A big ol' box arrived for me over the weekend. I often get care packages this time of the year from my in-laws for Easter, so that's what I thought it was. To my surprise, it was a gift from my snack exchange Santa.

Inside was a HUGE assortment of goodies and lots of Easter surprises. There were oodles of gummies and sour candies which my husband and I loooove! It's so nostalgic every time I bite into a Gusher or Hello Kitty fruit snack.

I also got chocolate chips for baking. This is so amazing because it's really hard to come by in Japan and annoying to buy individually wrapped chocolate bars to chop. I can't wait to make some sweet sweet cookies, blondies, pizookies, extra chocolate brownies, chocolate dipped strawberries...Okay I'm getting too excited/hungry!

The Easter themed edibles were absolutely adorable and scrumptious. No one does peanut butter/caramel combinations like 'MURICA! There were also Easter themed non-edibles like derpy little chicks which I can't wait to show my Japanese students. They're gonna be so jelly!

The absolute best surprise was an Easter Hello Kitty beanie baby! My in-laws usually send me a box with something like this inside for Easter every year but there was no bunny Kitty-chan this year...until my snack goddess delivered! It's TOO CUTE! Thank you for including something so thoughtful. You deserve all the karma, rewards, gold, high fives, hugs and kisses in the world!

From the bottom of my heart and belly, thank you!
