Wow, this is more than i could have ever imagined. First off i got the package on Dec 24 (the day we actually celebrate christmas in Germany) but unfortunately me and my family were already off to visit relatives for the holidays. I came back today on the evening of Dec 26 and got the package from my neighbors and was so excited!

I knew my Santa is from California (which is amazing, i always wanted to go there) because she messaged me for shipping late (which was absolutely fine). The first thing i noticed in the box was the lovely written christmas card, an orange bag and a bag of hersheys kisses. Also in the box were three beauttifully wrapped gifts:

The first one was an awesome assortment of In-N-Out Burger Gifts. Let me tell you, i've heard so much about this place and their great burgers, i freaked out a little. Inside was an awesome tshirt, a pin, a paper hat, stickers and: THE SPREAD. I can't wait to put that stuff on some burgers and pretend i'm in california. (Unfortunately one of the packs burst open, but the others are still fine! Will eat them asap ;)).

Next gift: I could not believe these actually existed, but i've seen them on the internet once: BACON BOWLS. I love bacon and now i can make bowls to eat out of it, this is an insanely smart invention! F'ck yeah 'murica!

The third one was the best one to open! A US-flag box (which i will keep!) with looooooots of american candy i've heard so much of and always wanted to try! Hershey bars, nerds, butterfinger, pop rocks, WARHEADS, and sooo many more! Seriously i could not be any happier at this point. BUT WAIT THERES MORE!

Finally i opened the orange bag and: MORE CANDY! YISS! AND OMG HOT SAUCES, HOW DID YOU KNOW I LOVE THAT STUFF? Also: Freaking awesome souvenirs from America! American money, rocks and shells from San Diego beaches, a pine cone from alaska, a fortune cookie, pens from her families business (greatly appreciated as a student) and a little buddha face from her town which has an actually really funny backstory. I hope i didn't forget to mention anything, i'm still blown away.

Huge Thank you to Kara from California, i only asked for some candies and got sooo many more freaking awesome things, this is seriously the best gift i got this year and i cant believe how lucky i got the first time participating. The little notes were a sweet touch and i'll keep the souvenirs forever. I'll share the candy with my sister who also loves american stuff! This text got longer than i thought, but i'm still so happy! I really hope you and your family had a great christmas and i wish you a real happy new year! Now i can't wait to visit california some time.
