The NFC B-Day Chat Thread

[ronott1]

I got mine at a fair/show with a huge discount. I used it camping but was really skeptical about their claims for winter usage... Until we went without power for two weeks one winter. When I ran out of LP gas, I setup a rocket stove on the cast iron griddle top for my grill and pulled the oven out of the closet. It worked perfectly on my deck after I cleared the 6" of snow that was on the deck. My neighbor was really funny when she smelled the bread baking in it.

I am sold now!

I will add it to my list of things to get

The guy at home depot was perplexed... When he told me they were out of LP gas, my second choice was 24 fire bricks and a piece of duct tin... I learned early on how to fashion a rocket stove out of rocks (so no need to pack a stove), so using fire brick was easy.

Ron, This is great for those hot days or when you're camping. When I was younger I used to camp a lot, but sill like good food

My mom would sometimes make something similar our of a cardboard box and tinfoil for camping.
Go out and forage blueberries and then she'd bake muffuns mmm good memories

I can share a picture when I bake them! I am making two 13 inch pizzas

Pics would be great, but what I’d really like is the recipe!

Looks like things are finally going to get moving with the restaurant! All the paperwork is done, we can order stuff Tuesday to get a delivery truck on Friday. I'm going to be cooking and smoking like crazy all next weekend so we can open for customers on Tuesday, the 8th.

You all are invited for dinner!

Good Morning Friends

Congrats on getting the run fixed up Michelle

Love the elephant cookies DMC!

Diva I thought it was good luck if their trunks were facing a door?

Blooie .. love the story of how your mum handled the bills! Note to self: need to buy a lazy susan

Kelsey I hope the coop and run plans went well. Looking forward to the pics!

Debby great news about the restaurant opening!

Hubby has a cold which he has lovingly shared with me; he is coughing and hacking up a storm but I am only early stages at the moment, hopefully I will not get too bad. Also, fingers crossed FIL does not get it

Not a typical Sunday for me today because I do not have to do the housework which I did on Wednesday So, trip in to town for the big weekly grocery shop and home to water. Still tossing up whether to water the lawn .. we had some rain overnight but not enough but we have the chance of showers for the rest of the week. Of course, if I water the lawn, it will rain all week and if I do not water the lawn, it won’t rain I will decide when I get home. Other plans, rest and relax and try and not get too under the weather with this cold.

The boys lost the game but the umpiring left a lot to be desired and they did not give up so it was not an embarrassing thrashing.

Mixed emotions about your news, Debby! On one hand it’ll be nice to get the uncertainty off your back. Bon the other hand, that means you get to spend less time with us! Pick me up, Diva...you’ll need a guide and I’m volunteering!
