Sure, come on over. With an hours notice I'm usually happy to accommodate any culinary wishes.

 

[hennible]

I was hoping you'd come here

 

[vehve]

Oh, sorry, we don't deliver on weekends.

 

[hennible]

Darn it!

I have shipped edibles to Canada once though. My sister spent half a year as an exchange student at Univ. of Saskatoon. I put together a care package for her consisting mostly of liquorice and salmiakki, a local candy. When I got to the post office, I handed the package to the guy at the counter, he looked at it and asked me if I'm sure I want to send this like this, it is after all going to the other side of the world. Somehow he thought that the super cheap envelope I had packed it in was a bit flimsy. Well, I went home, dug out my food vacuum packer, and packed the stuff in a double sealed vacuum package, and went back to the post office. Apparently he had never seen a package as well packaged as that. And it made it to my sister safely too.

Ok, one vacuum sealed care package. And a recommendation you all see BC someday. Oh and some European candy... Oh my Germans friends bring back some great candy. Yum.

It is raining....and cold.....


And I am about to go with my kids, get covered in blood and lie down on the tarmac.

 

[hennible]

What??

 

[Alaskan]

What??

community service...

they need a bunch of busted up people to lie on the tarmac covered in blood so that rescue workers can practice.

Sounds fun
