Did I mention that the Ranger is a female? I've finished that volume and
I waiting for the sequel to appear on my Book Bub listings.

I finally got an order of wings w/no sauce. At 6 wing section for U$5.99
it was no bargain AFAIAC. Back to the 3 piece for U$5 or the Tuesday deal.

If I travelled more I might look into a motorhome and tow a small car
(think Smart or Mini) behins.
MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06
Title: Camping Seasoning Mix
Categories: Herbs, Condiments, Chilies
Yield: 25 Servings
1/3 c Salt
1 tb Paprika
1 tb Garlic Powder
2 ts Onion Powder
1/2 ts Cayenne
1/2 ts Pepper
Mix well and store in a double zip-lock bag or a good
screw-top container. I usually make up 2 or 3 combinations
when back-packing so that I have seasoning for meats, fish
or the ubiquitous curry.
Poster unknown - but, stolen for use by UDD who remembers
the days in the field on "maneuvers" when the guy with the
garlic salt was "king" and everybody's friend. Bv)=
