Hi hijinx, we like their bistro chicken breasts stuffed with cream cheese and bacon and their garlic parmesan wedges. They go perfectly together and surprisingly very tasty. The chicken breasts are individually wrapped and usually $3.99 each but I wait until they go on sale for 2.99 each and buy about 6 at a time. Haven't tried anything else and haven't bought anything for a while because I'm trying to cook more healthy meals. Good luck!

whaaaaat? I didn't know people were mailing packages already! I need to get on it!

GREAT PACKAGE!! I love it when people go above and beyond!

So, I woke up with a blazing headache today and downed 2 extra strength tylenols first thing and went back to bed. Matthew woke me up a while later to give him a ride to school. Grudgingly, I got ready, went outside, nearly broke my hip getting to the van, it was so icy. Van doors were frozen shut! Are you kidding me? Matthew tried to get them open for a good few minutes but they wouldn’t budge. Not ONE door. Forget it, ok, take a snow day. Great, I’m grounded home for the day. Well, so much for getting an early jump on grocery shopping. Headache was still blazing…perfect start to the day.

We started to straighten up a bit, but he was feeling crummy too (he’s getting the flu). So we watched tv for a while and chatted. Then I said ok, let’s resume cleaning up…ding dong….ok who is that? We didn’t finish straightening up yet L. Surprise company? Who is at the door? It was Canada Post delivering THIS monstrous box! Hmm what could it be, what could it be? I remembered briefly reading someone in the thread already mailed their package to their buddy. Hmm…could it be?? YUP, it was MY box!! Holy cow, are you serious?? I’m STILL shopping for my buddy.

The mailman said whatever it is, it’s HEAVY! Ok, I took the box and put it in the corner as I was wiping down my cupboards and was going to resume the dishes when Matthew shouted...”OPEN IT NOWWW MOM!!” LOL…so I gave in and did!! Dishes and cupboards be damned! Here’s what was inside:

Things I got in my package from Armygirl_29

• Wilton Cake pop mold (OMG, OMG, OMG! I can’t believe you got it for me!! J)

For my daughter Melissa
I haven’t opened her box, although I wanted to. I thought I will let her open it and let us both be surprised. Once she gets home from work later this evening, I will update this post with the contents of the box.

Armygirl_29, thank you so, so much for the amazingly sweet and thoughtful package! Geez, I think “thank you” can’t express my gratitude to you. Your kindness and generosity has overwhelmed me. I am deeply touched by the thought and care you put into my package. It was really like Christmas morning!! Honestly! I love everything you picked out for me – absolutely everything! I’m so excited to use my cake pop mold, which I will probably do tomorrow…after I go to the gym…HAHAH!!

You went over and above the requirements of this train and I DO feel truly spoiled rotten today! I was having a pretty crummy day until the mailman rang the doorbell. I packed everything back in the box for Melissa to open when she gets home as she is helping me with my buddy list and I want her to see how generous you were to me.

Thank you again!!
