Lots of things have happened since I blogged last. Here's a one sentence synopsis: We moved to a new house, had visitors for a month, visited America, then another visitor.
To get the ol' bloggin ball a rollin again, I thought I'd do a Britland vs "The States" list. See, there were a lot of things we were looking forward to in America. Space, fountain drinks, space, food, space, oh, and friends and family... Once we got there, though, I was looking forward to some of the Britishy things I'd left behind. So here they are, all organizationally layed out for you and whatnot!
God Bless American...
* fountain drinks * road space * Mexican food * mountains *
smoke-free beaches with sunshine * boating * junk food * hot dogs
* campfires * Old Navy * friends & family * country music *
exchange-rate making everything on sale for us people who are paid in pounds *
campfires * lack of inhibition * Slurpees and SnoCones *
Reeses anything * stores that stay open past 5:00 pm * SUVs and pickups *
weaponry (pocketknives, bb guns, etc) *
Good Old Britishy...
* roundabouts * cheese * chocolate * Indian food * public transportation *
accents * politeness * wellies * rain on the conservatory roof *
markets * healthy eating * spunky old ladies * friends *
international holiday destinations * history * villages * London
* Caramel Digestives * teapots * Lush bath ballistics * footpaths * countryside *
Primark * double-decker busses * the kids saying Britishy phrases *
overall Britishy-ness *
It looked all cute and in different fonts and sizes, but then it all went away, because sometimes blogger hates me. Enjoy anyway!
