What did I go to America to buy?
Ask any ex-pat what he misses about the home country: 80% will be edible.
These are some of the things I brought back with me (spent a blissful hour and a half in Target).
Not pictured: Reese's Peanut Butter Cups (already, I regret to say, gone the way of all consumables), Triscuits (I left the packaging behind), Grapenuts (ditto), chili powder, 2 cans of Clam Chowder; a nice Merino sweater, 2 pairs of trousers, underwear, and a Veronica Mars video.
I realize that everyone's list will be different, so I would be interested in yours!

You do know that KaDeWe here has ree's Pieces AND Peanut Butter Cups, don't you?
In fact, so does my cupboard right now.
And now I'm starting to feel a crave coming on.

You're already back?! Well damn, that was a short trip! And hey, you shoulda followed your sister back to Seattle; we'd have taken you to Ivars on the water for some GREAT clam chowder!
