Among the many things that you must adjust to when moving abroad anywhere is the new vocabulary you need to begin using so that you can fit in at your home away from home...or at least as much as a 6'2" Black American can "fit in" in Oz. The same is true of food as you'll be introduced to new foods that are simply delectable (like my sis in-law's maple cream pie - so good it makes you want to slap your mama) as well as foods that are more of an acquired taste like Vegimite (just plain awful really). I'm okay with trying new things and experimenting. Sometimes, even in my posts, I spell words Aussie style like "colour" or "harbour" when we all know that that's not how they're meant to be spelled. But that's not a fight that I want to take up now. No, there are more important fights to take up - specifically KETCHUP fight...or as they call it over here "tomato sauce".
