I Love My Family

On Friday, we got a box of fine amerikanische items from my family:


  • Girl Scout cookies
  • Velveeta-brand macaroni & cheese dinner (this is Shelby's thing -- the Velveeta is, according to her, what really makes a boxed mac & cheese dinner)
  • many rolls of SweetTarts & Bottlecaps
  • Thorlo walking socks for Shelby's aching feet
  • Milk-Bones for Scout
  • The Simpsons - The Complete Third Season DVD set
  • Some of the first polished stones from my brother Zach's rock tumbler

We've already enjoyed a fine mac & cheese dinner, burned off our tongues with some of the candy, and watched most of one Simpsons DVD; this box will be enough to give us our American cultural fix for weeks to come. I love my family even if they don't send us boxes, but getting care packages from the States is nice, too! Thanks, Mom, Dad, and Zach!
