"Kellie's Forest Kitchen" Now that is a mountain café name for sure.
I came across your newest video of where someone stole your camper. I am so very sorry. I just subscribed to your channel for your story truly touched my heart.😔 Prayers over you guys and your adventures. Looking forward to watching your videos.🙏❤️❤️
This is the good slow life and something more people should experience:) As a Norwegian and European I was not aware that Arkansas could be like this and it is fun to watch the landscape and how you explore the area while living the simple, but good life:) An inspiration to those stuck in the cities and far away from nature! P.S That pizza looked just right as a snack! Cheers and be safe all of you exploring nature! Greetings from Northern Norway!
So jelly, Kelly makes homemade bread camping and I can't do that in the comfort of my kitchen 😫, lol! I love y'all 💘
It's beautiful. I'm amazed at all the different mts names and that you can remember all of them. Love the moss. Love hearing crickets and tree frog sounds. Never heard a coyote while camping.
Thank you so much!
Awesome cooking skills, in the wild, that amaze me...awesome photography, editing, always amazing...
YOU TWO ARE THE PERFECT PAIR!!!
I watched you using the hatchet on you firewood. I have two words, “Sven Saw”. I bought the small one in 1980 for backpacking. It the became a constant part of my ATV kit in 1987 and has been there since.
Arkansas a treasure indeed as well as domelife. God bless y'all.
It was the summer of 1965. I had a summer job with the Arkansas Highway Department down in Southwest Arkansas along with 4 or 5 other high school guys. The bulk of our job was to hand clear brush where the tractors couldn’t mow. One day we were eating lunch under a bridge where there was some shade and I felt something scratch my leg just above my sock. I reached down and felt what I thought was a stick, but when I tried to pull it out of my pant leg, it pulled back. I jerked it out and was holding a tarantula by one of its legs. I must have yelled or made a lot of commotion, because all the other boys looked in my direction just about the time I threw the tarantula. It must have been a site to see a bunch of teenagers dancing around, shaking their legs and checking up their pants legs just in case my tarantula had friends. After we settled down we looked for the tarantula but we never found it. I imagine we scared that tarantula almost as bad as it scared us.
I love seeing these comments from people other than Arkansans enjoying Arkansas through your videos. Just curious, are you making any plans to visit the Ozark-St.Francis National Forest. We live close and visit the area often. It's beautiful 💚
That pizza looks so good. I will try it on my next camping trip. Thanks for sharing. Great job!
Kelly something you might try is to dice up a small green apple and add to your onion mix to give it even more flavor. N Joy little one
Pro vs cons about your tent, just donated my 1 room tent and our 3 tent is more than we need most times. Good luck on getting your wheels back soon. Thank you
Now that it is getting colder, I'd love to know where Cody got that snazzy jacket, and what pants he prefers to hike in. Thanks for keeping up with the great videos!
Jacket is from Marshall’s. Pants are wrangler form Walmart.
@@CodyandKellie Thanks!
Kelly, I LOVE your new knives!!!!! An excellent blade in the kitchen is an absolute pleasure! That pizza!!! Oooooh! When you get through living the nomad life, you should open a gourmet pizza joint and serve craft beers!!! Cody! So good to see you bending a pole now & then!!!! Great video. I am very familiar with the area where you are in this video and so glad to see you enjoying an area I am familiar with from a different perspective. THANK YOU!!!!
I just discovered Lake Sylvia. I had a great time there a few weeks ago!! Love it when you guys are in Little Rock!!
My grandma use to make banana pudding, my favorite
Amazing views!! Absolutely love y’all’s channel. I’ve camped at Albert Pike Campground (Not too far from your location) every year since I’ve been alive. Creek side campgrounds with tons of hiking trails. Also free to anyone.
Love your Channel. While watching the pizza making, I was thinking how much teamwork it takes to have a delicious meal. But the behind-the-scenes reality is that it takes just as much work to clean it up and pack it away. I used to do all of this when I was younger and if I didn't spend 2 well alright at least 1 day per week in the wilderness I felt short-changed. And it cost a lot of money to do these things. It finally got to the point where it made more sense to bring my own ready-made coffee and a sandwich and go on hikes, all of it the best time of my life. And it helps to have an adventurous girl, but I didn't only marathon runners in which I turned into hikers. Still a girl is better. It's Really hard to find one that is that Adventures. Thanks for the adventure.
Geez every time I watch your videos I gain fifteen pounds all that good looking food you guys make. Keep it coming I can work it off.
You guys, I am 56 years old - it’s been years since I tent camped! I had a heart attack a year ago (widowmaker) but I’m doing ok now. This makes me want to get OUT! So. . . I’m going to! Making plans, ordering equipment, life’s too short! See you on the other!
My understanding is that Damascus Steel is the type of fold that makes the blade.
I had a taste for Italian tonight. All day long my homemade spaghetti sauce was simmering in the crockpot. Thin spaghetti pasta (al dente, of course!), the delicious sauce, and topped with aged Parmesan cheese. It was good, but THEN I saw your pizza. You used a pesto sauce. That looked great. I have a jar of pesto that I've been looking for an excuse to open. Kudos on how amazingly well you use your Dutch oven. Tomatoes, garlic, onion, mushrooms, and bell pepper were my veggies for tonight. Dessert? An apple and cheddar cheese. Congratulations on your successful fishing expedition! I'm adding in a prayer for rainfall. I hope y'all have a good week.
A really glorious view. And that Mac and cheese!
You guys certainly live and cook like it's five 🌟🌟
12:22. I saw my first otter, bald eagle, armadillo, wild piglet (east Texas's actually), oriole, Cardinal and walking stick insect in Arkansas. What I didn't see was the copperhead that bit me. Luckily it was a small one and hit me sick so didn't penetrate much leaving me with brief swelling (2x) of my ankle and foot which turned black for a couple of days before returning to normal.
Nice views on the mountain, the pizza look awesome, made my first pizza in Dutch oven last weekend Camping, my wife said can we have another won tomorrow, of course I did Prime rib pizza. Love your channel.
The Unita mountains in Utah also run East/West.
It is literally the Pinnacle on steroids!! YESSSS!!!
Id love to see you Put out a cooking video!! Just a bunch of all your kick assome recipes. That would be great!!!
Hi guys I made the pasta dish and I add pancetta to it! Yum
Wow... i think i gained 5 lbs just by watching.... lol lol lol that looked good!!!!!
