Recipe of the Day or a
Healthy Diet Habit Tip of the Day

The month of September is National Disaster Preparedness Month and National Preparedness Month!

Having Car Emergency Kits full of emergency supplies for each of your vehicles is just smart! An emergency kit in your vehicle, is important to have in case of a natural disaster such as an earthquake, forest fire, or a flood. It is definitely needed during winter driving, if you live in the snow, or just in case of a car accident!

The month of September is National Disaster Preparedness Month and National Preparedness Month!

Find out more information about Car Emergency Kits and what type of supplies to have from Kerry's Healthy Diet Habits website!
