About a care package, We may live in the suburbs with the "heartlanders"(old Chinese immigrants) of Singapore, but we have discovered some of the more cosmopolitan stores downtown that cater to the ex-pats.
I found JASON'S a few weeks ago while waiting for Jim downtown. This oasis had handmade tortellinis, ESCARGOT and pate to name a couple of the things I was suprised by (and would never buy!)!
We've even found a Tony Roma's. So, I don't think we've any shortage. We have become quite used to the foods here too (in fact, my boys would rather have instant Chinese noodles over PB&J for lunch!). Over the last 5 years, we find we don't crave old favourites (guess we're not as homesick as we were!). AND there's no way you can send fresh donuts...so we'll just have to satisfy THOSE cravings when we're in the states!!!
