Ahhh! Feels like home!

I was shopping for the week at a new supermarket - you know, where you have to go up and down *every* aisle to find the things you need - when, tired from searching, my eyes fell upon something that made me stop dead in my tracks. A blue box, a splash of milk...OREOS!!! Here in Bozen??? I snatched up a box and threw it in the cart. Matthäus asked, "What are those?". I answered in an enthralled voice, "Oreos!". He gave me a sidelong glance, and we continued shopping.
When we got home, I rifled through the bags for that blue box and ripped it open. Matthäus curiously took the foil package from the inside, opened it, and bit into a cookie. "No!", I said, "That's not the way to eat Oreos!!" And screwed one apart for myself, teething the sugary white insides out and munching into the cookie top. Ahhh! I was never particularly fond of Oreos, but some things just feel like home away from home...
