Campfire Cooking (Some Yummy Recipes)
By Dennis R Weaver
It's almost picnic and camping time across most of North America. For that next trip into the woods or at the park, consider these treats—especially for the kids.
S'mores
This is every kid's favorite (including big kids). Simply put a marshmallow on a stick, roast it, and while it's still hot, slap it against a piece of chocolate bar and sandwich it between two graham crackers.
Banana Boats
Cut a banana lengthwise. Stud it with miniature marshmallows and chocolate chips. Wrap it in aluminum foil and set it on some coals to melt the chocolate and marshmallows. Eat it while it is still warm.
Cheesy Hot Dogs
Split the hot dogs lengthwise and roast on the grill. Turn them over, cover the split side with cheddar cheese, and grill skin side down.
Minute Pizzas
Split English muffins. Spread pizza sauce on them. Sprinkle them with mozzarella cheese, and place pepperoni slices on top. Place them on the grill to cook. Cover them with a can or pan to catch the heat and direct it onto the tops of the pizzas. You can also bake these in a Dutch oven.
Makeshift Pizza
To make Makeshift Pizza, you will need a frying pan as large as the pizzas you will make. Bake the pizza crusts the night before or purchase round pizza-crust bread from the store. Pack them in the frying pan to protect them from breaking. Bring along a can of tomato paste for each pizza and a mixture of Italian spices. Bring your favorite shredded cheeses—mostly mozzarella—and whatever pizza toppings you prefer. (You can find sliced pepperoni that does not have to be refrigerated in most grocery stores.)
When you are ready for lunch, build a small fire. A few one-inch diameter dead pine branches make the perfect fuel. Let

the coals burn down.
As the fire is burning down, spread the tomato paste on the crust in the pan, sprinkle with Italian seasonings, and prepare the pizza with the toppings. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil.
Scrape the coals away and nestle the pan down into the warm bed. If there is too much heat, the crust will burn. Place a hot stick or two on top of the foil. Let the hot bed warm the pizza through and until the cheese is melted. You may have to recharge the bed with reserved hot coals. When the cheese has melted and is bubbly, the pizza is ready.
Makeshift Pizza only works the first day out unless you have some way to keep the perishables cold. (A good snow bank will do.) And the ingredients are a little heavy to be packing far.

- I Want to Sit on My Rooster
It was only 12 hours ago, but it's so funny...It's like it just happened and I can hardly keep from laughing. Last night we ended up taking the kids to a movie. I wanted to see Princess Diaries 2, so we all ended up going. The boys weren't overly interested :-), but it was simply out of the question for Maegan and Mom to go alone! - Why Everyone Should Celebrate August 12th
Fifteen Years Ago today, August 12th, 1989, Wade and I got married. I've been excited about this coming day for a long time! I mean, really, how many people get to say they've been married this long - let alone LOVE it! I'm the luckiest woman in the whole world and I feel like celebrating. - How to Prevent Back To Homeschool Stress
Two years ago today, I was in the same place - getting ready for the new home school year. Except, 2 years ago, I didn't feel the way I do today. I can still remember how I felt. Not excited. Stressed. Worried. You see, the year I started to homeschool, I was excited. I couldn't wait to start. I bought my curriculum with enthusiasm. I could hardly wait to get it. In fact, I was ...
