BBM3 - Mickey's Package from Shelley Arrives
Far away in The Netherlands, another BBM3 package finally finds its way...
hi Cathy,
I received the most wonderful package from Shelly, packed with local goodies from Virginia!
There was Virginia wine, chocolate, bbq-sauce, mustard, honey, lemon curd. There was a mix to make my own bread from a local historical tavern (loved that!). Ginger snaps, pecan blend coffee. A wonderful hot jalapeno pepper jelly, a can of 'brunswick stew', traditionally that contains squirrel, this one, thank god, is chicken :-). Then there was a herb-and-salt mix, a Virginia ham paté and lots of peanuts.
And local papers and a magnet and recipes and-and-and...I just received THE best parcel!!!
It took 7 weeks to reach me, but boy, was it worth the wait!
