Dr. Pepper!

Since we moved her 4 years ago there have been some wonderful food items and every day things that have become available to us in our city.  The newest things have been that you can actually buy a Dr. Pepper (6oz. can) in the local grocery store.  For the past few years our Import store has carried Dr. Pepper (regular sized cans) off and on so it is pretty incredible to be able to buy it in the main grocery store.  The Import store is expensive but the grocery store is even more expensive so we probably will not buy them from there.  Along with Dr. Pepper is real Bounty Paper Towels.  After our first maybe 1.5 years here they started carrying paper towels but now we can get Bounty.  Too bad they are about $5.50 a roll, we probably won't be buying them but it is nice to know they exist. 

One Import store in town carries a lot of meat choices.  We cannot get good sandwich meat here but we can buy Pastrami and salami from this Import store when they have them in stock.  We can also buy hot dogs and much to our kids delight we can buy Tyson chicken nuggets.  I can't tell you how being able to get these helps our lunch and dinners.  The kids main lunch consist of peanut butter and jelly.  Maybe that is why they began protesting it in America.
