[Cloud USA] From Stephe’s desk…
No, no, I’m not frothing at the mouth because my undies are in a twist about something, I promise. This is LOL fun.
I know… are you shocked? 😛
Well you see, a little while ago, it came to our attention that our U.K. connection and Forum moderator Katie was 1) absolutely BORED with the food in her country, and 2) doesn’t get to eat any American foods because what does make it over into her neck of the woods is incredibly expensive. Five bucks for a 50-cent candy bar? That would be a hell to the naw! (translation: NO way) Girl had never had a Pop Tart? Seriously?
American food can’t be called boring, that’s for sure (and I’ve got the junk all in my trunk and side doors to prove it), so Terri’s like, “Let’s send Katie a care package!” And I was like, “Absolutely. Let’s hit the superstore!” Poor Katie had been really sick, poor thing, and stressed with school, and really good for Cloud USA too, so that was the perfect thing to do. Terri came to pick me up and off we went.
(Jim, Alex, and Kris… don’t go getting any ideas. Just sayin’.)
Anyway, yesterday I was taking a gander at Katie’s personal blog, right? And what did I see? Our grits on the Internet! (yes, we included some Southern “cuisine” as well) Katie had gotten her care package and put up pictures with the adorable Milo peeking into the box. ROFL! Wasn’t expecting that, but boy, did it cheer up my day… that and the fact that it made her so happy.
Inhale it s-l-o-w-l-y, Katie, and you’ll be able to avoid the Junk In Trunk syndrome, okay? Happy Eating! LMAO
» You can read Katie’s fun post and see all of the pics on her Purplezest blog HERE.
And all my appreciation to Terri, who struggled with wrapping everything up and wrestling that big ass box to the post office. Hugs, chingu.

P.S.: You know, I should have snuck a couple of those DingDongs out of there… Blast it.

Awww y’all are amazing. I never knew that candy was so expensive in the UK. Makes me appreciate all the snacks that we have here in the US, that sometimes we don’t think twice about because it’s so readily available. 🙂

Well, thank you.
But I tell ya. If I’d know she was gonna put the stash on the Internet, I would have put a few more “healthy” items in the box. ROFL.

with the effort you ladies put into this site it shows all the time. Katie said it, but i think we all thank you for your expression for care to her.
i can’t imagine $5 for a US candy bar!! we gripe at paying .25 or .50. but for $5 we can almost get a whole package of candy. enjoy Katie, you deserve it.
