Nothing could make me happier right now.

For the years of taunting us, les américains, for not being good tourists, now, la chaussure is on l'autre pied. Yahoo! is covering a story from Reuters Life! that French tourists are the worst in the world according to a survey of 4,500 hotel owners across the world. Read more here.

Secerts About a Moonlighting Ida Greenberg

Last night, this typical example of a cutaway gag during the Family Guy episode, Peter's Daughter, had me laughing for hours.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. In researching the episode for my blog, I found out that Pat Crawford Brown cameos in the commercial.

My Christmas gift from Campbells

Happy New Year!

There are some many things to say and to share. I just don't know where to begin. So how about I just forget it and jump into revisiting an old blog entry of mine: Damn you, Campbells! Sell 'em in the US. Well, guess what, Campbells is sellin' 'em in the US.

It’s true. Pepperidge Farm which is owned by Campbell’s soup which in turn owns Arnotts, Inc., is selling Tim Tam in America under its licensing!!! My sister-in-law called me on December 2 from Target where she had picked up 4 boxes. (Two of those boxes were intended for me!)

After the phone call, I shot an excited e-mail to my Aussie co-worker and we did little happy dances in our offices. (That's an embellishment. I know I did a happy dance) I quickly googled "tim tam in us" to confirm my sister-in-law's story. In the Food Business Review, I found the story.

I will be stopping into Target when I can from now until March 2009 or until supplies last. (By the way, Tim Tam make lovely Birthday gifts.)
