A Free Prize!

A hundred years ago, we bought new couches. Okay, obviously an exaggeration, but it's been a few years at this point. With these free couches, we received two free lamps. We didn't really have the room for said lamps, so I put them in the garage and forgot about them. Then when I was cleaning them this week, I found the lamps again! So I pulled them on out and set them up.

As soon as I opened the box, I found a surprise waiting for me.

An empty cigarette box! What a joy! Specifically a Chinese cigarette box, which made me laugh really hard. I've never had this happen before and probably will not again, bit it was an interesting first.

A Package!

I send my little sister packages all the time. I send some from my own house, but a bunch of them I send straight from Amazon.com. All I have to do is type in her info, and it sends it directly to her, which cuts out the middleman (me) and it is glorious. She and her husband moved to Cali a little more than a year ago, because he’s in the military, and that’s where they’ve been stationed. Finally, yesterday, I got a package in return.

And there it all is. She’s sent some monster cookies, and she decorated the bag with a guy riding a unicorn, many makeup bags, that apparently she must hoard, and a load of free samples that she gets, being part of some club. (She’s told me the name before, but I can’t remember for the life of me) There’s a giant T-shirt that she threw in, that was to pad the cookies so that they wouldn’t get all smashed up in transit. The cookies were really good, I want to get this recipe and make them myself. And how exciting it is to get packages- I just love mail!
