i love getting care packages.

thank you jessica and patrick!

(my family in alaska.)

the other day, i looked out of my window

and saw a DSL truck in front of the house.

a man was carrying a package to the door.

i thought, "oh, i wish that package was for me."

but figured it was for my landlords.

whenever i came downstairs

and saw a giant box sitting at the foot of the stairs

addressed to me,

i almost screamed.

 i took every item out of the box so slowly

saying ,"oh my gosh, i love this!"

in response to each little gift.

- 2 boxes cupcake of mix, icing, sprinkles and cupcake paper

(i have not been eating desserts very much here at all

and i crave them all the time!)

- fireweed honey and blueberry jam

(my favorite alaskan products!)

- reese's

(can't get those over here! i miss them dearly.)

- moose-shaped pasta

(any kind of free food is my kind of gift.)

- campbell's soup

(see above subtext.)

- tea & hot cocoa

(it's freeeeezing here so this is necessary.)

- chocolate covered peanuts

(i am saving these for the next time i make trail mix!)

- a sweater

(which i have already worn.)

- a card

(with notes from both of them & polaroids attached.)

- a power bar

(already ate it)

i'd be lying if i said the cupcake mixes weren't my favorite part.

thanks again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
