Maybe it's the answer to world peace!?<br /><br />Keep saying "awesome" and I'll keep saying "brilliant." You could even add a "totally" in front of the "awesome" for more affect - although then you might sound like a 1980's American. :)Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04632955602639382927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7602582860825030967.post-4474084180177430802012-06-01T17:03:21.410-06:002012-06-01T17:03:21.410-06:00Jenny, I have just read this and it made me laugh ...Jenny, I have just read this and it made me laugh so much! I didn't realise "brilliant" and "lovely" were such British words! Please don't cut back on your Brit blog addiction, I would miss you.<br /><br />The grass is always greener...I read so many American blogs with envy, people with their large houses and gardens (sorry, back yards ;-)) - space is such a premium in the UK. I live in a very ordinary house in an ordinary town. I have always loved the US and it's traditions, food, language (I find myself saying "awesome" a lot lately) and people and I like the way blogging links people up all over the world.<br /><br />Anyway, Cheerio! (by the way, no-one seems to say cheerio in the UK anymore - I will resurrect it!)Gillian Roehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05080123177116154219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7602582860825030967.post-80464600572775845632012-06-01T14:25:28.659-06:002012-06-01T14:25:28.659-06:00p.s.

Lucky you!<br /><br />I think you're right about blogging being a great way to virtually travel and find inspiration from all over the world. It's like having pen-pals without having to wait for the slow mail to arrive!<br /><br />Enjoy the holiday there.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04632955602639382927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7602582860825030967.post-60531467995531953242012-06-01T11:54:54.142-06:002012-06-01T11:54:54.142-06:00oh you have made me laugh! I was on Alicia Poulson...oh you have made me laugh! I was on Alicia Poulson's blog and clicked on your link (isn't it funny how sometimes there is just 'something' that makes you want to click and visit a blog?). I'm so glad I did. <br /><br />Well I AM British, and I love a glass of cold Pimm's on a hot day, I love rain in summertime, I'm not a fan of tennis, but I fully understand it will take over the telly for two weeks, I drink tea non stop, and say 'brillant' far too much! <br /><br />But. I know what you mean about being inspired by blogs from elsewhere. I'm always curious about foodstuffs, and collect Gooseberry Patch books (your casseroles are so different to ours), I buy tins of pumpkin each year so I can make pumpkin pie, and just recently I bought blue boxes of macaroni cheese - sorry, I mean macaroni & cheese (which I loved!). I think that's the best part about blogging. Getting to travel without leaving home, and being totally inspired to try new things. <br /><br />Love your blog. <br />Enjoy the weekend. It's a Bank Holiday one here, because of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee. I've never seen so much bunting and flags in all my born days! <br />csadie chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14564494708680598287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7602582860825030967.post-43940492464205842122012-05-31T21:30:28.700-06:002012-05-31T21:30:28.700-06:00I am so glad you stopped by!
