    Jiffy recipe

    I signed up for a free Jiffy recipe booklet online-sorry, don't remember the link-probably just their website. They had a few pages on Camping Foods but only one that involved coals, the rest sounded like kitchen made to feel/look like campfood. Here's the dessert they had: Fruit Cobbler-Each...

    Sun ovens

    That sounds like a wonderful craft/cooking thing to try on GS trips too. I didn't even know they existed, I'll have to ask around/pass it around to others in my family.

    Skunks

    I hold wery, wery still, as Elmer Fudd would say. When I camp with the girls I always keep a couple of bottles of tomato juice in the back of the van just in case.

    Campfire food projects?

    Grandpa--thanks so much! That sounds like a very easy and good to eat treat. I'm sure we'll enjoy it very much. MB-I'd peel off the wrapper when I cleaned them off, good point!

    Steve Jobs passed away.

    I couldn't believe it when I heard it on the news. I believe he's been sick for quite a while. He brought so much to the world and will be missed.

    Autumn Camping Dont's

    Do any of you think pre-teen girls would be okay? I'm sure I'd do fine but when it's younger kids I always worry. I guess I could take a parents poll to see if they'd even let their daughters go.

    Porta-potty

    Since I go camping with pre-teens a porta-potty is out of the question-not that I mind either. I would be careful where you dump the chemicals. You can probably get some good advice at your local camping store.

    Buying a used pop up

    Saying you're broke and selling something is a good marketing ploy-not to put down anyone who is actually going through this. We picked up some good equipment on Craigslist for my GS troop.

    Campfire food projects?

    I'm looking for things I can make with my GS troop, ages 9-12 around a fire other than s'mores. Does anyone have some easy, unusual ideas? They will be without their cell phones so I can't guarantee how long they'd be willing to sit.:tinysmile_grin_t:

    I'm Isabelle

    I'm a Girl Scout leader for kids in elementary school so I'm just looking at various sites trying to find things to interest them in the outdoors.

    Powerade 0

    I'm used to Gatorade or water. I sometimes buy those little crystal light things that you can mix with a bottle of water but I haven't tried Powerade. Let us know if it tastes any good.

    Red ants ate my tent?!

    Are you sure it was red ants and you didn't have something spilled on it while it was in storage? I've never heard of them eating their way through that kind of material.

    short hair!

    I always let mine grow and then chop off 3-4 inches and when I do no one seems to notice but me. You must have really had long hair for him to have made such a fuss. Will you be growing it back out?
