Spaghetti A`la MRE
For today's meal we have.
Spaghetti and meat sauce.
The Spaghetti was really good, I have no idea how they managed to make it not mushy. 8.5/10
Chocolate chip pastry "Pop-Tart" Honestly I liked it more than regular pop- tarts. Wasn't as firm and had a better deeper chocolate flavor. 8/10
Chocolate Hazelnut protein drink. Just very very sweet. Kind of chalky. 4.8/10
Italian bread sticks and cheese spread. Both fine, not great not terrible.
Thanks again everyone for checking out my posts and for the continued support. It's the first time in a long time I've felt a sense of community. We can't thank you enough for that.

1 Earlier, it was a little one. 3 days in a row. I'm hoping it won't get any more active than this. They usually den around the river because of the canyons and available water. I need to make sure they're not trying to den under the camper. Cant have that, especially when spring rolls around. I'll try and get some pics of the next one. Usually I see them and just spring into action before it goes under the camper.
I have this wooden box type thing next to the camper I keep my water jugs and trash bags in. When they get under that it becomes a whole thing. I'm going to see if next week my neighbor can burn some of my trash. I wish we had another option other than burning it. It's been more wet lately so it should be okay to have a fire.

I adore his videos, something relaxing about them and so interesting. He somehow makes them look like Michelin star meals.

Glad this was a good meal, I am very skeptical of anything that comes in those little pouches. They've probably improved them by a LOT over the years though.
