Getting Back to the Outdoors
Earlier I set three goals for myself for my garden. The first of those three goals was to plan the organization of my garden better, taking better consideration into the light sunlight available in the garden. Between a combination of Spring coming late to Wisconsin this year and work commitments, I’ve been a little behind in getting my garden planted this year. However, this week we got the garden in the ground, so we should be fine for growing season.
I’m fascinated with the Dutch oven, and am trying to practice to get better at it. After demonstration and discussion on Dutch oven cooking during my Baloo training, I was inspired to continue the practicing. The Dutch oven is also a great tool for cooking in a back yard, and I hope to make it a compliment to more of our barbecues now that the weather is getting warmer and we spend more time outside. Plus, my Thanksgiving cornbread turned out well, so it was time to build from there. This past weekend, my boys and I made a pineapple upside down cake in our backyard.
