In Japan, Sunday is bread day.
We are fortunate to have a gem of a boulangerie, Enchanté, across the street from our apartment. Enchanté produces wonderful artisan baguettes, croissants, and an assortment of seasonal loaves including walnut, apple, tomato and olive. The tiny shop is inevitably sold out on weekdays before we return from work, so we savor the fresh-baked goodness each Sunday almost religiously.
Before I left Portland, I mused on the foods I would miss. Mercifully, good bread is not one of them.

2. oregon berries
3. real Italian pizza
4. green, leafy vegetables
5. earl grey tea with cream and sugar
6. castelvetrano olives
7. water at every meal
Too bad most of the things on your list are fresh/refridgerated foods, otherwise you'd be getting a package in no time. I miss you dear K, and promise to write a good old fashioned letter soon, just as soon as I manage to catch up on my work. I'M ALWAYS WORKING.
