Sunday Morning Cravings

I just wanted to take a minute and let you in on some of  my random cravings that I have been experiencing since we moved here.  Jordan and I have had a lot of fun cooking in our flat.  Especially on Thanksgiving when we tried to replicate some of our families best Thanksgiving recipes.  Our pumpkin pie called for corn syrup, normal- right?  we had to resort to this weird bottle called liquid glucose.  Or when we were making the cranberry salad and the recipe called for cool whip and all we could find was 'squirty cream' (that is no lie).  But these next few things have found themselves to be irreplaceable, sadly no substitute can be found for them here. 

wouldn't you think chicken broth would be universal?! well, sadly the Brits don't know its wonders in casseroles and soups yet

how good does chocolate milk sound? yeah.. thats what I've been thinking for the last few months


This goes without saying.. but dang do we miss Mexican food!

But most of all, we miss Auburn.  Especially this week with the the football team bringing home the national championship and both the men's and women's swim teams upsetting Texas in their respective dual meets. 
Trailing by 2 points going into the last relay the men won the last relay to beat the Longhorns for the first time in 3 years
What a week to be an Auburn Tiger.
