Visited the post office this morning and sent mine off to the middle of the country! Should be there in a handful of days or so. Also, if you get a package with a shotglass and some other random bits, it’s from me as I didn’t put a card or anything in it. Oops! ---

I have yet to venture out into the throngs of vacationers here to obtain multitudes of goodies. Movement is painful at the moment. Please be patient with me - it’ll be worth the wait. **Silenus** (and other veterans of the exchange) can vouch for me. And attest that I’m \*\*always \*\*late sending my stuff out. I will not flake. I will persist. I will overcome. You (my recipient) will be happy. It just might take a bit. Trust me, I used to work for the government. ---

There wasn’t a return address on the package, but I am going to assume mine came from you unless you say otherwise, **Teuton**.

I’m also strangely comforted to see that we aren’t alone in generating weird Olympic mascots … Thank you!! ---

Yes, that’s mine! I thought I’d written a return on the label, but obviously not! The Olympic swag is getting harder to get hold of now, a mere 7 years after we hosted. I might have to stock up. Glad you liked it! ---

It looks like I get a taste of my own medicine because I got a package but I don’t know who it’s from! A wonderful [del]kitchen scale[/del] package from The Sunflower State (I didn’t know that!) of Kansas! I got an awesome state-themed shot glass, some chocolate covered sunflower seeds, a “drink local Kansas” keychain, a postcard and two mini bottles of alcohol! Thanks so much mystery person! I’ve never been to Kansas and don’t have anything from there, so it’s doubly cool ---

One of the gifties I recieved was a tiny bottle of tequila. I used that today. I do not drink the stuff straight, see, but I was making homemade icecream, peach to be specific. I ended up with about an extra cupful of the mix, before freezing. So I chilled it, poured in the tequila, poured that over ice, and sipped away. The only problem is that is was so good I want another, and I have no more tequila. And what would/will I do when the icecream runs out? ---

One egg 1/3 cuo sugar 230 ml light cream/half and half 1/2 tsp almond emulsion one small peach, peeled, and chopped up in a blender one airline size bottle of tequila. Whir everything together, til it is nice and creamy. Pour over ice and enjoy! This recipe gives slightly more ice cream mix than I had to use, but it is hard to make a recipe that uses less than a full egg. ---

Yes, sorry! Thank you! The Kauai shot glass made me smile, I visited years ago when I was stationed on Oahu, and loved loved it. I always tell people who are planning a Vaca to HI to GO TO KAUAI! And my 3 y/o latched on to the little plane as soon as he saw it. Unfortunately, it lost its vertical stabilizers during a ditch in to rough seas during tubby last night 🙂 Cool other swags as well, thank you! ---

Holy shit!!! And I thought I went over the top with my packages. We have a new champion: **Inter Alia.** From the heart of the Pelican State I got: a truly awesome shot glass, all Mardi Gras colored, some Tony Chachere’s Dirty Rice, a can of “Slap Ya Mama” spice mix that my wife loves, a bottle of “Bayou Butt Burner” hot sauce that is going in tomorrow’s Bloody Mary, and a bottle of Bayou rum. Note that I did not say a mini of rum. :eek::eek::D:D Young lady, I pass the “Nothing Succeeds Like Excess” baton to you. Bear it proudly, and keep your head down. Barry looks mean.
