As if we didn’t already have enough means to cook food right? 😀 So I picked up one of these off of Amazon: I actually set out to purchase the smallest GSI pressure cooker available, but it turns out that is now somewhere around 2.9 Litres which is a little large for my purposes. Had a “Schnapps Idea” that I […]
Thursday morning we took Missy (our Shepherd), for a nice, long walk. There are a lot of amenities available at Santee Lakes, but walking Missy was the one we were interested in exploiting. They have a huge dog-walk all around most of the North end of Santee Lakes and over the years we have logged some pretty good miles on […]
Well, its about brunch time – we slept surprisingly well and by golly how about hash browns, breakfast sausage, and scrambled eggs cooked outside on the griddle? Heidi took her Mom to make an appointment, then they would be coming over to Santee Lakes so I asked that she text me when they were starting over and I would have […]
While we have had our (new to us) 2015 Travel Trailer since the middle of March, the only way to make darn sure everything works is to actually take it out and *use* it. I was able to get reservations at the Santee Lakes Park, Preserve, and Campground from 1 PM, April 22nd, 2019 – 12 PM, April 26th in […]
Please note: The work for this post actually occurred on April 11th, 2019. That big chunk of cold-rolled steel is pretty heavy, and needs to be protected. Additionally, outdoors you have to deal with wind, something new to my grilling experience. Ordered the new Hood from Amazon and it arrived the very next day. At about 1545, an Amazon delivery […]
I actually started this work on Sunday, April 7th, 2019 and am just now updating the old blog. Upon receiving our new griddle from Amazon, I was very excited, but knew it would be a spell before I would be able to actually start cooking on it. The first thing I had to locate was an old camp cooking table […]
Note: I actually ordered the griddle on the 5th of April, 2019, and am only now catching up and updating the old blog. As a young man in High School, I went to work as a cleanup boy for “B&H Burgers” in Norwalk, CA for the sole purpose of earning enough money to buy/maintain a car. Eventually I was able […]
Originally posted May 21, 2014 on old blog. Over the past couple of days have been enjoying our “new” grill. I actually purchased it from Sam’s Club last year on a special, and it has taken me this long to finally get around to assembling it. They are currently going for $349.00 at Sam’s Club, (old link – probably no longer […]
Originally posted May 20, 2014 on old blog This isn’t really a recipe, more of a pictorial review.. One of Heidi’s favorite outdoor dishes is Kielbasa Sausage cooked with bell pepper and onion. Our Son-in-law Jeff has perfected this dish over the last few years, but thought I would try my own twist, and revisit my old friends… The deep […]
