CHRISTMAS PARCEL: ARRIVED! Mom sent me mole sauce! Yay!→[More:]

She also sent stock cubes, Cholula (the chipotle kind!) and Tapatio, coriander seeds, curry powder, gloves, a wicked cool Christmas ornament, and two boxes of Mexican hot chocolate!

I love how on the customs form she wrote "used household goods".

What a fantastic christmas parcel.

As well as a few gifts (I always want socks) I got a load of tim tams and assorted New Zealand candy. mmmm sweet tooth.

Ooooh, that sounds like a box of deliciousness. I love Mexican hot chocolate.

When I first lived in Spain it was impossible to get Mexican food. Or anything spicy, for that matter. I'm glad you got your fix for now!

Yay. I love care packages from home, and who wouldn't love a box full of Mexican food ingredients? (Had to add 'ingredients' because even though it looks odd, without it the sentence conjured up images of getting a box of burritos and chiles rellenos in the mail, which is not so delightful.)

Oh, man, my mouth is watering. Peanut butter or chocolate?

"used household goods" That's classic, right there.
