Conch soup is delicious. Conch roties have to be somewhere around here because the all you can eat seafood buffet at the Intercontinental had conch soup when I went.

Mr. Green



canukistan, when it comes to beer I ama true Canadian patriot, so it pains me to say that Sangres is one fine beer. I had it again Friday night-I highly recommend it.

mmmm....Tim Horton's..... I miss having a nice hot 'medium mocha'. mind you, I've become acclimatised to Korean coffee.

but I have to say, the thing I miss the most is just being able to communicate in my own language at a native-speaker level. I've been speaking slow and simple English so long, I sometimes feel like I'm losing the ability to speak in full, Konglish-free sentences.

someone else mentioned Montreal bagels - I had completely forgotten about those - sooooo tasty!

I miss the friendliness of people in the maritimes.

I miss my cats. And my family.

And, again, I miss Tim's. mmmmmmmmmmMocha-ly delicious!!
