Care Packages!

hey everyone! So I am breaking the cycle and taking a few kwacha to write to everyone. Everything here is great. I am officially a volunteer!!! And am getting dropped at my site in two days- SCARY! Thank you all so much for the the kind thoughts and letters and keep[ them coming...I promise I will respond to any letters/ packages set my way. It is your best shot at getting some Zambia postage!

I have gotten a few questions about what to send me so I thought I would put up a list. Please don't feel like you have to. But if you so choose to put something in the mail, know that I will love you forever and you will probably make my life complete. If you do put a package together please don't feel like you need to get everything these are just ideas because people asked

things that I would love gettting...in no particular order
good tea
hot chocolate
candy...like sour worms, skittles, starburst etc
chocolate...in any form
your favorite baking recipes
any kind of protein that does go bad...packets of salmon, chicken, tuna, beef jerkey
magazines...like rolling stone, spin, the economist
ready spice packets...like taco/ fajita packs (not sure what those things are called but you know what I mean?)
any kind of art supplies
yarn
trail mix/nuts...I love most things trader joes comes up with
things that make water taste better...ice tea, kool aid, crystal light packets

And just because my birthday is coming up-aka if you want to send me a gift it should be in the mail by the middle of june
travel board games or games that breakdown easy
stationary
DVDs...things that you like to watch when you wnat to do nothing all day or are sick(especially tv shows...the office, grey's, arrested development...etc)

Ok that's it and really no pressure!
I'll keep the blogs coming
love you all