Awesome vid!!! Thanks for sharing...
The Uinta mountain range in Utah into Wyoming is the biggest and one of the only range’s to run from west to east in North America. I’ve hiked it many times. It’s tough.
Your food looks awesome! Great looking knives. Beautiful camping and hiking area. Thanks for sharing.
I’m glad Kellie didn’t break wind on the video
Another wonderful adventure! That Pizza looked Amazing!✨✨✨
Also, really looking forward to the cookbook!
I just love your cooking.
glad you are staying safe. another great job of videoing and framing and editing and transitions great filming of Kellie's cooking with appropriate close ups with attention to detail
I've seen the opposite view, from the top of Forked Mountain 👍it's equally as epic👋
Beautiful! Love the extra moments of Zen.
The Uinta Mountain Range is an east to west running range.
Brandon you have it made !!!! Kelly sure can cook!!!! All some video !!!
I love how you start your days with an amazing breakfast plus you need the energy for your long hikes. Flatside Wilderness looks so beautiful. Maybe you guys will still be in Arkansas for Thanksgiving and you can see the colors of Fall. Coyotes wow !! The sound was kind of spooky and unique. I've heard Fort Desoto in Florida (I live in Florida)is full of raccoons and they are brazen. Lots of people camp there and raccoons know people equals food. Your love of Arkansas shines through your videos. I can't wait to see where you will camp next when you guys are back on the road.
That pizza looks yummy! I love pesto but am allergic to mushrooms so would have to leave that out.
He went "Howdy everyone" and for some reason i went 3 feet up in startle. Howdy guys!
OMG you're killin me man! I cant have wheat or yeast! UGGGGHHHHH!
Would love to see how you clean the cast iron skillet
Spectacular view!! Will definitely make that trek next time I'm in Arkansas. Those knives already on Christmas list!! Your recommendations are on point!! That walking stick💚cute!!!!
Hope you don't mind but something you might want to try......just let your dough rest for 5 minutes instead of rising for an hour. Still turns out the same. It works for me......enjoying your videos.....Happy Camping
Loved this one💚 Kelly you did very well... to do that hike without "breaking a wind"🤣. Very beautiful view...but you two made me a nervous wreck on those ledges😬 As always the food looked amazing and can't wait til next week😊
Cody, if you have your family’s save the dryer vent lent that makes great fire starter.
Lol,forest kitchen,I like that!
LOVE THE VIEW!! Worth the short hike up!!
Your "broken a wind" slip was really funny. Last time I broke wind they had to evacuate the entire park. 😵💫
Nice views! You've convinced me to check out more of Arkansas camping (and Missouri where I live). Grew up out west so I tend to head out there. Something has come up so I won't see you guys on the 6th😑. Have fun this weekend!
Great job as always guys.
Kelly I am dying laughing at your comment on breaking wind 😂, loved it
Can’t believe you didn’t hear coyotes when you were out west. Hear them almost every night here in New Mexico.
Reason I keep my 2000 cherookee xj.great view and pizza killie.
I feel ya. I love my FJ cruiser. Mine is 2013 with 120,000 miles. Been the best vehicle ever. Actually my 2nd one. Lol had a 2008. Bought both brand new. Of course the last year was 2014.😒😪 I agree with Kelly. Yep yard filled with our favorite vehicles. Husband says no🤣. Well hope kelly you get your baby back. 🥰 love your Videos and you both are truly amazing.
The amish butter I get is 3lbs and formed in a long roll.good stuff
I just ran across your channel ! Love it, amazing cook and enjoy watching you two !!
Beautiful views!! Great video!
Hey girl, add a steamed cubed bunch of Butternut Squash to that dish and you would kill for it...honestly try it! Just squish the squash with a potato masher and add to the noodles then your toppings. I use toasted Ciabatta bread crumbs, but you gotta process them into crumbs in a food processor. MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
The San Gabriel and San Bernardino mountains north and west of Los Angeles also run east to west.
The drought out west has affected the entire food chain. No spring plant growth means no bunnies means no food for coyote.
Those racoons in Arkansas are something else. They'll tear through anything to get to food.
that tarantula, that bit u, with missing legs...lets call that spider " speedy"..lol..
Awesome cooking Kelly.
I think you two are the best on UA-cam. I really enjoy watching you. Thank you.
“Don’t be afraid to come out here.” HA! I saw that tarantula in your last video. I am so NOT up for tarantulas in my pants, on my campsite or anywhere else even remotely near me. HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! I’d still like to go out there, though. I’d take the risk. View and pizza looked amazing. Thanks for the knife lead. :-)
Im here. I live in dequeen, ar. Love ur videos
Nice, I lived in DeQueen when I was a kid.
Hogs beat Miss St.😁😁 Nothing to do with camping, but what the heck.
Cool walking stick you managed to capture in your lens. 🐞 Were those small mouth bass you were catching? 🎣
Is the area y’all are camping in dispersed camping. It’s absolutely gorgeous.
Yes
Hello this is Mike and Shannon Turner from Stone county Mississippi and we will wondering how come you guys do not add the coordinates for these beautiful places that y'all visit so the rest of us can maybe find them a little bit easier thanks in advance Mike and Shannon
We thought about offering that to our patreons. To become a patreon on check out our page got patreon.com/domelife
We had raccoons steal everything out of are cooler. Learned our lesson. We had to cut short our camping trip as we didn’t have enough food.
Uinta mountains in Utah run East and West, From Utah to Colorado.
so good..... i love your vids...
That’s the sound of Bigfoot
That butter was most likely Amish butter…..that is how they sell their butter…..in big logs wrapped in parchment paper
I thought that was fettuccine that you pulled out of the baggie, and then I noticed that you lit them on fire 😂
I enjoy the nature facts you add to your videos, especially about geology.
Sorry about this indelicate question, but do you get tired of digging holes when you have to....or do you use a composting toilet?
Haven’t really thought about it. We just dig holes no toilet
@@CodyandKellie Cool beans!
Yummy
What kind of fire starter was that?
They where bundles we had to throw away the box so I can’t remember the exact name
Great video! Any update on the cookbook?
Talking about putting things up when you’re done with them. I know when I use my lil charcoal grill that thing doesn’t cool down for hours and hours. Just curious how you all cool off stoves, skillets, and such before you put them away in your vehicle?
Our cast iron Dutch oven is like that. We just leave it out all night .
My wife and I are heading to Arkansas for 4 days the weekend before Thanksgiving. We have a Promaster Camper Van. Can give us a couple of National Forest campgrounds with good hiking recomendations?
Thanks

