Happy holidays!

Firstly, the kitties would like you to know that they are really enjoying America. Apparently, the armchairs are waaaay more comfortable than in Singapore. And they really prefer the snuggly warm of the heating system to that awful, frigid air conditioning.

Secondly: yes, we are all in America! We moved back to the D.C. area two weeks ago today and are still very much getting settled in and figuring out the fastest way to get to Target. We are also still happily making our way through the various food groups that we'd been missing for the past four years (if by "food groups", I mean steak and various hearty breakfast options, which I do).

As to the future of betsygoestochina.com, it will soldier on, with decidedly more American content for the time being. But, I figure it's been two years since I actually lived in China and we've all accepted the incorrect name thus far, so what's another few years? (Rather ironically, there's a chance I may be in China next month for work, so we might actually get a short stint of legitimacy soon.)

In the meantime, happy happy holidays! We'll be back in the new year with exciting new photos, which may include – and I don't want to get anyone's hopes up too high here, especially my own – a roadtrip to Graceland. Can we say ridiculous Elvis paraphernalia and BBQ? Yee haw.
