This is really difficult! I don’t want to take too much. What is the advised amount to take? One,  two, ???

You can take as much or as little as you want. There are no rules other than don't steal the parcel.  Lol

I took 4, one bigger thing and some little things the last time it came to me.

Time to start working on my next additions! I got some new yarn delivered last week.

Here are my selections! The chocolate truffles have melted together due to the heat last week but the choco chunk still tastes delicious! Had to have the hash browns (Idaho potatoes and I’m from Idaho haha) but they are also last their best by date (I’m sure they are still good though!) and the other things just jumped out of the box at me and said take me!
I have added several things and will hopefully add another something from America when my sister arrives next week then I will pass the box on:)

Oooh, those hashbrowns would've jumped out at me, too!  Waffle House do theirs from dehydrated like that, and Waffle House have the best hashbrowns anywhere.  I make hashbrowns, but I'm too lazy to par-boil the potatoes, first, so I don't quite get the right fluffy/crispy texture in mine.

Solid choices -- especially that chocolate that melted into one big lump!   ;D  Actually, my MIL gives me cognac truffles every Christmas, and they often end up in front of the heater before the box is finished off, so I end up with solid lump of truffles, too.  It's amusing because it doesn't look polite, but it tastes amazing.  ;)

Totally agree with JFKimberley, those are solid choices.

And most came from me. Lol

I got those damn hashbrowns just for this box... back in November. It took this long to get to me. But I know they are fine past the BB date. I've kept them safe until I could get them in the box.

And who doesn't need Vitamin D, antibiotic cream and Kool Aid?

Fantastic choices Mecoward; I was really tempted by the chocolate myself.  I'm super jealous of the hashbrown potatoes!

Yup, that's it!  Looking forward to seeing your choices!

Oh, be sure that the total weight of the box remains under 2kg after your item(s) go in, to keep the shipping cost down.
