Care Package
Remember when you went to summer sleepaway camp and Mom would send you care packages? Well, I don’t because I never went to sleepaway camp. But if I had, I’m sure my mom’s care packages would have been the awesome-est (yes, I am aware that “awesome-est” isn’t a word, but a new one had to be created to describe just how hard my mom’s care packages would rock). A lot of places won’t ship internationally and a lot of others charge a small fortune for it. So Mom collects all the stuff we order, packages it all up, and then mails it over here. Both my mom and Mr. Kaizer’s mom do this for us. Why? Cuz moms, pretty universally, are amazing. Our moms more so than others.
In addition to two books, a bunch of hair product that you can’t buy in Japan (and the only thing that stops my curly hair from looking like I stuck a fork in a light socket), a replacement ipod charger, and a stick blender, we received a few really awesome goodies.
Did you see all that ricrac? Nine colors, five yards of each color. What am I going to do with it? Not a clue! But it was on sale and I’m sure I’ll think of something. I look at it this way: there are so many stash-busting projects out there that totally rock. How can you do them if you don’t have a stash to bust? I’m sure that one day I’ll figure out what to do with all of it.
Then there were a couple of surprise gifts. For me, a cute bookmark with green glass decorating the end, cool black and white bobbie pins, and two mini totes. I think the mini totes would make adorable gift bags, don’t you? And for Mr. Kaizer, two hats. Wild, crazy, funky hats. Just his style. He’s thrilled. And while I think they’re pretty cool, I still cringe a little when I think about the amont of attention he receives when out in public while wearing them. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have some goodies to play with!
May life continue to inspire you,
Miss Kaizer
