A MAJOR PLANETARY RECESSION can challenge you to get
along without certain things, like a job, house, car, kitchen or even a
stove. A depression can challenge you to try new things, new art forms
even, like filling 8 hours a day which are going to be available to perhaps
enjoy nature. You may even learn to delight in new ways of cooking, eating
and living. Those House and Garden art forms may be a real challenge to
spoiled, city folk so let's start small getting ready for this switchover.
CHECK OUT HOW TO COOK A RABBIT over a fire ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=msYXtdwMSiQ ) or COOKING ON A HOT ROCK, something you can try doing this very week
in your garden. Have a RECESSION PARTY. Cook slabs of cheap chuck steak, shoulder cut into steaks, not filet mignon.
When camping out, or living on your new farm, or while you're building the cabin, it may be possible to find nice flat rocks that can be used to cook meat or other items as you don't have a kitchen yet. The thinner the rock, the faster it heats up. Like space shuttle tiles – hot rocks transfer heat fairly slowly, allowing one to cook meat without burning. Rocks must be preheated. One also needs to fashion a stick to move the rock in and out of the fire, or have tongs that will allow you to place food onto the rock. Keep the rock in the fire while cooking.

RECIPES FOR THE RECESSION:
Try a pork chop. Insert a knife in one end of the pork chop and slice
an opening into which you can stuff apple slices, or garlic and mushrooms.
Place the stuffed pork chop onto the rock and cook as you would in a skillet,
turning only once. I might put a rounded lid over it, or some foil to contain
the heat, not let any side cool.
Allow yourself an opportunity to practice judging when a rock has heated
and is ready to cook.
THE POT OF RICE or POTATOES is a little bit harder. The Indians throw hot rocks into a tightly woven basket of liquid and drop the string beans, broccoli, corn on the cob right in there. THey serve up the cooked vegies or grains in a gourd. If you had gourds last summer, than you have bowls for your party guests to enjoy their rice in. Just start sawing!

THE BON FIRE IS THE START OF YOUR ROCK ROAST
START WITH A BONFIRE. WHEN IT BURNS DOWN TO COALS, ADD FLAT ROCKS.
