Friday Fives

If you were stranded on an island, what are the five things would you just have to have?

So we’re just talking about things here, right? I can’t bring people? If I could it would be my husband, Mr. Wilderness. He loves to hike and camp and has watched enough episodes of Man vs. Wild and Survivor Man to know what to do to survive. But if I can’t take him, and I can't bring something like a boat or cell phone with service, this is my list:

1. Sunscreen

I’m as pale as they come. Think Edward Cullen. I couldn’t imagine hanging out in the sun all day without some major SPF.

2. Chapstick

I apply Blistex about ten times a day. I know it addictive and if I stopped using it, I wouldn't have to, but I don’t care. I don’t like dry lips. So I’d have to take it with me.

3. A knife block

I guess I would need a knife, right? A good knife block has tons of options.

4. Seeds

I could grow my own fruits and vegetables and not have to survive on fish and leaves.

5. My iPhone

I know I wouldn't be able to use the phone or the internet, but I could listen to music, watch movies, play games, take pictures and look at pictures of my loved ones. I suppose it would have to be solar powered. Plus, maybe one day someone will buy an island nearby and build a cell phone tower.
