sure, I would be happy to, you will have to be vidualent about reminding me once a week untill I tell you it is in the mail so I will remember when I go out to pick up the ingredeants. I ran out this last winter and will need to pick more for this summer.

the ingredients are not at my local store so I need to be reminded before I go fishing.... there is only one shop I know of that still sells it....
