IGGPPC Camp 2019: Troop Slayer Day 3


Dear Camp Diary,

I woke up to learn we are only one picture away from completing the Camp Cup Challenge! YES! Oh! And there was another night visitor:

Then it was time for more troop updates:


There was a Things That Go Blur In The Night? quiz! Then a reminder about writing our murder mystery story! Then some great hand massage techniques. Then, lately, a great recipe for Aioli!

After I get myself settled with my cabin, it's off to see what the morning brings at camp.


Today's activities are S'mores in a Bag and flower bunk crafts. We sadly became busy with a bunch of things around the house, so the best we got was S'mores in a Bag for breakfast!
I worked a little on compiling drawings for the doodle challenge, but I am just going to have to go the collect images or take pictures route. Doodling just isn't my jam, at all. 

I got to read some more of Vampironica. But then I was down for the count. Got a little Buffy in today, at least.

IGGPPC Camp 2020: S'mores in a Bag


My daughter and I shared a small bag of s'mores for breakfast! I didn't purchase a "bag" of cookies, so we had to make some changes.

I took a gallon Ziploc and stapled wax paper inside. Then I dumped in some mini marshmallows and a few chocolate chips. I laid the bag flat in the microwave and let it go for about 45 seconds (always check during the time, because all microwaves are different). Then we dumped in our Chocolate Chip Mini Cookies, stirred with a spoon, and ate.

IGGPPC Camp 2019: Troop Slayer Day 2


Dear Camp Diary,

This morning was a rough one. Felt a little extra tired, but at least I was up in time to tuck in the moon for our camp morning stretch:
Last night a visit came around the camp:
So that's always an exciting bit of news!

Two of today's camping activities came from me. I hope people do them. The first is a density science experiment. The other is the ghost drink that frustrated me for a while, because I don't like Tonic Water.

I really wanted to work on the constellation board, but something weird was affecting me at camp today. I even fell asleep for an hour on my bunk. Luckily, though, I was up in time to help with the Camp Cup! The list of required camp photos to achieve the cup has begun! YES! I impulsively submitted coffee, because it was right in front of me. There were so many others to try, I don't know why I was so focused on that one. Or we could have just waited for everyone to sign up AND THEN take the picture, just in case we got stuck in a bind for one very specific type of photo.

I also worked to finish my Troop Doodles.


Another activity popped up for our troop and it's a "Who Killed Counselor Nos4a2?", but since I haven't been myself today, it was hard to get into the frame of mind to write. So I made notes.

Also, I was able to play a game of Camp Grizzly with one member of my secret troop. I think it's what made me miss the Shadow Games at camp.


It was secret movie night, though, and our troop is all into garlic and all that, so I made some Troop Slayer Garlic Popcorn and a glass of Blood Punch and my little secret troop (daughter/husband) watched a bootleg copy of Ghostbusters II in that secret VHS Cabin Hut Thing. Mwahahaha! I missed the Troop Slayer Watchalong, but I'm finding I'm shockingly anti-social for actual talking. Messaging, tweeting, and posting photos I can do.

OH MY GOODNESS!!! My "bunk" fort fell down twice today and I have to keep tucking in the sheets. It was very frustrating for the one pivotal hold to keep causing problems.

Before bed, my daughter and I applied our Troop Slayer yoghurt masks!
Our skin was so smooth and delicious afterwards!

My night wrapped up with some reading of Vampironica, which arrived today! Oh... and Happy Birthday, Harry.
