Granny, when I was a boy growing up in a true log house, heated by two fireplaces, my Mother would bake biscuits and bread pudding in the Dutch oven on the hearth! (She made lots of other dishes with the Dutch oven, but those are the two I recall most vividly.)

To this day I can smell those fresh baked biscuits when she lifted the lid. My grandmother canned applesauce and that on the fresh, hot biscuit was heaven to a boys tastebuds.

That is a beautiful memory.

Do you now cook in a dutch oven?

Fresh biscuits, butter and applesauce would taste good.

I will bet your cabin was beautiful, one of those things that I wanted.

I had great plans to build a cordwood house and they fell apart, that would have been easier than a real log house, as you stack it and cement it together.
