I am not a fan of okra, fried or no. But it’s pretty impossible to find where I live. Maybe it’s a thing to which one must be accustomed.

What are the things on the sides??

Married to a Swede (close enough) and this is accurate.

Fire, fuzzy socks, porridge, coffee, and cake? Sub tea and this is just a synopsis of my life.

Yup. We’ve been together 15 years and he works all over the continent. Sometimes there needs to be a jumpstart.

I’m on the fence. Does this pineapple have alcohol?

Personally I thought somewhere between moose and elk.

I had a really good caribou stew in Montreal one time. So I’m just saying this might actually come up in your travels. Just dead caribou though. In chunks with a rich gravy and flaky pastry topping.

Oh shit. Are we supposed to take them with us or something?

Oh, totally. I remember it being really pricey. We were fortunate to have full drug coverage at the time. I’d never have been able to pay out of pocket.

Ahahaha. Yeah, I used to work for a party rentals and catering company so this stood out to me too. Sad.

Yeah, but as a Canadian I wouldn’t be caught dead in a fur coat when it’s freaking room temperature outside. That’s embarrassing.

Yeah, hard to find around here too. May have to be salmon Or a sizeable trout.

So every five years I do a boudoir photo shoot and make a book of hot wife pics for my husband. Next year is the year and I think I found my theme. Nudity AND fish? Might be too much for him to handle.

In Canada they give you diclectin. It only took the edge off for me.

This is the second time you all have shared that sad buffet picture, and I’m not any less mad about it.

Did you name him?

I am surrounded by bears and angry moose, but Australian creatures scare the fuck out of me.

It’s really wrong that Nanaimo bars are not a worldwide phenomenon. I grew up just north of Nanaimo and I had no idea until well into adulthood that they were not a thing that everybody knew about. You should make some posthaste. Very easy! No bake!

My older daughter really wants a big sister, which seems more realistic at this point. :P Sure wish there was a way to know that this would all work out.
