| Sorry Karl - not even close. 
(See the other million or so posts on the subject - or ask any Tollhouse cookie loving American.  )
But the point of the post was not brown sugar, or the lack thereof, at all - the point is simply that trivial annoyances, things that normally would not even register on our frustration scales, can act as triggers opening the floodgates.
And then we have to acknowledge the real frustrations, and learn how to deal with them. It's part of the adjustment cycle. It was only after the floodgates opened that I took off the rose colored glasses, admitted to myself that there were indeed important issues that I had to address, that I truly started to find my feet in Switzerland.
No, in the grand scheme of things brown sugar is not important. But I can tell you this: both trivial annoyances and life-shattering challenges are better faced with a plate of Tollhouse cookies. | |

Look, I am no cookie baker, that's the definition of brown sugar that I grew up with, literally sugar that is brown.
