question number two

Bethany
Let's say there's going to be a huge natural disaster (say....the big Vancouver Island earthquake). You need to stock up on canned goods to last you a month. Only problem is....you can only choose 2 types. What two would you choose? What two would you choose for Hugh and Sofia?

Hey, now I get to plug one of my new favourite things....Ocean's Pacific Salmon Thai Salad! :o) It comes in a medium-sized, very-easy-to-open can and even includes a little spoon and napkin (although I've never used these....I just grab a fork or a spoon and shovel it into my mouth!). It's nice n' healthy n' gives me an energy boost at lunchtime. Here are the ingredients: thai rice, wild pacific pink salmon, asparagus, red pepper, dressing (vinegar, olive oil, mustard, lime juice, salt, tomato paste, garlic, modified tapioca starch, sugar, paprika), and peppercorn. So yeah, that would be my first pick! :o) My second canned item would be cranberry sauce (whole berry, not jellied). I loooove cranberry sauce (!), plus it would go kinda well with the thai salad and would fill any cravings for sweets.
Hugh said he would like canned salmon and canned spinach, which are good, healthy, yummy choices.
For Sofia, I think I would pick the thai salad again, 'cause I always give her some of the salmon-bits (she loves salmon). I think she would like the other stuff in it as well, once she got a taste of it. By the way, in addition to being delicious, it's also quite filling considering it comes in a little can!....For her second item, I think she would like canned sweet potatoes, since sweet potatoes are (so far) her favourite vegetable. Some sweet potatoes for my sweet potato! :o)
Wow, we're going to be like the Swiss Family Robinson, only with a can opener, less annoying, and we won't be getting our kids drunk at dinner (have you ever read the book?....I'm serious, they drink booze with their kids at dinnertime!).

I'll have to try some of that salmon! Sounds good. I thought for sure Hugh would say Herring... :)
