Supplies from home
 

Off to PDX in a little while to collect visitors from the mother land.

They are bringing among other goodies McVites chocolate digestive biccies. Be nice to see the visitors as well. :p

lol - MIL always brings some goodies....must admit I'm always like a kid wanting to know what's in her suitcase.....:)

Re: Supplies from home
 

:) I always 'request' my daughters bring Branston Pickle, Fruity sauce, Rowntrees' fruit gums, Mr Kiplings cherry bakewells and then Revels, Licorice Allsorts, Cadburys chocolate and British magazines like Hello and Reveal. They don't have any room left for clothes or make up for themselves. :rofl:

I tell them clothes are over rated anyway.....

Don't eat them all at once! :p

Strict rationing is enforced one chocolate digestive at a time.

Cost Plus World Market
23rd & W Burnside.

(Fred's is carrying those Lyon's ones.. not quite as nice IMO)

Re: Supplies from home
 

Too true! And I can usually find Branston's if my husband feels like having ham and pickle....:)

Yes but at a price which when withdrawal symptoms get bad enough I pay.

This is why the missus is downing Walls sausages like there's no tomorrow, while she has plentiful supply. :thumbsup:

I'm off to London in two weeks to stay with my son. We asked him if there's anything he wants me to bring over from the States... he looked a little puzzled and politely declined..:lol:

Now that cheered me up!

Our Jewel Osco has an english section, but its not very big.

Infact its more of a shelf than it is a section....


Marmite I dont care if you hate it, I love it.

Re: Supplies from home

Re: Supplies from home
 

If he's low on candle wax he could ask you to bring over some chocolate. :thumbup:
