open it now!!!

I got my first “care package” from home ~ hurray!!  When it arrived in the administration office at school, the staff didn’t know quite what to make of it ~ it aroused quite a bit of curiosity among the teachers as well.  I’m certain they wanted me to open it so they could gaze upon the bounty of American wonders, but I took it home sealed ~ some things are just meant to be done in the privacy of one’s own home.

I’m overwhelmed ~ JiffyPop, granola, Dinty Moore, candy!!  FULL-SIZED towels (the towels here are the size of placemats)!!  Levis!!  oh, sweet jesus ~ is that REAL CHEESE?!  and hard salami  (I won’t even tell you what the ‘salami’ is made of here) …   Coffee and a Melita and a real coffee mug (the standard Joanis 20 ouncer, of course) …  People magazine!!  Good god, it just never ends … 

The pièce de résistance is the Pampered Chef scraper ~ I need it, as I manage to burn everything I try to cook on the damn hotplate and have not had the appropriate tool to tackle the char.  Thank you, Bill, for thinking of that ~ can you send a fire extinguisher in the next package?

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!  I’m a very lucky girl ….
