Nice to hear from you, Mango. We have a dehydrator but the only thing I've used it for is drying herbs. I think I will have to play with it some more. One thing I've thought about is using it to dry fruits and veggies for my parrots. I can't leave fresh produce in their cages all day, but I could leave dehydrated produce. I'll have to do some research. Anyway, I loved hearing about your camping success.

: Hi everyone,

: After what has been a very busy
: summer, I am really looking
: forward to getting into a routine
: again, and having more time to
: plan and prepare meals. I had a
: lot of adventures this summer,
: including going canoe camping for
: the first time! Thanks to my time
: on the program, I was able to plan
: good, hearty meals in advance that
: sustained me during all that
: activity. I used my dehydrator to
: make inexpensive camping food that
: cooked up really easily with just
: a bit of hot water. I even found
: some crispy cheese snacks that
: were light to carry and didn't
: need refrigeration. Yum!

: I want to wander back through the
: steps with a beginner's mind, so
: I'll be revisiting breakfast as of
: tomorrow! All 4 parts!
