Yeeesss! Tell me about your dutch oven approach…preheat the pot in the fire, right? Parchment paper or no? How long total do you run your fire? Do you monitor temps or go by feel? So many questions!

Great pictures! I’m so anticipating their spring return, although easy to max out on the incessant calling…so cute and yet so very very constant

Really stoked about this trailer for going between bike and bus with cargo

There are also a few, more recent companion books that give a lot of historical context to both Melville and whaling, etc
