tasks you can do, or preps you can take, that will give you meaningful progress in your preparedness. Some will be “stuff” focused, some skills-oriented, and others are just things to think about. Because of the time constraints involved with modern life, most of these coffee-break preps can be completed during your morning coffee or during your lunch break.
The coffee-break preps will help you quickly make progress in your prepping by giving you small, easily doable projects that make a meaningful difference in your preps.
The Details
Some of the topics that I’m thinking about include:
- Water Reconnaissance — 15 minutes to find an unlimited water supply
- Food Independence — Best sources for heirloom seeds
- Food Independence — Easiest & fastest crops to grow in containers & on your patio/deck
- Communications — The absolute easiest way to get started in Ham Radio, and how to pass your licensing exam on the first try.
- Pets in SHTF — I'm an animal lover so I have plenty of ideas for posts about pets.
