He came to camp well prepared for a night in the great outdoors:
- Sleeping bag
- Cell phone
- 4 cans of "Dinty Moore" beef stew
- 1 orange hat
After realizing that he'd forgotten his can opener, he sifted through our gear until he found one. In the search, he uncovered a can of his favorite mystery meat, "Spam" I believe is it's proper name.
After he downed two cans of beef stew, he decided to top them off with a nice stove-roasted, meat pop.
Notice the ease with which Jake multi-tasks, texting while roasting meat on a stick.
If anyone would like the recipe, shoot me an email and I'll jot it down for you.
How come nobody told me that Trouty had a blog? Nice hat, Jr.!
ReplyDeleteWow Jake that spam looks a little Too mysterious. I think I'll pass on the meat pop recipe, but thanks for the offer. I'd hate to be his sleeping bag after eating that, but I'm sure he was nice and toasty.
ReplyDeleteIs that spam on that stick? It looks more like a pink marshmallow.. I would know, I devour them in bunches.
ReplyDeleteGrotto: a small cave,(usually with attractive features)
ReplyDeleteJust wondering...is this your grotto? Is Jake the attractive feature, or is it that beautiful stove?
Cant figure out why every one disses Spam? I love the stuff to be honest. I just dont have the courage to buy it. They give you funny looks at the store when you check out and you have spam in your cart. Ohhhhh (ding- ding) is that why trash in emails is called Spam? I just thought of that.
ReplyDeleteWell any way, I agree on the comment you made on my trick or treat blog. About Pauls costume. I too am getting a bit worred. :) Oh well... we all have quirks.
By the way has Jennifer said any thing about your hair at the tri? Im surprised if she hasnt. And tell her that I will be making her and apron soon. I have had orders galore but Im almost done and can get to hers soon. She cant complain about the fabric I choose though, since she has not picked out some fabric for it yet. Hope she likes bright colors :)
Oh ya one more thing,, how far away is the camp site? Ya mean there is cell service there? Holy cow! ya call that roughing it? Jakes hat is nice too.
ReplyDeleteA) Freddie . . . I have a confession, I love the potted meat with the lovely - oft-abused - name of "Spam", I think it's very tasty. That, coupled with the fact that I have ZERO shame, as evidenced by my hairdo at the triathlon, means one thing:
ReplyDeleteNext time I'm in your town I'll buy you all the Spam you want and I won't mind the funny looks I get for it. It will briefly take the attention off of my current - carefully rendered - coiffure. Which Jennifer isn't all that crazy about, to say the least.
B) We live on the very edge of the boondocks, in fact, the world record mule deer was taken no more than three miles from my house, we need not venture out of cell service to put ourselves in the hunt for big game.
C) Jennifer was dissapointed when I told her that you were at the triathlon, she really wished she'd made the trip, her dissapointment intensified when I made her aware that you had brought her apron and didn't leave it with me.
D) I can't wait to see my woman making me a sandwich while sporting the new apron, I'll blog about it certainly.
