I'm going to Florida next week.  You're taken care of, no worries.  Star Crunch will be on their way to you shortly after my return the following week!  ;)

OMG!  You're a star.  What're the Lil' Debb's called that are yellow sponge w/chocolate in the middle and chocolate shell; shaped like a hexagon, I think.  Mmmm.  Those are even BETTER than Star Crunch.  I love that fake, chemical aftertaste!  Bliss!

My sister brought loads of JollyTime microwave popcorn over.  Mmm.  Watching the Crufts dog show whilst savouring the fluffy kernals covered in oil w/a little butter flavouring.  Life is good.

I know Liz, I was thinking that very thing. Im so glad she sent it express mail instead of slow boat. That WOULD have been a disaster. :o

Uh, oh.  Now I'm worried about your foodie package!  I'm afraid that I didn't wrap your syrup or salad dressing in extra baggies!

I'm going to worry now until it arrives.   [smiley=anxious.gif]

No worries - my husband is a newly converted Little Debbie freak so plenty will be making its way back with me.  ::)

Sounds like my mum.  Even the simplest letter or card has the envelope sealed with masking tape.  Anything that might get bashed has about 200 yards of bubble wrap around it AND masking tape.

My grandmother is worse:  She puts scotch tape (ie, cello tape) over the address in case the envelop gets wet and the ink runs.  Nevermind that it's written in black ball point pen.  God bless her cotton socks.  :)

Its OK Kellie. Im experienced at cleaning up syrup messes now! :)
Should I worry about your picallili and marmalade mixing with your naan bread mix? Oy vey! Well blame Frank he packed it himself. He put a lot of care into that package wrapping each item in newspaper and the glass in bubblewrap but now Im also a little worried!

I'm seriously worried about my foodie packages now.  I taped them with packaging tape, but since I'm paranoid and neurotic at the best of times, I'm going to worry until Stacy and Pebbles get their packages now.

You must tell me what condition they arrive in so that I can put right  any disasters, syrup or otherwise.

LOL, I can't remember what I asked for now!!!  Oh well.  I have not received it yet,  assuming you have not received mine and Pebbles either (Sent a little late!!!)

Sorry about the spill, that is terrible!
