Just in case you needed proof that the Internet is faster than international shipping…
Today I received a care package from my mom and step-dad. They sent it last week, several days before I made the last post on this blog—you know, the one where I said I had more than enough peanut butter. Anyway, I opened up the package, and it contained homemade chocolate-chip cookies for Kim (a little dry after eight days of transit, but nothing 30 seconds in the microwave couldn’t fix) and a two-pound jar of peanut butter for me!
So even though I now have more peanut butter than I can possibly use in the next four months, it’s nice to know that so many people are thinking of me and willing to send stuff that reminds me of home.
By the way, you know another thing I really miss about the U.S.? Hundred-dollar bills.
