We tend to think of summer time as prime grilling time, but as we transition into fall we are still cooking outside, right? It’s time for tailgate parties, and for those of us who live along the coast, we can still have beach bonfires, and we always try to take a few fall camping trips, […]
Favorite Campfire Recipes
Is it just me, or are our appetites bigger when we are cooking over an open fire? We recently returned from our annual camping trip up near Lake Tahoe. Food that is cooked directly over an open campfire just seems to taste better, you know? So I thought I’d share a few of our favorite […]
Roasting cheesy herb potatoes in foil packets.
Today we’re making super easy and delicious roasted potatoes. So easy, in fact, that you only need some foil and a knife to cook with. (Which makes them a super great side dish while camping or grilling.) One of the very best things about this process is anything goes. As long as you have some […]

Roasted Starbursts around the campfire? What…?
We just got back from our annual camping trip at our favorite place in the world… One of the things we do there? Roast Starburst candies. I know it sounds super strange. I first heard about it from my friend, Xazmin a few years ago. She said they were wonderful and I didn’t believe […]

We’re going camping. We do a whole lotta ‘nuthin when we go. We relax, eat lots of good food, sit by the fire, play card games and just hang out. However, sometimes it is fun to create an activity for the little ones and this is just about the easiest thing ever: A paint chip […]
