Just in Case, by Kathy Harrison

Just in Case, how to be self-sufficient when the unexpected happens. Kathy Harrison has written a book that is geared towards the person who is just getting into preparedness, and has done an excellent job of laying it all out for them. This book takes the reader step by step through the process of becoming aware of our natural ability to take care of ourselves, not just in time of need, but all the time.

I really like the O.A.R. system that she has devised Organize, Acquire, Rotate. This chapter of the book gives some great ideas for getting a pantry started and how to keep it organized as well as up to date. Mrs Harrison has some great ideas when it comes to how to store foods and an informative section on effects of not rotating that could teach some lessons to even experienced preppers.


The recipes and illustrations are top notch, it’s easy to tell that Mrs Harrison has practiced what she preaches many times over. I agree that eating what you store is the only way to go, and that means being able to cook food that everyone in the house will eat right from the pantry. Storing huge quantities of “survival food” is a waste.

I recommend this book Highly.
