The rest of the package 📦 from the lovely @Carolyn11215 has arrived! I‘m loving all of it, but I‘m an especially big fan of the soap! It smells so wonderful. I love receiving local products, it makes me experience a big amount of Fernweh (german term, like the opposite of homesick). Can‘t wait to try the chocolate ❤️.
Thank you Carolyn for all the care and attention you invested for me! I feel honored 🙏

Carolyn11215 Yay...I‘m so glad it arrived and that you really love the soap. New Mexico is famous for many things...one of them being soap makers. I almost always include one in packages because they smell so divine! Trader Joe‘s has amazing chocolate. The peanut butter roundels are a favorite of mine! Enjoy!! 7y

"For conveying ideas, novels are among the least functional and most decorative of the blunt instruments" (from "the rest of the novel")