great video, thanks for sharing..

You hit on exactly what my fear is critters coming around camp. I just camped for the first time last week and my mistake I left my trash out and had to scare away a racoon. I did feel like quite the badass for a moment but a bear is my absolute worst nightmare. Do you all change out of the clothes you wear during the day to eat and cook too?
I camped this spring on the north side of the Flatside Wilderness, closer to Forked Mountain, right next to a great swimming hole. The best 10 days of the last decade, beautiful area. Cody, so glad to see you got a real lid lifter for your Dutch oven, was always worried you were going to burn yourself with that knife. Kelly, how's the cookbook coming along? I'm ready to try out some of those recipes. Thanks for all the work you guys do.
We have a publishing company. Hopefully before Christmas
Awesome!!
I actually bought the lights you linked a while back, and they are great!
great video,, thanks for sharing..

We like your videos. Wanted to ask how do afford health insurance and car insurance not working, do y’all make enough from UA-cam to cover that cost. Just asking 😁
UA-cam covers that. We have a private policy for health ins. And car insurance is like $60
That looked like a million dollar mac and cheese!what do you call that?IS IT IN YOUR COOKBOOK?yum
Yes it will be
I’ve only recently ‘found you two’ and haven’t seen all the videos yet. I watched one this morning and your trailer was stolen …. Did you get it back as you had so much gear in it?
No we did not
@@CodyandKellie oh thats awful. So sorry to hear that.
Was there garlic butter on that pizza?looked yummy!
Would you like to test propane quick connect y splitter with two shutoff valve ?
What do you do about washing the dishes.

We have Coyote`s roaming my neighborhood in NW Arizona

I was wandering how ya'll make a living, I have never heard you mention it on your videos?
