Angela.... hahahaha, I meant "SO" happy... not "SOUND" happy. Guess I better start checkin my spellin... LOL

Jayne: very very interesting. Yes, Americans are so fast paced these days that it leaves little room for preparing meals from scratch. I miss that, but I do it as much as I can. I very seldom eat out any more. Prepare my breakfast lunch and snacks at home in the morning and bring with me. Usually gone from home about 14 hours a day, so suppers around my house are really really late. And YES, lots of fried stuff here, especially in Texas! I went to the state fair last year, and I think every food there was fried, even the ice-cream! I do believe I've had some good coffee though... but maybe I just don't know it's bad cause I've never had coffee in Australia. Must save my money and come to visit Australia.

Okay, where is Jane today???? Does anybody know?
