easterbox

This afternoon I ate in town and came home to find a box sitting on the steps for me. It was my "Easter Basket". My parents sent me tons of candy (Pez, Peeps, Cadbury Eggs)to share with my friends, egg dye, tabasco (I like spicy food, they don't have much here), Jell-o, a magazine, and assorted other things. When my host sister came home that afternoon I had her come upstairs to chose what she wanted from my stash. She informed me that they already have Tabasco, Cadbury Eggs, and Peeps in France. Way to burst my bubble. But she poked at the Peeps in confusion and was completely clueless when I tried to explain what Jello is, at least I still have SOMETHING I can share with this family! (Thanks mom and dad!)
