When I first saw what Desiree had prepared for our campfire dinner at the cabin, I thought she had designs of serving popsicles as our entrée. Turns out, she had prepared marinated chicken on skewers. We cooked those, together with fresh corn, over our campfire for our dinner on an overnight stay at the cabin.
We
cooked and enjoyed our dinner in the perfect blue-sky calm of September. The
only sound reaching us in our narrow mountain valley was that of the nearby
creek murmuring as it flexed its silvery muscles while clearing a small
waterfall Desiree constructed from shale talus last year.
Desiree
has a way of transforming dinner into a beautiful, miniature adventure. This
dinner firmly qualifies for that.
