O the timeless Care Package. A true Rite of Passage for the college student. Got my first one on my birthday, yesterday, and let me tell you there was some joy in Room 202 with each discovery. There's just something about getting a package in the mail, and finding bits of home in there. Twix. Bubble Yum. Burt's Bees Lip Balm. Slim Jims (I almost shed a tear over these). Hostess mini-cakes. All the things that made growing up in Southwest Virginia a *unique* and *special* experience.
And I can tell you, reading about the French Revolution and what it meant to the centralisation of the national military is thrilling, but so much more so while gnawing on perfectly spiced beef jerky.
