Mudd Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 Hi folks! This will be my first challenge as an Adventurer! I used to be really into outdoor challenges. A highlight was canoeing the Mississippi River with a buddy of mine. That was 10 years ago now. At the time I had a regular but seasonal job. It's harder to do that with my current job, which also happens to be a pretty sedentary one. I'm brainstorming what kind of trip might still be doable for me. I really miss that aspect of that era of my life. To scratch that it for me, I think it needs to be something more ambitious than just "spend X amount of time outside" each week (though that might be good too). If nothing else, it should be prepping for when I can do a cool trip. Is anyone doing any cool hiking or camping this challenge? 5 Quote Link to comment
Stronkey Kong Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 This reminds me. I bought all this camping and hiking gear last fall. Never got organized to get out and camp but planned to use it this spring/summer, but I wound up switching to night shift before the holidays and now if I do go... How does camping work when you're nocturnal? I guess it'd be less hiking and more campfire and stargazing, which wouldn't be bad. Staying at a regular site would be difficult since checkout times are usually at noon. So I guess I"m limited to back country camping (which I'd prefer). Hmm... 5 Quote ===================================================================================================== --Stronkey Kong-- Link to comment

My husband is a keen canoeist, but has only been on the water a couple of times in the last couple of years. Our current plans to move involve moving near a canoe-friendly stretch of river so it will be much less of an Event to get him on the water, as while we live a stone’s throw from the Thames it’s not safe to canoe. He usually has to drive at least an hour, usually to Cambridge, to get somewhere decent to canoe with his less experienced friends. We’re still under some Lockdown restrictions, so camping is right out, but we will try to get some day hikes in this summer. Yesterday, we did an 8 mile trail near the South Downs in Kent (UK).

Sciread77 Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 Curses, I barbecued chicken last night but took no pictures. We did Cahokia Mounds off the Mississippi Saturday. All three kids (2, 5, and 7) climbed up enthusiastically. We’ve been taking neighborhood walks and are looking to plan camping outings with the lockdowns. They’re starting to life but increased infection is inevitable so we’re still staying physically isolated. 8 hours ago, Mudd said: This will be my first challenge as an Adventurer!

Last evening I seasoned some chicken breast strips with bread crumbs, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning and simmered them in olive oil.

Snarkyfishguts Posted June 15, 2020 Report Share Posted June 15, 2020 I made pasta with cheese sauce, and it was almost good. I used leftover cheeses so it was kinda super mild and the sauce split a little. But everyone loved it after I added sprinkle cheese 🤣. So next time, I’ll cook it at a lower temperature and plan to use more flavorful cheese. I love trying to perfect this sauce even though my guts hate me right now lol. 3 Quote Link to comment
Sylvaa Posted June 16, 2020 Report Share Posted June 16, 2020 Sylvaa's CSA crop of the week: Kohlrabi. I'd never cooked with kohlrabi. The taste reminded me a lot of a very subdued radish. The CSA gave me a latke recipe for it, but I wanted to try something a little more fresh (also, something that I didn't have to cook). So I made this: https://cookieandkate.com/crispy-apple-kohlrabi-salad-recipe/ . It turned out super tasty, although not super pretty for a picture. 5 Quote Sylvaa's BattleLog Sylvaa's Tracking Spreadsheet Link to comment

British bacon is like... well, it’s what we’d call “Canadian bacon” in the US, I suppose—more like slices of cured ham than little slivers of fatty meat XD 2 Quote Sometimes you have to wander to find your way home… 🇺🇸 Adventurer 🇬🇧 🌳🦉🌳 Epic Quest: Tales of Owlshire Link to comment
Ann of Owlshire Posted June 29, 2020 Report Share Posted June 29, 2020 My son is allergic to eggs, and I usually get around this by just not making things that need eggs. (Even if he’s not expected to eat it, I find the avoiding cross-contamination in the kitchen a headache.) But I was worried that by the time he (hopefully) grew out of the allergy that eggs might have too weird a texture for him and he’d balk, so I got some “Easy Egg,” a chickpea flour-based vegan substitute for scrambled “eggs” frittatas, quiche, etc. to try for texture purposes. (My husband was horrified.) Over the weekend I used it to make a vegan Spanish Omelette. It was... surprisingly tasty, if you thought of it as a chickpea/potato pie rather than as a thing that was supposed to be made of eggs. Even Mr reluctantly approved. Enting was unimpressed, but he’s in a mono-eating stage at the moment so I didn’t take it personally He did eat the bite I offered, but then he wandered off to play with his cars. 4 Quote Sometimes you have to wander to find your way home… 🇺🇸 Adventurer 🇬🇧 🌳🦉🌳 Epic Quest: Tales of Owlshire Link to comment

I'm a bit late/early because I'm not doing this challenge. I just logged on because I was doing the Virtual 5K and I wondered what my NF friends were up to. I'm with you in that just saying I'm going outside, or doing this amount of walking/running etc doesn't inspire me at all. What I do is organise a hike that just outside my comfort zone for some reason (ie solo, distance, terrain) and then use that as the incentive to get me in training - which seems much more compelling that just getting out to move. It can backfire om 2020 because I've booked food drops and a pickup for the Larapinta Trail (in Australia) but I'm feeling less confident about being able to do with with travel restrictions. Still it's getting me out for two mid-week walks and at least one longer hike on the weekend. 2 1 Quote Skywalker Progress woot: Skywalker's success Character Profile: Skywalker Blog: Just Get Moving Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it.
