Items for the Field Kitchen

Knowing that you may be staying in a cabin with a small kitchen really helps. If you have been there you have an idea what to expect. If you haven't, here is a little list of things that can help. Whether you need them along the way before you arrive, at the cabin or just for a picnic by the pool, they are good things to have.
  • Wine/Bottle opener (of course)
  • A GOOD Piece of cutlery (if there is one available, often the ones available are really dull)
  • Crockpot (if you have room)
  • Small Cutting Board
  • Small travel cooler (for poolside picnics)
  • Travel Mugs
  • Ziplock Bags
  • Microplane grater
  • Salt & Pepper Grinders
  • Coffee or Tea
  • Sweetner - if you use it
  • Tee Lights (candles) - very nice touch Katharine
  • Book of matches or one of those fancy long handled grill lighters.
From Katharine, while we learn how to use this darn BLOG - "thingy."
  • Spices
  • Sturdy wine glasses that can be used on the bank of the river
  • Plastic table cloth
  • Napkins
  • Chicken bouillon or stock
