<333333 I love this. I love the adaption to a new culture, and how it's shown so subtly through food--it really resonated with me from my own adaptations to totally foreign food in a place you can't really comprehend the length of your stay.

So basically: I loved it. :DDDD <3 Thank you for writing it!

Ah, I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

I...took advantage of my recent experience in China for it.

Very sweet. I can imagine that being completely immersed into a new culture unexpectedly, one would look for something familiar. It was nice to see her doing her best to fit in, even while she was looking for items to make her feel like she was back at home.

Thank you so much! I'm glad to hear it balanced well.

Very sweet! Poor Maria.

[elspeth_vimes]

Things did turn out hard for her, but she can deal with it.

Thank you!

This was very lovely and it made me hungry! I liked her adjusting and making these fit but on her own and in her own. It was a very nice piece!

Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

You gave a bunch of great prompts, it was hard to choose one!
