Yeah i think we have to just wait. IF it happens it has gotton lost then I will be doin a new parcel for Brandalynn, Because I think she deserves it. Obviously it's personal choice what the other girls want to do.

Agreed. I told Belle not to resend for this reason exactly and the point made by brandalynn.

YAAAY! I'm glad you've got it! Glad all the US ladies are finally getting their's! I actually want to do this again! Looking at everyone else's parcels has given me lots of ideas! If anyone is interested, please message me. :D

Brandalynn, what do you think of the flower gems? Those are the ONLY flower or pumpkin sweeties I could find! haha

The violet candies are awesome! My son and I really like the bacon things. I think my favorite is the fizzie powder candy with the candy stick. It's similar to a candy over here, but ours doesn't fizz. It's really amazing to taste the difference between US starburst and UK starburst. I love Werther's Original. I grew up eating those, but the UK Werther's are more creamy and a little less sweet. I like it a bit better. This was soooo much fun. I'd be up for it again sometime. :D

there is such a difference between the same things, I loved the cherry flavoured starburst but the watermelon flavour made me cough!
I wish we had more grape flavoured stuff over here though and I think lemon heads are amazing now!
Uk chocolate I deffinitley prefer though, much more creamy and less...I don't know us chocolate just didn't taste as chocolatey. If I did it again I'd want to send someone some Belgium chocolate.
Now that's chocolatey :D
I've also got much more ideas and better ideas about what they have and haven't got and what I could send

Ugh, I hate grape flavored things and that is the most common flavor over here. Grape flavors and peanuts....

I agree. the chocolate i got was much creamier and more enjoyable.. suprisingly i was able to eat it with my broken filling and it not bother me. i think ours is too sweet that would be why.
