Tough times

Daph had some bad news last night so I stayed home and we spent the day together. Since the telephone man was scheduled to arrive, I don't think she could take another bad technology day.
After getting the kids off to school and having the technician come to the house, we went for a walk and we talked about some things we missed. After getting worrisome news from home, she felt far away. She said she misses cooking - in her kitchen with her tools. That got her talking about missing some food we just really haven't seen here. She said she wanted a turkey burger and fries.

I convinced her that we should use the day together to just try and have some fun. She didn't feel like it but was a trooper.

I didn't know where to get classic american food. My only thought was really embarrassing - The hard rock restaurant in the city center.

To top it off, we only ordered 3 appetizers: potato skins, nachos and a quesadilla. It was salty and fatty and tasted like home.

Not our best "acclimating" moment...
