Hey Friends, Today is Day 2 of your three-day pantry series, and this is the actual decluttering day. In this episode, I walk you through a simple, five-step process that makes even an overflowing pantry feel manageable. Decluttering the pantry can be a fun, relaxing, almost meditative project when you break it down into these steps. The 5 Steps From the Episode: 1. Space Planning If you did Day 1, your post-its are already on your shelves. If you didn't, Amber walks you through doing it quickly so you can start. 2. Duplicate Your Post-Its Write the same category labels again and place them on your counter, table, or floor. These become your landing zones as you pull items out. 3. Pull Everything Out Remove items shelf by shelf and place them under the correct duplicate post-it. Trash anything stale, open, or expired. Add new categories only if needed. 4. Clean the Shelves Wipe crumbs, sticky spills, and bottle drips. This takes a few minutes and makes the reset feel fresh and new. 5. Put Everything Back Now that everything is grouped, placing it back is fast and easy. Follow the original post-it map you planned yesterday.

Hey, it's James from SurvivalPunk.com, and this morning we're cranking out Part 2 of the Pantry Sauce series. Last time we hit the classics — brown gravy, white gravy, and curry — the stuff that keeps morale high when the pantry's looking rough. Today, we're going international and versatile — diving into mustard, tomato, teriyaki, satay, and cheese sauces, all made from long-term storage ingredients. You don't need fresh milk or fancy condiments — just shelf-stable pantry goods and a little DIY grit. Because bland rice and beans should never break your spirit.

Hey, it's James from SurvivalPunk.com, and this morning it's a frosty 29 degrees out — perfect weather for a hot meal. Today's episode is all about something that might not sound “tactical,” but will absolutely matter when food fatigue sets in: sauces and gravies from your prepper pantry. If you're living on beans, rice, and shelf-stable staples, flavor fatigue will crush morale faster than hunger. But the good news? With a few ingredients and basic know-how, you can turn bland into brilliant. Let's dive in.

In this episode, I take some inspiration from my brand new book of mundane magic rituals, A Witch at Home! In preparation for cozy season, I discuss an important ritual that's become a part of my lifestyle - regular audits of the pantry, freezer, and fridge! I discuss how this relates to magic and energetics, and how using what we have (whether it's that can of beans at the back of the pantry, or the soup at the back of the freezer, or the half-done lipstick in our makeup bag) can connect us deeply to the energy of gratitude and abundance. Yes, it's everyday stuff - but trust me, when we notice magic in the every day, our life can drastically change for the better.-Secrets of a Witch is a podcast by writer, artist, and spiritual teacher Sabrina Scott. She's been a practicing witch and medium for more than 25 years, and in this casual, mellow show she shares her secrets and musings about how to overcome pain and live a happy, magical life. She is the author of five books: Witchbody; Curse and Cure: Magic for Real Life; Rapeseed: Poetry and Writing About Life After Rape; Bodymagic: A Graphic Novel About Witchcraft, Trauma, and Healing; and A Witch at Home: 18 Rituals for Life, Love, and Healing.

For several years now, a woman in Saugus has made it her mission to help local residents who might be hungry. WBZ's Carl Stevens reports.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What do you do when you're over 50, comfortable in your career, and suddenly the world turns upside down? Meet Stacy Maly-Rodgers, who spent 20+ years in nonprofit management in St. Louis until COVID gave her the push she needed to tackle her bucket list - and on that list was becoming a pet groomer. Now she's found her calling as the go-to groomer for the dogs others won't touch at Three Tails Parlor and Pantry. In this episode, we are diving into midlife career pivots, working with difficult and anxious dogs, and how sometimes life's biggest disruptions lead to our most fulfilling chapters. You'll hear about:  ✅ Starting over at 50+ - why age can be your greatest asset  ✅ Fear Free certification and less restraint approach  ✅ Reading dog energy and adapting routines - doing what the dog allows, not forcing a checklist!  ✅ Communicating wins to pet parents and how that has changed everything Whether you're considering a midlife career change or looking to improve your approach with challenging dogs, Stacy proves that it's never too late to find your true calling - and that sometimes the most rewarding work requires patience, experience, and the willingness to do things differently. ABOUT STACY MALY-RODGERSLead Groomer & Services Manager at Three Tails Parlor and Pantry Stacy Maly-Rodgers discovered her true calling at age 50+ when she made the bold decision to leave her 20+ year career in nonprofit management and pursue pet grooming - something that had been on her bucket list for years. After COVID gave her the reflection time she needed, she started as a bather at PetSmart and worked her way through their academy program to become a certified groomer. Now serving as Lead Groomer and Services Manager at Three Tails Parlor and Pantry in Collinsville, Illinois, Stacy has found her specialty working with difficult and anxious dogs that other groomers struggle to handle. Her Fear Free certification and patient, low-restraint approach has transformed the grooming experience for dogs who previously required heavy sedation or couldn't be groomed at all. With four dogs at home and a lifelong love of animals, Stacy combines her management experience from her nonprofit career with her natural patience and intuitive understanding of canine behavior. Her approach focuses on building trust with both the dogs and their pet parents, celebrating small wins and progress rather than dwelling on challenges. Stacy's story proves that career changes at any age are possible, and that sometimes life's biggest disruptions lead to our most fulfilling chapters. She brings a unique perspective to the grooming industry, showing that maturity, patience, and life experience can be tremendous assets in working with animals. Transcript Show Notes

