The only fun thing about having a boy in college, is when you meet with the moms of their friends (who became your friends over the years,) to make a care package party. We all bring 10 things and put one of each in a box to mail to our sweet-craving sons. It got to be more fun for the moms than the boys... we gather around food and share the latest gossip on our kids.
So this year, I decided to re-wrap (Valentine's day style) a Hershey's chocolate bar and to hide a lollipop in a sailing boat. Who says it is not age appropriate. Boys be boys: sailboat, hammer and cars, that is what they do not outgrow.
Still to come: a card, (as soon as i find a way to make Valentine's day card, masculine), so that the moms can write a little note to their sons. And a heart shaped brownie, to make just before the party date....
Hearts and cupids are all over the store windows... time to send a care package to my daughter in college. What is a card if it doesn't have al little plus like a chocolate heart? The clear boxes contains jelly beans and the red package is holding a lollipop. Happy Valentine's day!
