Adventures in Food Planning

Having learned a lot from the first week of cooking for ourselves (all 21 of us), we entered into the second week with some wisdom in our pockets. We also got to see two sides of the food system during our day in New Denver - first transplanting onion sets at the lovely Lone Mule farm, then attempting a week's worth of shopping at Mountainberry Foods... the gas station grocery store. Thanks so much to Ryan, Nadine, Brenda, Victoria, Kate, and Isabel for embarking on that mission! The efforts were rewarded in the form of a cake and sorbet donation from the store owner, which went well with our campfire BBQ and nature readings.

Cooking group #2 also redeemed themselves from the pitfalls of breakfast quinoa with some home-made pizza to celebrate our last night at the Little Slocan Lodge. Tomorrow we'll be hitting the road, with our pantry packed up in rubbermaid containers. Goodbye Nalla's kitchen, hello Coleman stoves!
