  • We went camping in the desert for a few days hoping for warmth and sunshine and instead, it was cold and windy, but we still had so much fun! I cooked a bunch of camp stove meals, so this video is full of camping meal ideas for when you can't have a fire...

    I come find one of your videos when I need to relax. They never disappoint. I was so, so burnt out before I watched this. I feel so restored now. Your videos are so incredibly beautiful and moving. Thank you and Nick for all the effort you put into making them!! We really appreciate getting to watch them. (And LOL, Nick at the end!)

    The best thing about this video is that it clearly demonstrates you can get out, go car camping, and have a great time! All the solitude and quiet you want, all the exercise you need. Thanks for that.

    Love your videos! I was wondering if you could do a video about camping in the rain. Specifically tips for meals to eat/make when it's pouring rain (family of 6 and I know it's bound to happen eventually)

    Hi Amanda! Love your videos and quirkiness. You show how much fun you can have camping - even on solo trips. You had mentioned in a video a few years back to ask questions and I’m taking you up on that 😊 Is there a difference between a stashed bag and a reusable silicone bags from the dollar tree? How do you find dispersed camp sites? Also when you use the refillable propane tank for your stove is the hose to link them sold in Walmart or will I need to see a propane dealer or REI? I really appreciate your videos - I learn so much 👍🏼

    I make the hamburger helper dish all the time but I never thought about using shell pasta! I love that idea! It creates almost a stuffed shell with the meat stuffed inside! Brilliant!
    I’ll have to try that next time!👍

    Amanda, I'm loving your content ❤️ I love to camp. It's new to my husband and my daughter. I really enjoy finding ways to make food that they'll love while we are exploring. Thanks so much for making these videos and sharing goodies like the Notion app. Super happy!

    How do you store the meat?
    How do you keep the meat the right temp for days in a row? How do you keep the fresh veggies fresh?
    How do you store your trash so that animals-like bears & mountain lion types-leave you alone..?

    • @autumnwishes8364

      She has plenty of videos on her channel about food storage and the like. Highly recommend for you to check them out! I learned a lot from her videos when I was planning my first car camping trip back in the fall. 👍

    • @EveaGornall
      @EveaGornall 5 місяців тому +1

      You can organize your food by what you’re going to eat each day. Any meat or parishable items meant for day 2+ you freeze first and pack closer to the bottom so it stays colder longer. Having a separate smaller cooler for drinks also helps because then you don’t have to keep opening and closing the cooler meant to keep parishable items from going bad. Freeze waterbottles into solid blocks for the bottom of the cooler (as they melt, you can drink them!), fill the rest of the cooler with loose ice (put all your food in watertight packaging) then keep reusable ices packs and/or a wet towel over the top of your items before you close the cooler to help with evamporation. Hope these tips help!

    The snack bribe to get Nick out of the tent was hilarious! And all the mesh that new tents come with - ugh, drives me nuts in windy sandy environments! I am on the never ending search to find a tent with close-able mesh window and door sections - let me tell you, slim pickings out there. This was a GREAT video, by the way! Loved it!

    • @AKgrowngal
      @AKgrowngal 10 місяців тому

      Thanks for the Eureka suggestion! Very exciting to know there are some options out there! Exactly what I'm looking for, now if they would just make it in a 4 man size. 🤔 Dang! So close! I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one with such criteria for a tent. With all the super meshy options in the market, you'd think I was the only person looking for close-able mesh.

    Hi Amanda! I found you to up my camping game this summer and have watched several of your videos. I saw a couple knits here and there and wondered if you knitted them! I'm a knitter too and I'm just that much more excited to follow you knowing you're a camper AND a knitter! Your sweater is beautiful and I love the nature colors. Keep sharing!

I'm planning on camping there in the fall. Once again, your videos of land and food never disappoints and I have already decided that the camper hamburger helper recipe will be my dinner when I get back out tent camping next month!
