It is getting hotter outside, and the sun sets much later, the children are all on vacation. This means that perhaps the most favorite season has begun: summer. Summer means a lot of things to a lot of different people, but for me and my relatives, summer means its time to go camping! Where to? The mountains, high up in the thin air, away from any kind of civilization is where we go. What is it about camping and the mountains that is so pleasing and attracting? Could it be that all our cares are put aside for a few memorable moments as we reflect on the beauty of God’s creations?

There are so many fun and exciting activities that we can do in the mountains, which makes it hard to plan just what we will do. There is one activity though that we must always do; eating, and there is no better way to do that while camping then to …show more content…
I really can’t relate to you what it is that makes it so particular. Something about the refreshing air gives your food new flavor. Cooking with fire and charcoal give a flavor to food that cannot be duplicated. No matter how many outdoor cookouts you have attended, you have not experienced the greatest in outdoor cooking unless you have cooked your food in a dutch oven. A cast iron dutch oven used to cook your meal very slow creates a very desirable flavor. Dutch ovens are used for every type of food: lunch, dessert, and every other meal can be made. Meat, casserole, soup: you name it, if it’s edible, it can probably be cooked in a dutch oven. Since dutch ovens are stackable, a three or four course meal can be prepared all at the same
Traditionally most Elizabethan cooking was done over an open flame other cooking methods they use were: spin roasting, baking, boiling, smoking, salting and frying. Some things that were common for Elizabethan food recipes were that food and ingredient measurements were extremely basic. Quantities were not often specified temperature control was difficult because th...
The wilderness allows people to escape the crazy hectic lives they live daily and just unwind. Chris McCandless was “ unheeded, happy, and near to the wild heart,” throughout his soul-searching journey in the wilderness (Krakauer 31). Many people like Chris will experience different sensations in the serene wilderness, however it calls
...er use of charcoal grills. As a market leader, its success will very much depend on entire category preference. Thus, Kingsford must develop “offensive” strategy towards gas grilling.
During the Elizabethan Era, the foods that you ate were heavily based on what class of wealth you fit into! If you were part of the wealthy class, you would have a very large assortment of foods at your disposal to eat. If you were part of the middle class, you had some medley of foods to choose from. If you were part of the poor class, then you did not have near as many foods to choose from. However, if you were born into or part of the penury part of society, you had very few possible choices of food to pick from. The different classes in wealth ate very differently, back then (Sharnette.) The food that you ate, in the Elizabethan Era, heavily depended on whether you were wealthy or poor and was much different from the foods that we eat nowadays.
One method of the nomadic plains tribes for cooking was to use rawhide cooking vessels which came from the hump of the buffalo, staked over a mound of earth and left to dry in the shape of a bowl. The pot was put in a shallow hole near the fire, and then carefully selected stones that would not shatter easily would be put in the fire and transferred to the bowl with wood or bone tongs to heat the contents of the pot.
Backcountry camping is wonderful so we can get away from all the stresses of work, home and life in general. We leave conveniences and comforts but are not seeking to do things the hardest way possible.
When I was a kid, there were few things I looked forward to more than summer vacation. I couldn’t wait to laze around in the sun, sleep in and play all day. I got to spend time with my friends and my cousins at our family’s lake cabin up north. I had the opportunity to attend a Christian summer camp one year. I spent a week at Flaming Pine Youth Camp where we were not allowed to wear shorts, sleeveless shirts or walk to the beach without a cover up.
What is camping? To most people, it is perceived as a time to pack up the car,
Inhaling the wonderful smell of the burning wood from our campfire gives me pleasure. Combine that with the sound that the wood makes as it snaps and crackles, and I feel right as rain.
First, in order to understand baking, the history of bread will be discussed. (A Brief History of Baking).Thousands of years ago, In Mesopotamia wheat was discovered. Wheat is one of the earliest known food sources that was able to be stockpiled. If the seed becomes wet new sprouts would grow. With this discovery, it was found that if the seed was planted new seeds would also grow. At first the seed was likely to be chewed. In Mesopotamia and Egypt, these seeds and sprouts were enjoyed for many years. One day, it was accidently found that if wheat was pulverized it would make a paste. If this paste is set over fire it would make a flat unleavened bread. This flat bread would keep for several days. During these times this flat bread
Being invited to a friend’s house the other day, I began to get excited about the journey through the woods to their cabin. The cabin, nestled back in the woods overlooking a pond, is something that you would dream about. There is a winding trail that takes you back in the woods were their cabin sits. The cabin sits on top of a mountain raised up above everything, as if it was sitting on the clouds.
Dutch people are generally tall with light hair and eyes. They are also very house proud, meaning they keep their houses well-kept and tidy. Most people live in the cities, which are very well urbanized. Christianity is the main religion, split between Protestants and Catholic Faiths. Although, many people in Netherlands have no religion. Many Dutch spend their free time alone with family or tending their gardens. Cafes are also an important part of the Dutch lifestyle, with either a brown or white café. Brown cafes are older and cozier, while white cafes are modern. Dutch are also the main producers of cheese! They are very fond of cheese, with their main kinds being either Gouda or Edam. Six major types of cheese are produced by the Dutch and exported around the world. So without Netherlands, there would be no cheese. The arts have a large role in Dutch culture. Painting is a huge part of Dutch history and culture. The paintings produced in the Golden Age of Netherlands are cherished around the world. Music is also a part of culture the Dutch are fond of. Musicians are regularly playing on the streets, and many families have one or more members who play an instrument. “The Netherlands has produced many talented musicians. The Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra in Amsterdam and the Residentie Orchestra in The Hague are two of the finest ensembles in the world.” This just goes to show how arts has been a main part of Dutch life and
One of the most enjoyable things in life are road trips, particularly to the Colorado mountains. Getting to spend time with your family and friends, while being in a beautiful place, is irreplaceable. The fifteen-hour road trip may feel never-ending, but gazing at the mountains from afar makes life’s problems seem a little smaller and causes worries to become a thing of the past. Coming in contact with nature, untouched, is a surreal experience. My family trip to the Colorado mountains last summer was inspiring.
The fantastic mix for an outdoor kitchen is the right cooking area set up in a natural and inviting setting. After all, there is nothing quite like an open grill, especially if it has all of the needed pieces to make for a perfectly relaxing and inviting environment. If you are interested in transforming the appearance of your outdoor cooking space, then you have several things to consider before laying out the foundation.
I have had other hobbies such as agate hunting but with agate hunting I found myself getting frustrated because I could not find any agate’s and it eventually became more of a head ach trying to find them than they were worth. But with cooking I can always find what I am looking for and it is not frustrating like trying to finding little pebbles in the sand.
