No more birthday parties but I believe that I can still send a gift so I had the goods in the picture delivered to my cousin. She was very grateful because she never expected anything from anyone. The lockdown had taught us not to expect. That is good. In the picture are pickled mangoes, green mangoes, chocolates and fresh guavas. The dog is not included, waheehee.

Our dog actually sniffed the boxes just to be sure that there is no bomb. Waheehee.

@Alexandoy It could be that your dog found a toy bone in the box.

Very nice of you to do and I'm sure she appreciated it very much. So many of us are doing more for others during this time, and I think we need to remember that it's ok to do it all of the time. Cute pup!

Get rid of Barbie, waheehee, my wife would kill me. My cousin's parents were so good to me when I was young so became very close. She loves the pickled mangoes so much.

@LadyDuck actually I sent twice to my aunt (mother of my cousin). They have given me so many favors when I was young like extra money for schooling.

@moffittjc it is a coincidence that when our ancestral home was remodeled in 1968, my parents decided on the crazy cut marbles. It was very expensive according to the architect and we were not rich. But my mother loved it. When my wife and I bought our home in 2001, we were surprised to see that it is also marble and crazy cut.

Thank you for the compliments. When I love a person, I usually do that - send them something that I can afford.
