Patty-
I mailed off my popcorn - almost 150 packets of popcorn.
Also, I mailed some books. Harry Potter (the last 2 books in the series), some John Grisham novels and some crossword puzzle books. Wasn't there a request for "1776"? I'm not done reading it yet but I'll send it when I'm done if it's still wanted.
No fanfan?
