flying fish and salt breads

i had such a great evening. aunty mo and uncle paul and sammy came to deliver some bajan goodness to me. i have to admit, when i opened my door and saw them i teared up a little bit. it felt so nice to see some family. family that i have been missing so terribly. i gave them the grand tour, which consisted of standing by the front door, where they were able to see the entire apartment. aunty mo bought me some flying fish and a pack of salt breads (and creme eggs and mini eggs for easter), which i am so excited to eat. i would have devoured some of it already if they hadn't invited me to eat dinner with them. mum also sent up some stuff, including a card with lovely drawings from ben and dad (with some (very much needed) money), a harbour lights 2012 t-shirt, some just-in-case medicine with her own instructions written on each box, some snacks from barbados, pepper sauce for my roommates to try. niza especially puts hot sauce on everything so i can't wait for her to try it! mum even included a little barbados flag in her care package, which was so cute. i wish i didn't have to work tomorrow so i could have spent four consecutive days with the fam, but i'm super excited for friday and saturday. friday is sammy's graduation - she's such a big kid now. and saturday we're going to universal which i can't wait for! apparently the first thing we're doing is the harry potter ride, which i know i'm gunna scream in. i overheard people on the bus talking the other day, and this one guy said that that's the only ride he can't do. so we'll see how that works out. i'm so happy right now, having family so close, and knowing that even more family is coming next week! still missing everyone terribly and very much looking forward to seeing everyone in summer!
