Good Mornin’ RVers and Campers…
It’s Friday WOOP WOOP!!!!

Who’s going camping this weekend? The weather will be wonderful for outdoor activities here in southeast Texas. I am so ready to get out in the warm sunshine and do some fishing and camping. I love to fish and camp with family and good friends. Ed and I also love meeting new campers and RVers, sitting around having good conversation is what it’s all about. I really enjoy exchanging great Crockpot and camping recipes with the new campers. You know Crockpot and campfire recipes are endless and so easy for us so we won’t miss one minute of the fun. Oh boy, now I’m getting excited about going to the lake.

So fellow campers let’s get to Friday’s “Gettin’ Crocked” recipe. Today we are doing dessert, yes dessert in your Crockpot. Easy as pie or cake… Enjoy and Happy Cooking!
