My mother was very much an Anglophile.

And the bit about Fish and Chips made me laugh. It's my all time FAVORITE thing to eat.

I've made about 8 trips to the UK. Once with my mom and once with both parents.

Something just clicked, with me, during my first trip there, when I was 19. I couldn't see enough or do enough. And the funny thing was how 'at home' I felt. ESPECIALLY in Wales.

Hopefully I'll get to go back, before I die. And, if not, my instructions are to take my ashes to Wales and scatter them.

I thought most people did. I use it to drink Folgers all day. When my old one stopped working after 20 years, I had to head right out to the store to buy another.
