  14. I was wondering if you had made it to the MN State Fair? I like to watch your podcast, I have sort of been in your shoes. I was stationed in England for a while (both kids born there) and got to go to Germany a couple of times for training.

  16. Coconut M&M’s??? I haven’t ever seen them in a German store. I love coconut, and I want those M&M’s to be available for the non-base Germany, too. I have to keep my eyes open, though, in case they *are* available.
