smucked ersters

I found some notes that i wrote during my last trip to Ecuador in July 2003 (really, it's a shame that i haven't cobbled some sort of trip report... maybe i'll do that this week).  In a kitchen cupboard at my parent's apartment, i found a tin of smoked oysters that i know we've had since about 1976.  I'll be going back in September and i hope to find that tin there, using its smoky, molluscky powers to keep my parents safe and healthy.
