Big skillet = a couple of eggs frying along with a couple of slabs of bacon.
Small skillet = prolly two or three russet potatoes frying w/garlic, onjions (sic), and pepper - after breakfast (whatever time I decided to make it, obviously noonish or early afternoon judging by the sunlight/shadowing) those potatoes will serve as a cold snack or a side dish w/supper after a quick reheat.
The Kettle has boiling water, and I often would move it to the wood-fired heating furnace to keep hot, using it to make tea at various points of the day and night. The Stanley cooker doesn't stay hot for long. It's firebox is small, and consumes a lot of wood. You can see at the left rear that I have a heat exchangers with hot water pipes, but all it does is produce small amounts of tepid water, and not even that when it's cold outside.
This must have been a warm day, because I have the one of those kitchen doors open off the side of the cabin. Those are the same doors I met a big black bear through. That's another story, with a video, but suffice it to say that by the time I realized that bears don't know what windows are, and it was only two steps away from being able to rip my face off, I continued getting more and more frightened after it casually lumbered off and it finally dawned on my how much peril I was actually in... and became more frightened, and more frightened, and then I strapped my 1911-A1 to my chest and didn't even sleep without it or take it off for a couple of weeks. Dead bears are better than Dead Bradley's, and I suppose I could eat that fucker if it could eat me (although I've heard various stories as to whether they taste good or not).
Oh, back to the hot water heat exchanger - I installed a propane fueled on-demand water heater that fed the shower.... If you're going to have only one amenity that is a guilty pleasure of convenience... let it be hot fricking water. You can thank me later for that wisdom :)

Just me, myself, and I, on a sunny afternoon with my wood fired Stanley cooker.
