I miss those things too and I also miss it when someone would call me "Their American cousin from across the pond."
Hi Aunt Julie! Thanks for commenting!
Thank you, Zach! I love that list! It makes me think about what you were doing when you were there. I still hope you will write the What I love about America list.
