Did you know that you can buy crumpets at Trader Joe's?

How come I've never seen English muffins at bakeries in England?

Well I'm suffering with the morning sickness right now, so breakfast is a no go in fact lunch and dinner are much the same, a few dried apricots and and apple so far....

I keep meaning to go to Trader Joe's in Marlton but haven't managed to get there yet. I can get crumpets at Wegmans for $2.49 a pack which are OK but they are not a patch on Warburtons or M&S.

That's how I felt this morning. But now the sun's shining so I'm kind of over it.

Don't do breakfast - had KFC at 3:30pm after our GC medical.....now digging into a glass of red. Dreadful diet

We used to get Muffins from Tescos, and sainsburies, and Morrisons, and Safeway - apart from that we never saw Muffins in the England either (you have to remember that english muffins are just called muffins in the UK, just like american muffins are called muffins in America)
