I wish Emma would eat broccoli. The only way she'll eat it is mixed with other veggies and tomato and cheese. Our girls are quite different there!
I remember swimming in the Gulf of Mexico, the cranes on the beach, the white sand. It was so hot outside but you needed a cardigan when you went into the air-conditioned mall! I remember discovering frozen yogurt, Dr Pepper and Hardees! Then we went to Orlando and did Disney - what a contrast, from the beauty and tranquility of the West coast to the brash busy city. Those were the times, not a care in the world, how I long for a vacation!!! When you have kids going away is not a vacation it's more of a chore because you have no home comforts and we still have to look after the kids!
Covered dish dinners sound very dangerous for Atkins, do you often eat with several people or is that lunch at work?
I remember all you can eat buffets that we used to go to when we were in the states - my Dad loved them!
I wish we could get Coke Zero on tap over here - I'm sure it will come, it just takes a while for things in America to come across to old blighty! I'll check out the website, thsnks, but I'm always cautious about ordering online.
I am not really into the journal thing. I like reading all the threads and joining something that sparks my interest. I've been browsing and posting and I'm looking forward to swapping ideas, perhaps I'll do the journal later.
