In this episode: We enjoy some time at camp soaking in nature and each others company after which we tackle some off road terrain on our way to meet up with some friends down in the desert. I finally got the chance to cook our trout, which has been on Ice since we caught them the day before. I made lemon, garlic linguine with the grilled trout on top.
Nothing brings a family close together better than camping. The solitude with an absence of glowing screens and stressful schedules allow opportunities for conversation reminding us of why we love each other so much. Family camping truly is family therapy.
A wonderful forest location for time well spent with family and friends. Fishing, hiking and eating good food cooked over our trusty Firebox Stove.
I don't think it was a bird of prey.
You got this whole other half of a watermelon.
So let me show you something. So wood by itself doesn't just burn right away because look
in touch with the fire and it doesn't just start on fire. You have to leave the flame on it long
enough to get it hot so then that's when you have all three ingredients heat fuel and oxygen. If I
leave it there long enough then it will burn by itself because that smoke that's coming off of it
that is the fuel. So if you blow it out you see the fuel. So let's blow it out. That's all fuel
coming off of it but it doesn't come out of it until it gets hot.
What's inside your shelter? What kind of animals? A sheep. A sheep? Well a pig because these are the
sheep. And some chickens? Surprise! We're in the desert. We decided to come join some friends who
are camping down here. Sure. I'm always up for watermelon.
Get the water boiling for our linguine.
Shuni we found a smart thingy-do. Good job.
No no he just stages it.
Perfect. Just a little al dente because they're going to be sitting here waiting for the next
step. Let's let the butter begin. I'll just burn the butter wrapper. Go find some hot sauce.
A little bit of chives. A little bit of Italian parsley.
I'm going to put it close enough and it'll stay nice and warm. Put it right here.
Cover it up. It's a little bigger than my grill.
Wrong tool. Perfect. I just got to be careful not to drop it. Nice and crispy on the skin side.
Ready to try this Trevor? It looks amazing. Let's see if this piece is ready. Yeah I think that's
ready. Go ahead and taste it. It's good. Yeah it's good.
Okay let's just slide this back. Smells amazing. Put some fish on for Luke.
Skin side down. He likes just to gobble that fish up just by itself.
Yeah the lemon. Wow that's good.
He gets everything in his beard. That's a really good trout. Yeah it's delicious huh?
Yeah do you like it? It's delicious huh? Look at our children eating real food with garlic in it
and stuff. Claire tried the trout and she likes it. She's not usually a trout eater. She's not a
fish eater at all. Okay Luke's fish is ready babe. Okay I've got a plate right there for him.
Do you like fish Luke? Yep he loves it.
Is it good? Yeah it's really good.
I
would like to get some pies.
Ash, Kennel, Cocks, Old Fashioned Rhubarb Pie, so good, great breakfast.
