I guess my life is pretty lame if these are the kinds of things that are exciting me these days. First, I found liquid vegetable stock!!! For 3 years (actually more than that, since they didn't sell it in Ireland either, but I could usually find some at the local butcher) I have been using bouillon and hot water to make stock, which just doesn't taste the same. Or if I had some spare time (which was between infrequent and never), I made my own, which always took forever and I never quite got it right. Plus after I made it it would usually end up getting pushed in the back of the fridge and then I would forget about it and end up throwing it away. That is, if I didn't forget about the smelly chicken carcass and have to throw that away first.
Then next I found a dish scrubber that you can fill with dish soap! Another thing they don't sell here, so I have been ordering them from Amazon UK. I just happened to have run out of my last replacement sponge when I spotted this in our local scary-looking grocery store, which has been surprising me lately by having things like the chestnut flour they never sold in Ireland, or Ava's favorite raspberry jam that I have been searching high and low for. It's the little things....
