Blending into my surroundings

I hate to admit it, but I think I may be becoming Brit-ified by the minute. Tonight, I will be preparing my first cottage pie. Against my nature and common sense, I catch myself using the term “car park”, despite the fact that I’ve yet to see a swing or a slide in any parking lot. And even though I’ve got my driving test out of the way, I continue to use my handbrake for activities other than simply parking and to “push and pull” the steering wheel to turn the car.

What is the world coming to?

    The day you use the word “plimsolls” is the day we lose all hope. (Do they still say that in England?)

    Cottage pie was great ……and no there weren’t any cottages in it either…
