Today was marked by yet another culinary dissapointment. I have never had the look of pure joy on my face as I did when I found Kraft Macaroni and Cheese in my neighboorhood Coles Supermarket this past weekend. I decided to try it out today. Survey says.....OK. Just simply OK.
The following is a list of the foods that will be consumed within the first week upon returning to the USA 8 weeks from now...
(in no particular order)
1) Freebird's regular cayanne burrito with white meat chicken, refried beans, mixed cheese, lettuce, sour cream, mild sauce and alternating hot sauce and bbq sauce with each bite.
2) Chuy's
3) Pizza. Any pizza with a sufficient amount of tomato sauce and cheese.
4) Kraft Macaroni & Cheese
5) Escalante's queso
6) Juicy hamburgers. I had a hamburger here once. The people i was with raved about how good it was. I thought it tasted like...nothing.
7) Red Robin fries with barbecue sauce and ranch dressing
8) Gumbo
9) Brewed coffee
10) Frosted Mini Wheats cereal
The two food groups that have a higher yummy factor in Australia than in the US are: chips and chocolate. Hmmmm....what to do? Improve my short-term quality of life by living off of a meal of alternating sweet and salty? I'm considering it.
Interesting Australia fact of the day: Calendars start with Monday. It makes sense. But it confuses me.

Where do you get good gumbo in Houston? I've yet to find it...except at my mom's house. Her gumbo is the best.
If you get your queso at the Escalante's by my house, give me a call. I will join you. Can we get margaritas too?
Well, Laurie, you get excellent gumbo at Jennifer's Mom's, of course!
I get Escalante's too...
p.s. I had a freebird's burrito in honor of you on Saturday night. yummy.
Jen - have you had Indian food there? I at curry chicken at least twice a week from a little shop that was on my walk home. Just a suggestion. it was really good.
