Campfire French Toast

By

This little slice of heaven (all pun intended) is simply amaze-balls!  I make it regularly when we are camping for special occasions, and it makes a darn great alternative to offering kids Easter Eggs for breakfast on Easter Sunday.

It's simple to make and oh so delicious.

Ingredients:

1 Loaf of bread of your choice.

2-3 Large eggs beaten with a dash of milk

Golden Syrup, fruit and icing sugar for serving

Alfoil

Baking paper

Method:

Take sheet of al-foil and top with a sheet of baking paper. Place a whole loaf of bread in the centre and make a "boat" around the whole loaf make sure it isn't too tight you want the egg mixture to fall between the slices. Pour the beaten eggs over the whole loaf making sure to let it dribble between the bread slices.

Place another sheet of baking paper over the top, tucking into the boat and top with al-foil. Place near the campfire (not on it) and rotate every so often.

when fully done take the top of the boat off and coat with Golden syrup (maple syrup is also a great alternative), icing sugar and fruit. Serve immediately.

Down Sleeping Bags Low Down

Lets get the low down on down. If you have ever spent a night outdoors, either camping or hiking and you spent the whole night shivering and desperately awaiting the sun rise, then you understand the need for a quality sleeping bag with the right temperature rating. Down are the fine under-feathers that provide superior insulation and warmth in waterfowl (ducks, geese). Down has long been used as the epitome of warmth and luxury in beds, pillows, doonas, duvets, jackets and…. You guessed it, sleeping bags. Down as a filling is more expensive but has a better weight to warmth ration and can be packed down smaller than synthetic fills. And when cared for properly, a down sleeping bag can often last longer than synthetic sleeping bag. And price will vary greatly over the range of sleeping bags depending on the brand, quality, fill power and weight. Why can a Down Sleeping Bag last longer than a Synthetic Sleeping Bag? Down as a natural fibre is surprisingly resilient, and can with

4WD Drawer Bags

Most people think that the hardest part of hitting the road or any 4WD rebuild or re-vamp is going to be the vehicle. Speaking from experience that wasn't the case with us.  We knew exactly what we wanted for our Troopy, where to get it and how to install it, but what really eluded us was storage options. We knew that by installing a drawer system meant that we would need a storage solution that had flexibility, and we don’t just mean physically but essentially as well. The storage system would need to be versatile, to use with gear as well as food and clothing and preferably stackable to make the use of available space. Although we have a Troopy space is relative. We aren’t towing a van or camper and we also don’t have a rooftop tent, we sleep in the back, so everything needs to be well organised, stacked and stored.  We tried storage boxes, and these were good, but we couldn’t use all of our empty compartments on the front or the sides of the drawers, we tried other box styles as
