Welcome!

This blog is being started for the purpose of sharing all the great recipes, cooking styles, and food related experiences of the Zions Campground at the Hill Cumorah Pageant in Palmyra New York. The rules are fairly simple:
1. If you have a recipe, post it. But post with a picture of you or your family, and a small description of your Zions Camp experience (i.e., how long you have been in pageant, what your camping situation is like, how many you are cooking for, or anything else you like). That way we can emotional and visually connect who you are with your food.
2. If anything inappropriate or offensive is posted, that user will be removed and blocked. No second chances.

Pretty simple, huh? We have talked for years on putting together a recipe book, but this is simpler, and less expensive. It also allows for previous attendees to still access and share their knowledge of surviving the cooking life of Zions Camp (which, lets face it, can be tough).

So with that said, my name is Jennifer Nielson, and I will be the administrator of the blog. I have been camping in Zions Camp for 5 years now, for the month of July. I do have a nice kitchen setup while at the pageant with my RV. I am able to access a small chest freezer even though I drive from Utah, so my cooking style will be a bit different than those who don't have that storage or resourse available to them. I do have the benefit of family members who have also camped in Zions Camp, who have passed all their recipes on to me (and they had less freezer space available). I will be posting pictures throughout, not just of my family, but also of the food, but not necessarily all the time. Especially because in the beginning, I will be the only one posting, until the community gets a bit bigger.

Because of the shared nature of posting, this is a VERY public blog. Please do be careful about what personal information you post about your family (hometowns, ages, birthday info, etc). We don't want to give any interesting stalkers any more info to work with. They are already good enough.

Welcome to the family!
