Last year, I wound up chatting late into Wednesday night with the Family Lewis, eventually wandering back to my hotel sometime after midnight, suddenly realising I was hungry, and ordering room service at 1:30am.
That totally didn’t happen again, because today was a Tuesday. Other than that, and a different hotel, it’s bang-on.
Surprisingly, they brought me a gift-bag of assorted Michigan-related stuff, which makes me feel guilty about not being organised enough to track down mini-bars of L&P Chocolate to give folks.
Then again, maybe that’s a kindness?
Is the rest of the world ready for the taste sensation that is lemon-flavoured pop-rocks in white chocolate?
Would I be able to resist telling them that Paeroa is a type of edible frog?
(Turns out that their youngest is obsessed with maps; Not sure whether to give helpful advice, or warn him off)

Arr!
If you get the address of the Fambly Lewis in a completely uncreepy fashion we can post them some L&P chocolate once you get back with no explanation at all because it’d be funny.
That and some Vegemite.
There was a story from Eric from Australia about him ruining someone’s childhood with Vegemite.
The person had seen Men At Work’s “Land Down Under” video, saw a vegemite sandwich in said video, and assumed it was a DELICIOUS chocolate spread.
Then, years later, they tried some.
oooo that’d be bad
“a kind of edible frog”…
See Craig, this is why we love you. And if anyone not from nz ever asks me about l&p, I’m totally stealing that.
Yay!!
