shipoker55: so true! I remember the days that I lived on Kraft Mac&cheese. All I had in the house was that, Capt Crunch, and roaches!! Not the kind you smoke, either!!You've come a long way, baby!!
Nothing like a (relative) point in our personal history to get us singing "You've come a long way, baby", aye? Ugh, the first few months I lived here and knew so very li'l of the language (and even that would get stuck in my throat when put on the spot), I could stretch food in the cupboard out for near eternity...just to avoid a trip to the market where I just knew the language barrier would do me in. My favorite edible invention was pasta, any pasta, cooked and mixed with a can of creamed soup, any soup, and any other canned veggie still on the shelf. Scary thing is, I really like it.
Necessity is the mother of invention...so Grandma use to say.
