resolutions? ~ backpacking ~ Amy

[Guest guest]

Your resolutions sound just fine to me. Each day is

a new begining, so i never understood those folks

that get themselves all hung-up on guilt if they fall

short one day. Just brush off your pants and get back

up, i say! *lol*

Now your backpacking trip sounds like fun; what a

great way to bring in the New Year by being out in

nature. Our new year's day was quite wet and cold

for such adventures. What sorts of food did you take

along to go with that bubbly?

Thanks! That's why I make the measurable so I can actually say I did it.

Well, usually I cook at home and dehydrate, but haven't stocked up on

anything since the big move out here, so I actually had to bring

packaged food. :-( However, it was pouring rain, and cold, when we

pitched the tent, and I wasn't hungry (having just eaten a bag of

gorp), so I tucked myself up in my sleeping bag. Awoke a few of hours

later to DH nudging me and opening the bubbly (Banfi Rosa Regale, a

beautiful deep pink, slightly frizzante wine). I had two sips and

went back to sleep, *lol*, what a partier I am.

 

SOme of my hiking staples are done black bean " lasagna " , corn chowder,

various bean & rice dishes...
