xxx; Hmmm. That's a tough one. How about a picture book of New England with some history, etc.--since you're from Rhode Island. Or a cookbook with New England style recipes. It depends on who you are bringing it to and what their tastes are. Baseball caps are distinctly American! 501's are distinctly American but cost more than 10-15 dollars. Good Luck!

If the person smokes then you could take them some of your specially blended Virginia tobacco. <BR>Last time I was up your way I saw some lovely crafty things that were especially American. <BR>Someone had a nice idea of a cook book from R.I. and that would be nice too. I am sure that whatever you take will be appreciated very much.

If you're from New England, how about a few cans of Snow's New England Clam Chowder? I think Legal Seafood sells its own clam chowder in glass jars.<BR><BR>Also, there are some very nice award-winning fruit wines from Concord, Massachusetts. Sorry, I don't remember the name of the vineyard.<BR><BR>

hey Andrew did you know Harrod's has a huge selection of Jelly Belly's? Of course they do cost a bit more then in the States.<BR><BR>I got my English Husband addicted to Jelly Belly's, so it's now when of the "staples" we bring back with us from the U.S. Root beer is unique, though definitely an acquired taste. Mmmm, clam chowder, now there's something I haven't had a long time...
