A little known side effect of becoming an expatriate is that you will also become a hoarder. Our problem is isolated to candy and toiletries.....
Fortunately we don't eat the candy too fast---we're very good at rationing it out. That is why some of it is in plastic tubs. Except for the Skittles....Chad and I can really put away some Skittles. Most of what you see can't be purchased here. A few things (Hershey's Miniatures, Snickers, Twix, plain M&Ms) are available but just kinda expensive.
This is the closet in our office. We call it "Walgreens". Japanese toiletries are fine, and there are a million different kinds, but well....we just like what we like.
Is it being an expatriate or genetics? Remember Nanny's stashes of toiletries and our parents Y2K cache...

Well, we didn't do this in Greenville so I'm blaming it on being here....that's my story and I'm sticking to it.
DeleteMama is worried about you b/c of the earthquake today. Please call her or e-mail her!

Lucas includes the baby in his prayers now - totally on his own, I did not suggest this. He says "Thank you God for the baby in Aunt Amanda's tummy.".
That's cute. :) i think I can get next week's ultrasound video on Shutterfly. I talked to Mama, the earthquake was small here.
