Some Extra Info Before I Go

So, I have about 5 days to go before I am no longer the one writing the blog posts, and last night my newest sister in law, Melissa requested that I clarify some things , like favorite foods, etc, that can be sent in lovely things called Care Packages.  I'm more than willing to oblige her.

Food:

Cookies of basically any kind are good.  I love Mint and Peanut butter (though separately.  Combined I think would make most anyone sick...)  Chocolate chip is always a good one (I Love David's recipe.  Though I like Pecans MUCH better than walnuts in any situation.)

Canned things like Cream of Mushroom or chicken are always useful, corn,  black beans (not horribly fond of kidney beans for some reason... too big I guess) Olives, of course.

Rice A Roni/ Pasta Roni are good too, fast, but tasty.  Not so much Ramen, but it has it's perks.

Hmm... I like fruit and veggies, but that's kind of hard to mail without it rotting along the way.... unless you mail it in a cooler or something... Same with chicken and beef, but that's a bit more dangerous.

Clothes(hey, why not?):

Shirts I'm usually a 16 or so, large or extra large depending on things

Skirts/Pants, etc: approximately  20, give or take depending on the brand.

Shoes:  10  or 10.5 wide (it's what I get for wearing only flipflops for the better part of a year or two...)

And on my mission, in my specific area, I can't wear patterned shirts.  They have to be solid colored, and preferably button up with a collar.  If they're not, then they can't be tee-shirt material (if you know exactly what that is, you have one up on me)

I think that's basically it!  If I think of anything more I'll either post it as an edit in a different color, or I'll mail it to Elisabeth or Amy or whatever.  I'm sure we'll figure something out.
