I need a vegetarian pot luck recipe for a unique situation. Anyone have some ideas?

Posted: April 13th, 2011 | Author: | Filed under: Camping Recipes | Tags: , , | 5 Comments »

It has to feed A LOT of people, and it has to be very portable. Cooking it on site is not really an option, so it has to be able to sit in a cooler overnight and still be presentable the next day. We will be camping, and there will be no electricity. Any ideas would be appreciated, I just need some inspiration.


Do I have any right to be angry?

So I’m 23 years old and is renting my mom’s house here in edmonton. She does not live there. She spends winter in Arizona and summertime in Nova Scotia where she owns a campground. She only comes to Edmonton twice a year to do her running around and visiting. Her and I made a "business" arrangement that if I manage the house she would give me cheap rent on the house. She was very clear that it was a business transaction.

Now last night, she calls me up at 9 at night and starts a conversation asking whats new and blab blab… 5 mins into the conversation she tells me "Oh by the way we will be there in 2 hours!" –(We meaning as in her and her boyfriend and her 2 dogs!)

When she normally comes to Edmonton she usually stays in her 5th wheel that she parks in the drive way so she doesn’t stay in the house but they do take over the tv and leaves the house messy!… THIS TIME… they left their fifth wheel in Arizona so now they just expect to stay in the house and take over the house.

When they are here, it’s not as if they are invisible. They make a HUGE mess and all my bills like water and electricity go way up when they come because it’s no longer just me it’s 2 other ppl. I don’t make a lot of money! They take over my tv! They take over the kitchen! I have no privacy for my boyfriend and I! I have no alone time! They are always around!

To me, if it was anyone else and not her daughter who was renting the house she would have no right to barage and intrude in and reclaim the house as hers. We made a business deal. Meaning exchange for my rent money and managing the house… it is my space! Shouldn’t I invite her to stay with me rather than her expecting to stay there even though it’s her house??Do I have any right to be angry that she still feels entitled that the house is still hers to come and do whatever and whenever she wants even though I am renting it from her?

Good places to go camping in Florida?

Posted: December 19th, 2010 | Author: | Filed under: Camp Sites | Tags: , , , , , | 2 Comments »

I’ve been wanting to go camping forever. I have actually been camping but my friends I’m dragging along have never ACTUALLY camped before. They’ve stayed in a cabin with AC and electricity but we all know that’s not really camping. =) I’ve been trying to decide on a good site. And it’s for about Winter time. A place that has actual bathrooms within a short drive/walking distance would be preferable. Thanks!

Posted: October 12th, 2010 | Author: | Filed under: Camp Sites | Tags: , , , , | 2 Comments »

I’m looking for a place to go camping in Jan 2009 in Key West Florida.
Basically I’m looking for:
*Tent camping, water or electricity would be nice but not 100% needed.
*Doesn’t have to be beach front but the beach has to be within walking distance (1/4 mile)
*Would like to have a beach where we can relax, swim in the ocean, and have alcohol.
*A fire would be nice on the beach but it not needed.
Any recommendations?

Thank you!


What to pack for 10 day camping food if no firepit, no refrigeration and no electricity?

Posted: August 5th, 2010 | Author: | Filed under: Camping Recipes | Tags: , | 8 Comments »

Please note, lakes are not cold enough to refrigerate anything. I have icepack but will only last 1 or 2 days. No electricity available anywhere in those 10 days. Please help find what kind of food to bring to satisfy the food pyramid. thanks

I’m going camping with a friend of mine for 4 days and 3 nights. We’re camping in a tent, (with no electricity of course). I’ve figured everything out but the food situation. We’ll be bringing a portable grill and a cooler.
So any ideas on what foods to buy and bring?
… and also how to store it best so it doesn’t spoil.

What do you recommend for a campground in New England?

Posted: March 20th, 2010 | Author: | Filed under: Camp Sites | Tags: , , , , , , | 2 Comments »

Don’t have an RV so it needs to be one that offers cottages, a lake of course. A pool would be great.
website/links if possible
No tent. The airconditioner tips the tent over. Very uncomfortable to sleep like that. electricity please. with a pottie and a coffee maker.
