I sent a second care package to our university student earlier this week. (Here’s the first one, in case you’re curious.)
This care package contained:
- a container of homemade fudge, made with love by my mother-in-law
- Smarties (because she’s SMART. Do you think she’ll get the joke?)
- knee high socks from Mrs. Tiggy Winkle’s (I’m obsessed with socks.)
- hair elastics
- A Me to We Rafiki bracelet I received in this amazing little package and wanted to pass along.
Not pictured: candy vampire teeth and fake candy blood. Nothing says lovin’ like candy teeth!
I packed it all up in an empty cereal box. My package must have been a bit smaller, or a bit lighter, than one I mailed before. As the post office lady was weighing it she told me that to send it Expresspost would only cost eight cents more. Next day delivery for a few extra pennies? Sign me up! That being said, it was still $14.00 to mail via Canada Post (in case you were wondering).
Perhaps I should have remembered that we’ll be dropping by for a visit soon. Hmm.
