### Took two pots with cup/lids and one spoon for me and the boys. Boiled
enough for meal and clean-up, with me dishing out the foodness to the
boysens. One pot for boiling, one for food. Clean-up was either with swishing
the warm water left over (meat fat or majorine was involved -- so I didn't
want to leave it to cold water) or via "cooking" the next morning's breakfast
(non-fat) and swishing that. I had brought Doctor Bronner's soap, and thought
about using it on the dishes at least twice. With the functional pot lids,
when the time comes where I can trust the boys to eat their fill all on their
own, we'll be all set. For right now, there's a lot of "heavy metal" in camp.
