Customs had some problems with the marshmallow creme I sent her. I'll have to remember not to wrap every single item in the package next time!
I was more concerned about the Baileys...they didn't seem to mind that...

See, that is very odd, because I also sent her marshmallow creme, along with graham crackers and hershy's hugs, and it got to her in good time.
Are you sure it was the marshmallow creme?

I'd sure like to see Magda around more.I think her father is hogging the computer.Maybe she could find some way of distracting him. Or maybe someone could start a fund raiser to get her a laptop.
As for the Marshmallow Fluff,I imagine it has all sorts of nefarious uses we don't even know about!

She'll be back to housesitting away from the computer hog in a couple days
I really don't get how he can tell her she shouldn't be on the computer all the time, and yet she has to get off the moment he gets home. Stupid.

I know PR I am counting the days.
Penguin maybe it's the location you send the package from. I sent Magda a present a few weeks after Christmas and it still isn't there...argh!

It's not that it's beer you're after, it's the fact that it's XXXX. Had it been Coopers you were after, they wouldn't have laughed.
Sorry, state-based prejudice coming to the fore.

Shameless plugging for a month or so.
