Would I have made it as a pioneer?

I think so...if it wasn't for that indoor plumbing thing...& heat...& electricity. Love cooking over the fire even if we kept it simple this time by pre-cooking Sloppy Joes this time & heating here. Soup for veggie boy (Noodle Os- he eats the broth & noodles & his step sis ate the chicken). Breakfast also simple- cereal & fire toasted bagels. Tried this Starbucks instant coffee- straight up with water ok- 8 oz each of milk & water & cook over fire even better. We did a little cabin at a state park- never done the cabin thing before but really made for an easy in & out & comfy sleeping- just enough electricity for space heaters :D! Good sleep essential because one already rolled out for a lacrosse game while our sleeping beauties still slumber. A bonus is the park is 25 mins from home so we can shower there. Roughing it- I know...not sure if we camped or just had a glorified campfire with a slumber party! & did our part to support the state park by going through 5 bundles of $5 firewood (required to buy here + you can throw in the downed pieces you find). This was our first blended family camp out & won't be our last! Later I will post my quick & easy camping list for the working mom...the kids will just remember that you went, not what you didn't cook pioneer style.
