I thought Nutella was more of a "foreign" thing. I just recently bought my first jar because someone here on my opera was talking about it last month. I haven't tried it yet.

I do like peanut butter. I've found a better product lately called Sunbutter. It's like peanut butter but is made from sunflower seeds. It tastes good and has no hydrogenated oils or other additives. Just a tad expensive.

Yer welcome! "tad" is a slightly strange word I guess.

Here are a couple of websites that can be fun for a little while for learning new words. After a few weeks it will sometimes get boring. Both of these send you a regular e-mail after you confirm subscription:

Here's another use of the word "tad", plus the addition of the word "nippy". Nippy is a word you use when it is a little bit cold outside. So to be cute and to refine the meaning as it just being a little little bit cold out, I often hear people say this:

--
How is it outside?

It's a tad nippy.
--

Sounds a tad funny!

Hey!

I've never heard the word "nippy" used in that way, but it may be a regional thing I don't know about.

Maybe you are thinking of the word "snippy"? I think a snippy waitress would be one who is slightly a bitch, lol.

My friend here just told me to tell you that a nippy waitress is one whose nipples can be seen.....but that's not true!

I wouldn't mind teaching, and I almost got my certification one time. It was for Spanish. I lost interest in teaching just after that.

I think I like words a lot. I subscribe to both of those lists I liked to the other day. Sometimes the lists get too tedious and I just delete them.

You can always go to England, but then your English would forever sound funny.

If you ever come to the usa, my house is your house, though my house is very small. I do, however, like my little house. I don't need a big one.

If you *HAVE* to see those nipples, there is an annual festival in Nevada called Burningman that you might like. We went in 2004 and want to go again as soon as we can. It's art, music, dancing, socializing, fire, nudity, anything-you-want, all in the desert of Nevada with over 30,000 other people.

We put some of our photos here on flickr. A lot of the pics are our trip there and back, so skip to the middle to see more of the scene.

We towed our travel trailer (I think the English call it caravaning) there from North Carolina, which was nearly the length on the entire country. My pick-up truck uses a lot of fuel when towing the trailer. In 2004 our roundtrip fuel cost was $950. Now it will cost us almost $3000. We're not sure what to do. Maybe try to save money for another year, or take more people with us.

Still thinking on it.

¡Gracias Dedo!

Por fin he dejado de comer Nutella. Está lleno de aceite de palma y HFCS (high fructose corn syrup). Me encanta el sabor, pero.....
