Cravings for Home


As you may guess, being in an unfamiliar country, I am craving the comforts of home.  This comes as a variety of different foods and activities that I either miss, or that just aren't the same here.  Below, I will list both.

 

Food

  • Athenian: a delicious gyro with tons of feta cheese!
  • Chicken bacon artichoke pizza (really any pizza)
  • A cheeseburger from the grill with real ketchup and potato salad
  • Chinese food, specifically crab angels and honey walnut shrimp
  • Taco Bell: yes, this is an especially unhealthy craving

 

Now that I'm drooling thinking about food, here is the other list.

 

Things to Do:

  • Go to Target: I am having withdrawals!
  • Go to Costco, because really, who doesn't like Costco??
  • Watch the entire Harry Potter Series: again having withdrawals…
  • Drive.  Yup. just be in control of where I am going and when.
  • Sleep in my own bed! It's amazing how much you miss the comfort of familiarity.
  • Make cookie dough: this isn't on the food list, because I actually miss the ability to make it.
  • Walk the dogs.  I miss having my pups around all the time. Misty is great, but no doggy can compare to mine. 

 

I'm sure I'll have more to add to my list as my trip continues and I count down the days to go home.
