Liking alternatives

We have lived in Norway for about 9 months now. Things I missed from the States and could not do without are slowly finding themselves replaced. Like Cheerios. I am still pretty astounded that 'yellow box' cheerios as they are called do not exist in Norway (I wrote Nestle who distributes Cheerios here). Maybe you do not get a craving for Cheerios like I do, but, now I have found a great cereal called Mini Fras which is a fun substitute. And ziploc bags. They are expensive here and come in 1-2 sizes... not the fantastic array I was used to. But, we found that the plastic bread bags here work for most things, and if not, we use more tupperware-type containers than before. But it is funny how you get attached to silly things. We saw an American movie, and when Nils saw someone in the movie using a garbage bag, he realized... hey those American garbage bags were good! I miss those.
