Ex-pat American stash

I’m about 85 percent unpacked from my Thanksgiving trip to the good ol’ US of A, and that’s WAY ahead of my normal schedule. Once the dirty clothes are extracted, I tend to unload everything else ‘as needed’, which means my suitcases can lay around partially empty/full (depending on your perspective) for weeks after a big trip. To be honest, I don’t know why Dr. Darling puts up with it.

But this homecoming was a little different, because as you can see, most of the contents of my bags were needed immediately!

And this isn’t even all of the “essentials”. Many items (including the solid deo/anti-perspirant and the all natural peanut butter) were bought in multiples. Also missing from this picture: Orville Redenbacher Gourmet Microwave Popcorn (butter flavor, of course) and a bottle of Captain Morgan Parrot Bay Key Lime Rum. Have mercy!
