My mom & stepdad got back from England earlier this week where they were visiting for a wedding. My birthday came & went while they were there, so they brought me back some presents!

1) American - English / English - American dictionary

This is awesome! There’s some words for things for one that are different in the other. For example:

Hamburger Bun (Ame.) = Bap (Eng)
Suspenders(Ame) = Braces (Eng)
Garter = Suspenders (Eng)

2) Mini Battenburgs!

Battenbergs are checkered sponge cakes sandwiched together with apricot jam then wrapped in an almond flavored paste. Mmm.

3) MONKEY! Anyone that’s enjoyed a cup of PG Tips tea will know who Monkey is. My Monkey has suction cups on his hands so you could stick him to a window. I’m going to keep him next to my keyboard since one of his stickers is warped.

Monkey with my cup of tea. (PGTips of course!)
