Mr. Postman

I love getting mail. I especially love it when the mail isn't bills. I recently experienced the joy of the electricity bill when our electricity company decided to confuse our account with the account for the flat upstairs, and further confuse us with the previous tenants, so we received a £140 electricity bill. We are not paying said bill.

Anyway, the reason I was writing about mail is because I owe massive thanks to the wonderful Virpukka for my package of finnish vegan goodies! It looks like this:


In no particular order, that is: 
- A variety of instant soups, including some berry ones. The strawberry is extremely tasty; it warms you right through and soothes your throat and tastes like liquid pie filling.
- Some crushed peppermint chocolate. I am going to bake with it.
- Panda herbal liquorice. I love panda liquorice! I'd never come across this type though, I usually just buy the fruity ones to gnaw on. Those were the first things to disappear, about as soon as the picture was taken. I liked them a lot.
- Snack bars with chocolate and grains. I've yet to try them; they are being saved for next week when I'll be spending forever in the library.
- Rice chocolate bars. Also being saved.
- Elovena biscuits. Had to hide them from Nyck, he wanted to steal them.
- Cactus pastilles. The box is half gone, they have a very odd taste but I really like them.
- Apple & Raspberry sweets coated in dark chocolate. This was my favourite food item, they are super addictive and I seriously need to find somewhere to get them.
- Two hand-made notebooks. They are beautiful! I'm saving them for something special, because I don't want to ruin them with my usual rubbish.
- A gorgeous hand-made card with a lovely letter inside explaining what everything was so I didn't have to try and read the finnish labels :P

So massive thanks again to Virpukka, she's made my week with all these treats!
