The first time greg and i shopped at the local BI-LO in Australia we were scanning the shelves for food to stock our pantry with. We came across this gem and we thought "wow the folks back home are really missing out on a good thing here, maybe we can take some cans of these mushy peas home with us when we go"
So this may be a once in a lifetime opportunity, but we are willing to go to the effort to share this delicious food with you. We will be returning to Australia for a week after vietnam and we are taking orders now for those of you who would like to share in this new taste treat. email us how many cans you would like (limit 4 per family).
ps i am getting behind in the blog. we arrived in Thailand 3 nights ago. Wow this is really a switch from the sticks of Australia. HOT and HUMID....good to see rena....more later

We can't wait to learn about Rena, and your impressions of how she's been living, working, playing amoungst the Thai.
What do you think of her decision to stay in the Far East?
And why are complete strangers coming up to her and asking for her to pose for pictures? Horn-balls?
And another assignment: while you're in VietNam, would you do your best to answer this question:
Now that it is 30+ years since the last American soldier left VietNam, is there any evidence anywhere, in the people, in the culture, in the infrastructure, in the current government, ANYWHERE...
...that the 15+ years, uncounted hundreds of thousands of lives, and billions of dollars spent by the US in its VietNam War, DID ANY GOOD WHATSOEVER?
If you can find some evidence, that history has conceded some benefit somewhere, I'll never feel my 4 years I gave to that war were wasted.
OK Kate. I'll take some mushy green peas; Sari is always looking for a vegan thrill.
And what I'd really like also, is a box of those spicy ginger snaps. I don't know if you could get that through customs tho; how about mailing those two items to us, surface mail?
