you know, i swear that on my first trip to england (1992) i DID see a taco bell, but then there was none :(

THANK GO hubby has not tried a krispy kreme yet, though he wants to when we go back to the US.  however, he DID suffer a dunkin' doughnuts withdrawal (got hooked on boston creme pie doughnuts) after we came back from MA.  think he will be worse after a KK run!

When he tastes the krispy kreme doughnuts he'll want to move to the states. ;)

I didn't get the chance to have any dunkin' doughnuts, but almost had some when I was in New Jersey last trip.

Sorry Idgie... but i think you imagined that Scottish Taco Bell.  I have lived here for many years and there's never been one.  :(   It was a great dream though, wasnt it?  All these road trips to Scotland!  ;)

I'm up for a road trip to Scotland at some point!  Saying this I'd like a lot of time to plan it :P  And where in Scotland would we meet if it were to happen?  I know we'd have to spend time over night and some time just looking at the scenary.....

I'm getting relatively good at making my own Mexican stuff out of necessity. Practice makes perfect.  ;)

Ack! I didn't see this post before.

Not too long ago (about a week ago or so) I was craving Taco Bell so much that I emailed them begging for a UK location. (Leeds of course, you'll all just have to come over and visit it here  [smiley=evilgrin.gif])

I'm still waiting for a reply.

You can buy Old El Paso stuff here. They make for okay Mexican food. I really didn't like Mexican food when I was home (we used to have it practically every day, coming from AZ and all... ) Now I can't get enough of it.

I haven't been too hard up for Krispy Kremes only because Gregg's makes this really nice carmel topped custard donut that I go get when I want something sweet.

They're the downfall of every American everywhere.

They're so innocent looking yet very dangerous.

They're more addictive than any drug in the world.

They're orgasmic.

They're a gift from god.



They're doughnuts.
