The Random Musings of a Jersey Girl & Her Family Finding their Way Around The World
Continuing with the “getting to know you” questions: If you could have only one food for the rest of your life and it wouldn’t affect your health in any negative way, what food would you choose? PIZZA! Not just any pizza though, proper East Coast American pizza (New York pizza specifically)! If I had to […]
MJ has been in a mood today. Nothing has been going right on his day off so the long weekend is off to a great start. To cheer him up I let him choose what’s for dinner. He suggested Takeaway (Take out for the American peeps) but he can’t decide what. When he’s down, the […]
Crude but funny Aussie commercial, being proud to be Australian. VIDEO: Dick Smith’s Australia Day ad too rude for TV

Today I had a first aid class and one of the things I had to learn a whole bunch of sea life that are native to Australia and how to respond to a sting or a bite. So that was interesting. But that’s not the reason for this post. During my lunch break, I took […]
I placed an order at USAfoods for some of our favorites! Apple Jacks, Honey Combs, Snapple, Nutter Butters! When I received the package, I was like a big kid opening up her Christmas presents, oohing and aahing everything I took out.
