| Use Freezer Baskets In Coolers
|
 I bought some freezer baskets at a garage sale to use in my upright freezer. I had a couple left over and thought of a great idea for them. I cut the corners off and then I folded the ends up and I use them in my coolers for camping.

| Easy Potatoes for Camping or Cookouts
|
|
These are my favorite potatoes for the summer! My mom used to make them when we were little! I have found that when going camping or if I am going to be busy and will not have time later. Earlier in the day, I peel potatoes and cut in quarters, cook them some until they are just cooked a little way through. You can make as many potatoes as you want.
