Hey T! Good to hear from you!! The apartment search and job hunt are going ok - I'm going to an expat fair on Sunday which should hopefully give me job leads and perhaps apartment leads and ideas for social groups to join. Here's the link in case you want to check it out: http://www.expatica.com/iamnotatourist/
Yep, everyone speaks good English, the only thing they can't understand is my Dutch! :) We are definitely being proactive about finding expat/english speaking groups. On Thursday we went to an international trivia night in a neighboring town and we're planning on going again this week and I've already found another couple who wants to travel there from here who have a car and have offered to take us with them! I found them, well Stacy, through the International Womens' League I've joined. The age group is a little heavily weighted upward for my taste, but I'm sure I'll meet some interesting individuals to spend time with regardless.
The food is unremarkable/international/german/british/belgian, but really not so much american. Terry ordered a "cheeseburger" and it was a little disappointing. I guess you shouldn't expect an amazing experience when you order what your country does best on a different continent! :)
