Vital records make-over
Some of our pages are getting a face lift, and we are adding a few NEW pages. If you have printed these pages I am So Sorry. I hope you like the NEW design and pages better.
They are coming soon. I will just replace them on the original post and also post a link to the updated sections here.
Vital records section 3
Section 3 is all about our homes.
If your rent you sould still fill this info out.
Just use renters insurance instead of homeowners insurance and so on.
The last page is for an inventory of your personal property. This is a must for insurance.
If you have not done this alredy, I highly recomend it.
*A great tip for your movie and music collection would be to take a picture of your collection and add a title and artist list with your picture. Then if something should happen you know exactly what you have.

Wheat Meat
Wheat meat
9 C. whole wheat flour
4 ½ C. tap water
Mix flour with water in a kitchenaid or other mixer and knead on low speed for 10 minutes. Allow to rest for 20-30 minutes. Pour additional tap water over the rested wheat mixture. Place your hands in the water and squeeze the dough until the water is white and starchy. Pour off the water and add more water and continue to squeeze the dough. Continue this practice until the bran and starch is removed and the water is clear.
Allow gluten to rest 10 minutes.
Press out gluten to a ½” thickness on a greased cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
Remove from cookie sheet and fold to fit into a large bag. Close bag and allow gluten to cool. This will soften the rough texture.
Tear cooled gluten into large pieces. Working in small batches, grind gluten by processing it in a food processor. This can also be done by using a hand or electric grinder. Gluten is now ready to season and use as you would hamburger.
Tex Mex Black Bean Casserole
2 C. cooked black beans or 1-15 oz. can of black beans, drained
2 C. browned hamburger or 2 C. ground gluten (wheat meat)
1-15oz. can of diced tomatoes with green chili peppers added, do not drain
1-15 oz. can of corn, drained
1-15 oz. can of corn, drained
Salt and pepper to taste
Other seasons if desired (chili powder, garlic, dried red pepper flakes)
2 C. shredded cheese, divided
Grease a 9 inch baking pan and set aside. Combine beans, hamburger or gluten, tomatoes with juice, corn and salt and pepper. Stir in one cup of the cheese. Pour mixture into baking pan. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes or until heated through. Makes 4 servings.
Note: The mixture is great for enchilada filling.
Scripture Stickers
As part of preparing our personal Ark we must remember to feed our heart and spirit too.
These are some really fun stickers you can put in your scriptures.
They are a great tool for personal scripture study and Fun too.
Just print them out on a 8 1/2"x11" Shipping Label and cut them out.
Challeng yourself to have personal and family scripture study.

Medication Take-Back Event
- Bountiful
555 South 200 West
2399 South Main St - Farmington
1316 North Highway 89 - Layton
1170 East Gentile - Syracuse
951 West 1700 South - Sunset
2353 North Main St
Why Should I Take the Time To Do This?
- Many drugs flushed down the toilet cannot be removed by the sewer treatment plant or septic system.
- These substances then get into our streams, rivers, lakes, groundwater and our soil and may cause harm to the environment.
- Abuse of prescription drugs, particularly painkillers, has increased among teenagers and young adults.
- More than half of people who abuse painkillers get the drugs from friends or relatives.
- Children and pets can find medicine in your home or in your trash.
- Drugs may be taken by accident, on purpose or illegally sold.
- You can prevent accidental poisoning and drug abuse.
What if I cannot go to the Medication Take-Back Event?
- You can find permanent community collection sites near you at http://www.useonlyasdirected.org/, and directions for safe disposal in your trash if there is no site near you. This website also lists other one-time Take-Back events occurring at different times and locations around the state.

Farmington City Council has declared April as Emergency Preparedness Month and has encouraged each of its citizens and business to become aware of preparedness. This year the cities of Farmington, Fruit Heights, and Kaysville are combining efforts to host a Tri-city Emergency Preparedness Fair
It will be held in Fruit Heights on Saturday, April 30th, from 10:00 am. ‘til 2:00 pm. Displays and booths will be in both the Westminster Presbyterian Church at 796 S. Mountain Road and across the street at the LDS church, 901 S. Mountain Road as well as outside – weather permitting.
Many informative booths are planned such as food, water and fuel storage along with demonstrations concerning different aspects of disaster readiness such as 72-hour kits and Sheltering in Place. Local Emergency Preparedness merchants will attend and provide preparedness items for sale.
Local emergency agencies will attend along with Life Flight and Davis County Search and Rescue.
Children will enjoy a special visit from the Jazz Bear at 11:00.

Vital Records Secion 2
This one will take some effort, but I can not stress enough, how important this section is.
If you do not want to make a special trip to the doctors or dentist for your records,
remember to get them at your next appointment.
Fill out your medical release form right away. I recommend that you make a few copies and have them available to babysitters, also keep a copy in your car in case you are ever in an accident.
Be sure to list important medical information like; the style and serial number of medical devices, such as pacemakers.

Now that we have finished section 1 and section 2 we are going to take a break while we work on putting all that info together. For the next little bit we will touch on some Preparedness info for water storage, sanitation, food storage and things of that nature.
Vital Records, Medical Release Form
It can be used in the event of an emergency
to allow emergency personnel to treat your minor children in your absence.
We will also put a copy of this form in our family binder to be used by babysitters.
It is important to fill this out right away and have it Notarized if required by your state.
Accidents happen, and it doesn't take a major event to find yourself in need of this form.
Lets hope we never need to use it.
