Genny sent me "herself". She now is with me everyday! I had just been saying that now that I have a side table I needed to add some pictures from home. JLO, aka Jason, Laura and Owen sent me their Christmas card, so I now have Owen hanging out with Genny and me next to my bed. They sent me some fabulous chap stick, hand lotion called '27 wishes' with a little philosophy on it that describes my life, and my FAVORITE, Justin's peanut butter spreads. Buy yourself some and thank me. Allison sent a true taste of home: Mardi Gras gear! I made everyone at work taste a moonpie. I'm not really sure they understood how excited I was to introduce them to Mardi Gras. On Sunday Funday I made Gareth wear Mardi Gras beads all day and made my friend Connah drink from a tervis tumbler that explains that the real Mardi Gras started in Mobile. Booyah! I of course used the hugger for my own adult beverage! Thanks friends, you really brightened my day!!
A few other things that made my eyes go wide were dads selections of drinks and moms selections of food! I made buffalo wings last night and felt like I was at For Pete's Sake again. They have "buffalo wings" on the menus everywhere here. Problem is, they are just cooked wings with a side of bbq sauce. There is nothing buffalo about them. Silly kiwis. Tonight I made myself some french onion dip, bought kettle chips and acted like I was eating my appetizer at Callaghan's. Only problem was I didn't have a massive burger to follow. That's probably a good thing though considering my lack of physical activities these days. Anyways, thanks Mom and Dad, you too/two are the bomb. Two, because there's two of you and too because I meant in addition to my other gifts!
Pictures of our travels are to come! I am getting motivated again to blog, so please keep reading!
