Hi B -- I had to become a blogger just to post comments on your blog...crazy, eh? We Stanford Placers - 4 legged as well as 2 - are very glad you've arrived in one piece (not to mention how great it is that all your stuff arrived with you too). It's also terrific to see pix, as well. And water in a bag! -- how innovative! how fun! XOXOX Dad

Hot Tips for Mailing
Padded envelopes will be charged less than boxes.
What you send should be able to survive on its own for a month or so before delivery...
...and may be subject to the ravages of heat, small animals, and theft.
Do not let this discourage you - I am ridiculously grateful for raisins, old New Yorkers, and other minor treats (see below).
Also, I will write back!
Wish List
tortellini
pictures - I like to see what you're up to
Sharpies
pretty much anything from the skincare aisle - face wash, nice sunblock...in addition to making the world a better place, I hope to do some serious product testing while I'm here. Leave a comment if you want specific suggestions - I have plenty :)

congrats, bebe. if you get TWO bags, you can hook one of 'em up to the other end and just switch when the top one's empty!
