The Land of Plenty

I am thouroughly enjoying my return to the United States, land of things free and home of the steak. I had almost forgotten how nice it was to get stuff at for free, to sit on a bench while out for a walk, use a public restroom, drink from a drinking fountain or throw my garbage in a trashcan on the street.

American beef is just as good as I remembered it. I've had steak twice and a big juicy hamburger so far. I've made up for our KFC Thanksgiving with a big turkey dinner with the family. Turkey leftovers turned into a delicious turkeye pot pie.

But best of all is getting to spend time with my friends and family.  I've baked Christmas tree cookies with my 5 yr. old brother, built a couple of fabulous gingerbread houses with my siblings and aunt and started my Christmas shopping with my sisters. Yesterday, I went over to my friend's house to watch Three Stooges and Indiana Jones.

I love being back.

They don't have public bathrooms?? Actually, I have a weird fear of public bathrooms that crops up every once in a while, so I think I would actually do just fine =D
