Delicacies
I just had dinner with my host family- John, Jennifer, Willa and Hayden- which is always a delight. We chatted and had a lovely meal, where I had second helpings of carrots (yeah, I don't know what's going on there either). Hayden was cute, Willa and I told each other ridiculous stories, and Jen taught me the rudiments of knitting. Before dinner John drove me to the Cost Plus World Market, out beyond the strip-mall hell that is 82nd, where they have all kinds of imported food and drink. As a Christmas present, Host Family got me the following English delicacies:
Heinz baked beans
Fox's Crunch Creams
Sherbet lemons
Chocolate Hob Nobs
I could've gotten a whole lot more, this place was amazing. Team GB must make some kind of foray another time. Unfortunately they had no Jaffa Cakes, which I long for and keep telling people about, to their slight puzzlement. I am eating a Hob Nob right now (scrumptious); I think I'll wait til Charlotte gets back and we can have glorious beans on toast.

I think I can bring different GB treats when I come to America:
Xenophobia
Binge Drinking
Tabloid Mentality
Sexual Repression
Morris Dancing
Chicken Vindaloo
How's that sound?
Don't worry, i can slip a Busted CD into his luggage if you like ;)
Hee, you should so do it. (This would be Nicky, right?) The customs people will search his luggage, and he'll be all like, "But officer, that CD is not mine! Someone planted it!" And they won't believe him.
