    Renate-Bertodi: the alaska bush people now have snow, there was some sort of long black night, before and then the snows came.over night....8 months of winter, what do they do for flour, I wonder..I see the meat, the vegs but not flour? I bake a lot, do they maybe go to the city once a year and buy a huge quantity? When I lived in China, I used to make pancakes from the different flours, made from peas etc and laugh now, left over cold tea. I am not sure what they did to their flour, but not one ever failed me. My mum used to buy Canadian flour, because she said the English one was rubbish, and you couldn't make a proper Strudel with it, I found the same. someone said it was in the milling. -

alaskapat: Our Lives Don?t Come To Us
Our Lives Come From Us
    Cindy Sue Truman: Looked at your profile because you gave me a review. I adore your motto on life. It is so very TRUE! What part of Alaska do you live? My hubby and I are actively looking to leave CCC~ Crazy Communist California. Knocking around the idea to move to Alaska, the last free frontier. Getting older sucks and people here are very rude. My motto to move ( one day maybe baby ). Remove maybe and I insert NOW. I so appreciate your reviews.
    Blessings Always, Cindy Sue ~ -
    ArtistCarl: Finally got around to looking at your profile. I so agree. My personal saying is similar, I think. It is, " It is the striving that counts, not the having." -
    alaskapat: Thank you so much for commenting. I live in Anchorage, have lived in Alaska my entire life, loved visiting California though! Let me know if you decide to move here, and if you have any questions about life here, please feel free to ask! -
    nature rules: I truly enjoy your beautiful photos and the heart you put into them. It is obvious that your love your home and your family. And your motto is perfect. It is a pleasure sharing this site with you. I am so glad you have joined. sincerely, Becky -
