Just as I was getting worried, I came home from my hospital procedure today to find a pleasantly wrapped package on my doorstep. I knew right away what it was. After settling down I proceeded to open my gift from the motherland, Germany. To my surprise I found an abundance of German chocolates and bonbons. Along with the plentiful deliciousness I found some German coffee which reminded me of when my father visited Germany for school in the 90's and brought the same stuff home. Also in the box was a nifty VW tool kit that should find its use in my kitchen for random odds and ends.

I look forward to next year and finding what else is out there.
