_Hello Elizabeth,_

_I found [your book](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/076793010X/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&linkCode=sl1&tag=lizoneandmore-20&linkId=35d0ee1f494da69af65de3b21f12b63f) at the library when searching for dutch oven cookbooks. When I go camping it’s fun to cook in a dutch oven (camp oven, with feet) over charcoal. I’ve found that your recipes from “Glorious One-Pot Meals” work just fine in a camp oven. The only trick is using enough coals for a hot oven. Recipes that cook more than 30 minutes will require a new set of hot coals mid way through the cooking. Otherwise, the recipes as given are wonderful in the open air._

Thanks for sharing, Wally! I agree that [GOPMs](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/076793010X/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&linkCode=sl1&tag=lizoneandmore-20&linkId=35d0ee1f494da69af65de3b21f12b63f) are a great to make when camping!
