    experiment. In the most basic form, solar cooking can be done easily as long as you have decently strong sunlight for a few hours. The stronger your sunlight is of course, the easier your solar cooking will be. In the desert southwestern areas of the United States for example, you can literally just lay food out in direct sunlight in the summer and it will cook quickly for you.

I never exactly understood why, but I knew enough to know to enjoy my childhood while it lasted, which seemed endless at the time. As I grew older and entered new stages of my life, I was no longer told that childhood would be the best years of my life. In middle school, I was told that high school would be the best years, but by freshman year I began hearing that the best years are really in college.

    Good Ol’ Southern Food: The Ins and Outs of Preparing a Southern Feast There is just something about Southern Cooking, something about the women who’ve mastered it, and something about what it represents. A Southern Feast represents time spent in careful preparation and an almost entire region of people that didn’t get the memo about cholesterol.

    serving of banana pudding and five hush puppies and the order ended up costing just over seven dollars, which is a whole meal and a milkshake at Cookout.
