Excitement, advenutre

June 18th, 2008

Lord knows why, but I wandered into Urban Outfitters today. I spun around in a daze for about 8 minutes, then left, really excited that I’m going to camp on Friday. The next two months will be spent making giant pots of chili, wearing an apron, teaching kids about sourdough, and hanging out in the woods where my phone doesn’t work. Things are gonna be good.

If you have any suggestions about what I should do with the campers (I’m in charge of food-based education stuff), I’d love to know. Right now my notebooks are full of lists that include growing sprouts, making jam, baking bread, talking about the whole local/organic/etc debate, planting an herb garden, pickling eggs, having a Kraft Dinner vs Real Mac’n'Cheese cook-off, making ritz cracker “apple” pie…

    Chili sounds good! Whenever I have helped teach kids to cook, those kinds of one-dish dinners that they can really say they made from scratch make them go nuts. Plus, you know, getting youngins into spicy food is alway fun:)

    Have you made monkey bread with the kiddies? I’m always waiting for a foodfight with that stuff, but none yet:)
