Midnight Craving is Homesickness

OK, OK, I'm finally missing home. I've been lying here trying to sleep, I'm hungry, and all I can think about is all the food that I used to eat back home that I can't seem to find here. Olives, avocados, cheddar cheese, nachos, guacamole, pot roast. Before I went to bed I actually had a guacamole making fantasy where I made guacamole for the book-study treat night, of course, being a fantasy, everyone loved it. Guacamole is one of the few things I can make, along with pot roast, which never turns out as good as the "one time I made it" where it was really good. I think they have slow cookers here, so I could probably make that if I really wanted to, I'd just have to buy a slow cooker.
I realize a lot of my web entries on here are about food, sorry, I like food I guess. When I get back to the States I'll probably crave all the food that I ate over here, but until then I'll crave all the food over there.
I think tomorrow I'm going to try that Mexican restaurant that I heard is really bad. I could go for some bad Mexican food right about now. There aren't many Mexican restaurants here for some reason, I hear there's only one that's any good in all of Taiwan. I would think that having Mexican restaurants would be a priority over "Outback Steakhouse" and "TGI Friday's" Who eats American food anyway? They have Pizza Hut, MacDonald's and KFC, huge fancy places, but no Taco Bell even!
I'm not making my hunger go away, or helping my insomnia. Goodnight. (edit 329)
