Jessy mentioned in the last entry that I was having some cravings, but oh my!! I just got an email from Sonic (I must have registered for something and put my birthday down), and can I just say that while I will miss friends and wildlife and Tim-Tams and the fish and chips shop, I will be SO HAPPY to be able to go to Sonic during happy hour and get an ocean water!!! I have craved that with this one and Pub Squash just isn't the same. Maybe I'd get a toaster sandwich, too, and Savannah would think she had died and gone to heaven when she tasted tater tots again--she loved those! Also, some good Mexican would be great before I get to the heartburn stage (maybe too late for that one already!). And is Big Mac Monday still around??? I really wanted funeral potatoes the other day, but frozen shredded hash browns are unheard of here. And the other night, when we were making some super-duper burritos, I said, "These are better than 7-layer burritos at Taco Bell." The kids' reply, "What is Taco Bell, mum?" I think more than anything, I miss the options--fast food choices and family-friendly restaurants here are few and far between and I appreciate them when I am hungry but can't stand the thought of touching chicken or making anything over a hot stove. Are my kids deprived? Probably not, but I do hope that as we introduce the kids to good old American fast food (in moderation, of course), Savannah will drop the habit of calling dinner "tea!"

Good Luck on the cravings! I the only thing I remember craving was rueben sandwiches!
What's ocean water? Sounds salty:) Cravings are so crazy--and so different with each pregnancy!
Ocean water definitely isn't salty--it's sprite with blue coconut flavoring in it. Yummy!
I miss Applebees and Chili's - I hear you on the choices of fast food and the family friendly resturants.
Good luck with the cravings - don't go back to the states and get it all at once, might make for an interesting meal!
