Huh, canning in an oven. Never tried that. Meat was a bit easier to get than fruit, we could just go hunting the local monsters. Of which there always seemed to be an endless supply..
Nope, not from Earth! But ordinary is ordinary, whether it's labeled Earth or Gaia. I like to think some things are universal, like yard sales and pressure cookers.
That'd be the difference. Not so many opportunities to hunt in the city where I grew up. But also fewer monsters, it seems.
[That does make him laugh, even though it can't come through over text.]
Isn't that the truth. It's nice to find things that seem to be universal truths, though. People are always people, no matter where they're from, I think.

We have, yeah. Sometimes it's even Earth - although if you're not from there, I guess that doesn't really matter, does it.
It feels like it's been a while since we've landed someplace where we can get more than the very basics, though - hopefully we're due.
