Now then, how about this. Not one, not two, but three kinds of sweetener at the coffee place today. Not sugar - sweetener. America is changing. Last time I was here, sweetener of any kind was all but unheard of. Now, it's not only here, but there is a world of choice available.
I'm pleasantly impressed, because I do not need to bring my sweeteners along with me anywhere, I am very well provided for.
For the record, I go for pink. Sweet and Low. A nice blend of saccharin sweetener which suits me very well. What next, a sugar menu, perhaps?
That's very sweet Andy. Please can your next post be about moist wipes.

Are you - any of you - implying that my postings so far have been a little too miniscule? Be honest.

No Andy, not at all. I think your American Adventure Blogs have given us Brits possibly the fullest, frankest picture of life in Today's America yet witnessed on the internet. You paint your word poems deftly with subtle brush-strokes and I for one feel that I'm living every moment with you, uncannily present as you engage with every facet of living across the Atlantic. If anything, go into less detail, as it's frankly exhausting. Well worth the effort though! Keep it up!!!

Broccoli and sweeteners. Sigh. Something serious must be afoot.
