Miles per Gallon


I just realized how successfully we are blending in. I think in Miles Per Gallon and no longer in liters and kilometers. Toyota Prius is my favorite car and I love huge cups of coffee. I drink milk from 1 gallon bottles (3.78 l) and I manage to pour myself a little milk without losing control of the heavy container. The glasses that we brought from Belgium look very small compared to our new American mugs in the kitchen closet. There’s only one thing that needs improvement. I like regular plain coffee with milk. That is very hard to get here. If you want French vanilla roast with 0.1% fat skimmed milk and organically manufactured orange juice sugar in a cup of specially recycled 80% post-consumer materials, it’s easy. If you just want plain old coffee in a mug, you are a difficult customer! Or French.
