I’m in Belgium, home of waffles and chocolate… a far cry from these brightly colored Mexican obleas, made of the same material as communion wafers.
I have some great new stories and pictures about candy that I had planned on uploading today, at least until my computer hard drive bit the big one. Again. For the second time this trip. Again, there is lost material, plus the annoyance and cost of dealing with getting my computer fixed a second time. Basically, HP is the devil, and enough about that.
Also, I’m preparing goody bags for some of the people who’ve sponsored me. If you’re thinking about it, now would be a good time - Belgium, Switzerland, France, and Germany lie ahead!

Technology–when it goes bad it’s bad! I can’t wait to see pictures so I hope you can get things running.
Love,
Mom

These remind me of thin Necco wafers!

Yep, now I’m cruising through Europe
And Tim - they tasted nothing like Necco wafers. More like tasteless, bland, puffs of dough. Strangely addictive though - I couldn’t stop eating them!
Malena loves candy. And travel. And both together. And thus, this site was born.

Yum! Any plans for finding Turkish Delight? I’m glad you’re having a good time, and share your disappointment about your computer. Bummer.
Take care! Love - Quita
