An addition to the list...

I thought of a couple more things, especially after looking through the Cusmapa Volunteer spice cabinet.

Most of the spices I could find here, but the quality is horrible. So if you can just chuck on of these in a package, that would be awesome!

Spices I would love to have sent (written in the order that I use the most):
-Ground Cinnamon
-Chile flakes
-Ground Nutmeg
-Cumin
-Ground ginger
-Bay leaves
-Italian seasoning
-Ground all spice
-Mustard seed
-Fennel seed
-Spice packet to make Chili too!

Some other small things I thought of:
-Stickers (all kids love them!)
-Uni-ball pens, or nicer writing pens
-If anyone can find a light-weight wooden mortar & pestle, I would be forever grateful
-Cooking books
-Cranberry supplements (to keep the urinary tract nice and healthy)
-Vitamin C vitamins
-Tampons w/applicators (I know this sounds gross but it costs $5 for a pack of 10 tampons here! Please help!)

Thank you again to everyone who has asked me what I need!

On the subject of packages, I have a couple recommendations for decorations so maybe there might be a decreased chance for Nica customs to snoop through it.
-Make sure everything is listed on the packing slip
-Put religious Mother Mary, Jesus, Cross, etc. stickers or drawings all over the box
-Write phrases like "En Dios Creo" and "Jesus Te Ama", or any other religious phrases you can think of in spanish or english

Why am I suggesting this? Well, hopefully they will be more superstitious to steal anything out of the box if it seems like a fellow Christian has sent it. Not sure if it works, but it's worth trying right? It sucks that the Nica post office does that to people! My letters have even been sliced open and then they have had the nerve to put a stamp that says the letter came "broken". Right...like we believe all the letters my friends have sent have come broken...in the same spot too!!! There's too words to describe that sort of shadiness...B....S....

Once you mail a package from home let me know so I can approximate the 3 weeks or month it should take to get here. Thanks again to everyone! I miss you all so much!
