Adding a bit of honey to baked good will help them stay moist, it has a chemical that draws in water.
Regularly sharpen your knives either on a steel or arkansas stone. My parents had a knife that was very dull, basically just pushed its way through things, I spent a few hours sharpening it and now it is their sharpest knife. |

I'm not much of a cook, but I've discovered this little tidbit...
Don't store bananas and bread in the same area. The bread will absorb the banana flavor and ruin it.

Here's a great camping tip...I always take a bunch of those disposable foil cake pans or roasting pans with me. That way you can make as big a mess and you want cooking your scrambled eggs (or creamed corn or whatever) and there's no messy pot to clean up afterwards - just throw it away. (Normally I'm very conscious about throwing stuff out but this is an exception.....I hate to scrub out pots and pans when I'm camping!!!)
