Cheers Meg! We are absolutely loving Tennessee, even though it was never on our radar of places we’d like to live It’s definitely very family friendly and outdoorsy here. Enjoy the rest of your week!

Hi Pam, thanks for stopping by Bringing Up Brits! I also find it interesting seeing a British perspective of the USA. Just had a look at your blog! I went to high school in Knoxville, TN. Hope you’re having a great time. Let me know if you want to guest post on Bringing Up Brits sometime. I’d love to have you

Just discovered your blog and I’m really enjoying reading your posts! I’m a Brit living in America, so I find it very interesting seeing an American perspective of my home country, even though I haven’t lived there for a long time. Cheers!

Ooh, I love crunchy cheetos. There’s an American food shop about 30-45 minutes away from me, but I am scared to go in case I go crazy. haha They also have an online shop (Stateside candy co). #myfamilyexpat

I’m sure I sound like the unhealthiest person and mother but I think sharing food from your home country is a great way of sharing your childhood and culture with your own children.

Yes, it can be expensive! But I just can’t resist. Perhaps you could treat yourself once in a while

Love this post Meghan!! Having lived in America for a couple of years myself I totally understand the American junk food cravings!!! There’s something about it (the savoury stuff and the drinks particularly) that is just unbeatable and the UK just doesn’t compare with it!!
I do now have a minute maid craving now though and that is one that is no way gonna be fulfilled here
Thanks for sharing with #myexpatfamily x

Ahh, yes – I am becoming more used to the US snacks (I have a blog series called ‘Slice of Americana’ where I review them). It is certainly fun getting to try them and experience the difference between UK and US snack food! #MyExpatFamily
