I'd rather be outside…
During my first three years out of high school, I spent several months each winter living in a tent.
One winter I did a solid three months, January-March with no days back in town.
The tents, usually 14×16 feet in size, made up the camps from which we cut survey lines or did geophysics for mineral exploration.
Since the camps were typically fly-in, with high costs for transporting gear, the weight and volume of our equipment was kept to a minimum.

The Right Way to Make KD
Kraft Dinner is a much maligned food product, loved by some and mocked by many. In my observation, a big part of the problem comes from the fact that often when people have tried it and not liked it, they made it wrong. Well, even a good steak can be cooked poorly and become almost unpalatable; the same is true with this fine Canadian food staple. So here is my attempt to get you to give KD another try, cooked the right way.
First of all, get the basic KD, not some of the many variations with different types of noodle and cheese mixes that Kraft has for some reason pumped out into the market. Why try to improve on perfection? And, make sure you are dealing with actual Kraft Dinner, not some other brand attempting to capitalize on the success of this product.