This week, Joanne welcomes Ellen Zachos, author of 11 books on plants, including her latest, Mythic Plants: Potions and Poisons from the Gardens of the Gods. About Ellen A Harvard graduate, Ellen's first career was on Broadway (Les Miz), but the gift of a peace lily on opening night opened her eyes to the wonderful world of plants. Ellen taught at the New York Botanical Garden for many years and also served as Coordinator of the Gardening Department in Continuing Ed, before moving to Santa Fe, NM. She was named a Great American Gardener by the Epcot Flower and Garden Festival. Her 11th book, Mythic Plants: Potions & Poisons from the Gardens of the Gods, was published this year. Inspiration & Research Grew from Ellen's Greek heritage and lifelong love of mythology and plants. Greek mythology felt personally significant; she wasn't drawn to Norse or Indian myths. Extensive research across historical texts; citations couldn't fit in the print book, but are available online. Plant Stories & Mythology Connections Nepenthe (Poppy): In Homer's Odyssey, Helen of Troy prepared Nepenthe—an "anti-sorrow" drink of wine and opium poppy. Calmed grief temporarily. Linnaeus later named the tropical pitcher plant Nepenthes after this myth, believing its beauty could lift sorrow. Moly (Snowdrop): Hermes gave Odysseus "Moly" to protect him from Circe's spells. Described as a plant with black roots and white flowers—likely the snowdrop (Galanthus). Contains galantamine, which counters hallucinations—aligning with the myth's antidote effect. Modern research explores galantamine for Alzheimer's treatment. Fig: Valued food in ancient Greece, consumed fresh or dried before refrigeration existed. Special laws governed fig harvesting; penalties for theft were severe. Ancient figs required complex pollination (caprification). Some myths surrounding figs are notably "saucy." Pine Tree: Associated with violent origin myths, but also practical uses. Pine nuts were a staple food; pine resin sealed wine vessels, the origin of Retsina wine. Modern Retsina has a milder pine flavour, enjoyed especially in Greek summer settings. Aconitum (Monkshood): Misunderstood as poisonous to touch—false. Dangerous only if ingested. Blooms beautifully when few others do; it is resistant to deer and rabbits. Ellen wishes for a "Plant Mythbusters" show to debunk misinformation about plant toxicity. Daffodil (Narcissus): Linked to the myth of Narcissus falling in love with his reflection. Also central to the Persephone story, Zeus created a daffodil to lure her before Hades abducted her. Explains the origin of winter and spring cycles through Demeter's grief and renewal. Themes & Insights Plants in Greek mythology were deeply symbolic, medicinal, and magical. Many ancient uses align with modern scientific knowledge. The book groups plants thematically into short, easy-to-read chapters, ideal for bedtime or book clubs. Appeals to gardeners, historians, herbalists, and mythology enthusiasts. Ellen's Life & Work Today Now based in Santa Fe with a small, fully edible garden. Enjoys discovering new drought-tolerant plants in a vastly different climate. Former rooftop gardener in New York City; designed and maintained terrace gardens. Also teaches and speaks across the U.S.—including the upcoming Herb Society of America Conference in Texas (April). Other popular books: How to Forage for Wild Foods Without Dying, Backyard Foraging, The Wildcrafted Cocktail, The Forager's Pantry. Advocates for safe, informed foraging and appreciation of wild edibles. Mythic Plants features beautiful botanical illustrations by Lisel Ashlock. Mythic Plants makes a great gift and is available on Amazon! Find Ellen Zachos on Instagram.
