My inspiration for this dish came to me as I stared at the pantry today. I was starving and my braces had been worked on this morning. My teeth ache like crazy after an appointment with the Master of Pain (er, I mean my always charming Orthodontist….), so my goal was “little-if-any-chewing required” style. So [...]

A Sunny Sunday In Paradise
Posted in photos, Trip Reports, tagged hiking, Mt. Rainier, snowshoeing on January 18, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Western Washington is having a weather inversion – which has been “interesting” to say the least. Lets see……last month: snow, snow, snow, freezing temps, Pineapple Express that melted tons of snow and tons of rain, flooding and now the weather inversion that produces a smog like freezing fog at lower altitude. It has been below [...]

New for 2009 and just out, is the revamped version of the really popular GSI Soloist pot set. The new set is the GSI Pinnacle Soloist. The lid has been changed to polypropylene, the insulated mug/cup is now a semi opaque jewel like orange (it is downright cool), the pot is still hard-anodized aluminum, but [...]

I was in REI last week when I saw the Guyot Designs TapGuard hanging in the kitchen area. Having not seen it before I took a look a bit closer. It is designed to fit into most wide mouth drinking bottles – essentially the same top side structure of the SplashGuard that they make. (Which [...]

Pizza in the backcountry? Messy and time/fuel consuming it is, but ooh, it is worth it! Lets say this though: I wouldn’t do it on a long trip or where weight counted. But for a short trip, sure! I tried out PackitGourmet’s Roarin’ Campfire Pizza in the Just Veggin’ version.It comes with a blend of [...]
Update

Last week I wrote a blog on my frustrations with ingredients found in a brand of freeze-dried meals sold as ‘all natural’. I expressed my concerns/frustrations with the company through email later. They contacted me yesterday with a reply. I feel that my frustrations were listened to and answered as well. I have pulled that [...]
New Gear To Play With

I was out running errands when somehow I ended up in REI. Not sure how that happened I was puttering around, looking at the January clearance items. It is pretty obvious that people are not spending money like last year – the sale has been going on for a week nearly and most of the [...]
