There'...I was on vacation last week to Chicago. There's a really nice Japanese Supermarket there. I stocked up on bottles of sauces, 2 tubs of miso paste, and bottled drinks. I carefully wrapped each bottle and tub of miso with dirty laundry and tied them again in plastic shopping bags in case it leaked in my suitcase. TSA RIPPED EVERYTHING apart and tossed the items haphazardly back on top of my clothes. Luckily nothing broke or leaked. I guess through the X-ray, a tub of miso paste looks like a bomb.Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15829970471560053186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17223830.post-23562020358549272892009-07-31T15:50:50.444+09:002009-07-31T15:50:50.444+09:00Fancy slippers! ;-)

I'm sure the time just flew by. I can totally understand the whole luggage situation. You should see the stuff my husband and I bring back to American Samoa. My family is always laughing at us.

I'll have to keep an eye out for those Havianas.<br /><br />Heehee, whenever we visit, I always bring an extra luggage for those "extras" that I bring back. Can't help myself.
