Cozumel Veggies.

Ever since I can remember my mum has had papier mache veggies in the kitchen. I loved them and used to play with them. Yes, I played with veggies - moving on. When my mum moved to Wisconsin these veggies disappeared (read: I'm sure she threw them out) and I missed them terribly. Luckily on her recent trip to Cozumel she picked some up and sent me a picture for proof. I love them, even if they are extra shiny, unlike their original counterparts. Also there are some additions to the original bunch, like the avocado and is that a hot yellow pepper. What is with this new fangled veggie platter?

Haul.

Today when I went downstairs there was a nice big package waiting for me. Evidently one of my housemates had greeted the deliveryman because I was still sleeping =). In it was the most wonderful assortment of goodies from my mum! She always sends the best carepackages and this was to be no different. First of all, It had lots of fun edible goodies: Smartfood, Mrs. Fields cookies to name a few. But it also contained some lovely useful goodies!

 

My skin is winter dry at the moment and my lips are suffering due to lack of appropriate product. This Crabtree & Evelyn exfoliating lip smoother and Honey berry LypSyl will do nicely!

Ahem - I don't know what my mother would think I need this for.

I am officially Soap&Glory's biggest fan. They have the cutest makeup bags, and now I own 4. 

  

I am most excited to use this Voodoo doll and revenge book, obviously. 

I feel like those kids who got the Nintendo 64 and all their basic brain function was channeled into yelling RAWWR! Nintendo 64!!!!:

My Mum is the Best

Besides all her other wonderful attributes and the amazing things she does for me, there is this:

Today I was complaining about my seminar course, in particular: group work. It has been the cause of a great deal of stress lately and my mum's response was:

"You always have these problems in groups because you are a natural born leader."

Plain and simple as that is it? I'll take it.

This pick-me-up-phrase is almost as good as "It's going to be AWESOME, I just know it!" - I'm pretty sure she told me that one before a major highschool presentation - and I'm pretty sure that presentation was awesome, just as she predicted.
