Before going to Ray at Night, a gallery walk in North Park, my dear friend CC and I decided to go to Taste of Thai in Hillcrest for an early dinner. Mind you it was the beginning of the dinner rush, so we knew it could be a while before we could find parking and actually sit down to a meal. We had been there before and liked the service, ambiance and food. There are just a few places in town where I’ve found curry that I like. This is one of them. As luck would have it, we found a parking place right in front of the restaurant door (CC has the best parking karma I’ve ever seen.) There also happened to be one last outdoor table available. We both love to dine outside… it feels so European and wonderful. Then we can people watch while we catch up on our families and ourselves. We are both very active and appreciate the life that goes on around us. With CC traveling the world all the time, he has endless adventures. So many times when we talk, we both just embrace how wonderful it is to be in San Diego and living with good health, loving family, and friends nearby. And good food enhances all that life has to offer.

Enough of all that, let’s talk about the food and service at Taste of Thai. About 15 minutes after we arrived, the restaurant filled with people. We were seated in less than 5 minutes. The other diners waiting seemed to be seated in a short period of time, as I don’t recall seeing a standing crowd for very long.

Mark, our server, was at our table in less than 5 minutes. I think there were three different people helping to serve us. We ordered Choochi Curry Salmon and Choochi Curry Chicken, which is mild and sweet curry, coconut milk, peas and carrots. There was only one time we had to ask another waiter to get Mark so we could get another drink, but that waiter seemed happy to bring us the drink himself. The staff seemed to work very well together and took excellent care of us. Taste of Thai will remain one of our favorite Thai restaurants. Service and food are wonderful, and they have awesome coupons.

Now, more than ever, is an important time to be prepared for life changing events. As past economic downturn statistics show, the effects of a tightening job market are felt throughout all industries and job sectors. America currently has one of the worst economies in its history since the Great Depression. With a downturn in the economy comes a downturn in jobs. In 2010, unemployment ranged from 9.7 to 10%, nationwide. 44-46% of those unemployed have been jobless for over 27 weeks.

With the job market suffering and companies having to cut their work force to stay afloat, job security is vanishing. Today, companies typically give little to no advanced notice of layoffs and job cuts. And few companies are offering severance packages to those they let go. This leaves people without a paycheck for many expenses, especially the cost of food to feed their families.

The average four person family spends around $6000 a year on food, implementing of a disaster relief program can ease many worries. Part of your disaster relief program should include food. Nonperishable food can be affordable food. In planning for long term disaster relief, nonperishable food storage should include enough food to feed a family for 8 to 12 months. Think of everyday food storage items such as dried food and canned food as your food insurance.

Everyday food storage products can also be a great way to save money on food. Nonperishable food is affordable and has great value especially with the rising cost of food in grocery stores. Due to droughts, natural disaster and strange weather patterns, many crops aren’t yielding the expected amount of food. This makes the retail price go up. In some places across the country, certain foods aren’t making it onto grocery store shelves. In some states tomatoes are being offered at eating establishments for an extra cost.

It’s not necessary to wait for an emergency to start cooking with food storage products. Most of the staples in the common diet are foods already offered in food storage, such as grains, fruits and vegetables. Cooking with these foods can seem daunting but with the increase in food storage popularity, there are many great cook books available to help one get started.
