Wishlist circa 2007
So I know going into the old archives to find this little treasure can be quite the hassle (mom), y'all having wireless instant wonderful internet connections and all, so here's the latest. My disclaimer remains the same that I am doing superb, worldy material goods or not. But I will say that every girl loves her chocolate, and People magazine, and beef... ok so maybe not every girl, but this girl does anyway so go nuts, ooh nuts!
Thank you in advance, a note of encouragement is always appreciated and patience is required. I know the post office will tell you a package should arrive in 4-10 days but those are American days which equal about 4 weeks African time. Our packages arrive from Ouagadougou every Monday and Thursday and our theory is that they wait until they can fill a cattle truck with them before sending them up the treachorous path north. In any case, you will get a 'thank you' note from me but I think they send those by donkey cart so again, patience. Thank you!
