Veterans Day - no classes!! ^^

Hehe, we had the day off due to Veterans Day (according to Wikipedia an " annual American holiday honoring military veterans").
We used the time to buy some food and learn... (to be exact, I wanted to learn during the afternoon, but I fell asleep, so I still have to do some homwork).

To go grocery shopping in the US is each time a funny experience... Let me give you an example:


Yeah, there's nothing you can't get... they even have canned spam over here (I wonder who buys this :-p)   Nevertheless... I would prefer having Spam lite in my incoming mail instead of this common high-cal Spam. ;-)

In fact today I discovered EMMI cheese in Safeway...    but it's quite expensive, about 8$ for 0.22 lb! There's also American cheese, but usually you can't even look at it... it's mostly orange, I should post a picture once, otherwise non-Americans wont believe it.
