Food, glorious food!

We booked flights home the other week. Since the countdown now feels like it's officially on (I hate using the word countdown for something like this, I am excited to go home but I definately don't want the days to fly by!) we started to write a list of 'must-do's' - nothing too stressful, just some basic things we hope to do before we make that loooong journey home. 

I was hardly surprised to see that most of our 'must-do's' are food based. Gosh we love our food! Here is a glimpse of a first draft of our 'must-do's' (feel free to suggest something!)

It got me thinking about all the different foods we have tried on the great adventure. It is always a bittersweet experience because the better the food, the more I know I will miss it and crave it when I leave that country (or city!) You should see the recipes I plan to try when we eventually make it back to that beautiful country of ours! 

Let's take a little trip down food memory lane....
