Amusingly Different

Living in a different country is, well, different. The British may speak English but the choice of words and phrases is very different from the US. Almost on a daily basis I am entertained by differences. Today's amusement came in the form of a waffle. I ordered waffles in my grocery delivery last week. I thought it would be a good easy breakfast food for Avery that she can feed herself. Of course none of the brands are the same here so I wasn't ordering Eggos. This morning I popped a waffle in the toaster and out popped cooked potato. Apparently I ordered potato waffles. I think hashbrown would be a more appropriate name. While I think it was yummy, it's not exactly what I was going for.
