I am soooooo excited! My package came just a few minutes ago and totally made my day!! I LOVE everything! First, I want to thank bgs and her sweet little giril SO much!! Hugs to both of you!!

I'll post all the wonderful things I got and will try to get pics up later. Anyone who knows me knows that I can never get pics to post here on vw, lol! I think AC was the one who ended up posting them for me last time. But I will have my hubby help me, but otherwise they will be loaded onto my FB page. :)

My box of goodies:

The Vegan Cookie Connoisseur, one of the cookbooks that I've been wanting!! I can't wait to start trying recipes... woohoo!!

Hila's Bliss tea... can't wait to try this!

Ricemellow Creme, one of our family faves, YUM! Thank you for saving it for me, lol! I definitely understand the temptation to eat it!

3 Endangered Species dark chocolate with mint squares. I LOVE these! Gonna hide them from my Sweetie!

2 bags of Surf Sweets gummy swirls... can't wait to try these!

3 boom choco boom bars... I've never seen these and am very much looking forward to trying them! I am a self proclaimed chocoholic!

Clearly Natural lemon soap... one of my favorite scents and perfect for spring/summer!

And something that touched my heart and made me cry, in a good way... a precious Easter egg card made by bgs's sweet little girl just for me with a very sweet and thoughtful note on the back from bgs. :)  This, I will keep always! It's hanging on my fridge now.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for EVERYTHING, but especially for your friendship and thoughtfulness! (((hugs)))

3. WHY DO YOU GUYS NOT WANT A CAT. SRSLY.
4. I get aji panca (and amarillo and rocoto) from Cardenas, a latin supermarket. I've only seen them in the Pomona/Ontario area. I never saw this stuff at the Mexican markets in western LA =/ It's tasty stuff!

the cactus jerky taste like regular jerky, it's good.  I took a few things to work for my coworkers to TRY, 3 of them are vegetarian and loveto try new stuff.  They ate every last piece of the soy jerky, and only saved me 1 cupcake!!!!  What is your fav thing to do with the aja panca paste?
