You've done your job for the day.  You've humped the proverbial boonies.  All your crew came back safe.

You walk into your hootch, and there's a big cardboard box with your name on it on your rack.  Your tentmates all have a little glint in their eye in anticipation of sharing in your good fortune.

What's in your optimal care package (nothing illegal or unshippable please).  Notes are being taken.

I have been thinking about the best way to answer this and truthfully there is no write or wrong answer. At this point it depends on the individual and location of said individual.

The only thing I could come up with after two days is either a knife or a scope... maybe a flashlight (All certain types).

At this point in the mission there are plenty of supplies, plenty of food, plenty of entertainment. So basically it would be on the individual that you were trying to support.

This is a touchy subject for me and I don't want to turn this thread into something about me so if you would like, feel free to ask about certain items and I will be able to give my opinion on each.

Sorry it took so long to answer this one,
Ray

No Pork Chops please...  The Spagetti is good though, so long as you pull out the chunks of fat.

A little trick...  Heat up the spaghetti and cheese, slit the spaghetti the long ways...  Add the cheese, crush all the crackers and add them, and add the hot sauce... tastes just like chewed up papparoni Pizza :)

I used to hate the turkey loaf until someone showed me how to sear it with the triox tabs.

That couldn't have been good for me...

OK.....to totally mess your thread (sorry).........try this

ROASTED BEAVER
Needed are:
  • One 25 to 30 lb beaver (save the tail for beaver-tail soup)
  • Two cups flour
  • One cup bacon drippings
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 3 or 4 bay leaves
  • 3 or 4 medium onions, chopped.
First, scoop up a beaver. Skin it and take it the skin your local trading post. It's as good as cash. After skinning the beaver, remove all fat. Cut into serving size pieces. Soak in salted water overnight. Rinse meat well in cold water and drain. Roll meat in flour. Brown in skillet with bacon drippings and season with salt and pepper. Place in roaster alternately with bay leaves and onions. Add a small amount of water to remaining drippings in skillet and pour over meat. Roast at 350 degrees for 2 and one half hours or until tender. Uncover and brown 15 minutes before serving. Goes great with a California Merlot.

Unless you like nekked beaver:dunno:




Enjoy the pleasure of life
