Mom Violy and Carmina’s dining experience at Dean & DeLuca

  Mom Violy told me she wanted to order the Paella Negra from Dean & Deluca. Carmina suggested we dine in since we’d never really tried their main courses, always just getting takeout with the cream puffs . Mom Violy agreed, and we arrived about thirty minutes before the lunch rush began. The service was very slow, even though we had ordered ahead of time. They mistakenly brought out the Paella Valenciana , despite Mom Violy repeating the order three times to the person who took it. It turned out the cook on duty made the error, even though it was written down clearly. We know Paella Negra takes a long time to prepare, which is why Mom Violy had requested it to be cooked beforehand.

Do you remember those care packages?


Do you remember those care packages?

I remember making those care packages for your friends when they are traveling far away from you attending a new University staying off to a boarding house.

Just like what you see in the movies during the time you're young being in boot camp parents sending you goods for you with tons of goodies that are your favorites.

No matter what this package looks familiar to me receiving it online having it delivered to my home. It may not be coming out from my mailbox or front porch we often see in California.

Otherwise, the packaging reminded me those days to reminisce back to memory lane having others experience it is something feeling special for others.

How to make a care package is some tips I will give you think what the person may love the most it doesn't necessarily have to be some food. You can be creative making one for your family, friends and those you have a relationship just take it as a gift.

It can be a treasure box filled with memories you have shared with that person before they move off to their new place.

It can also be assorted pictures in a picture frame, snacks that you have shared among each other to give that person is still next to you when they are really off somewhere else you imagine can go wild thinking what to put inside the care package.

You can also give them a gift certificate or money to treat themselves off to enjoy where they are.

My care package was bubble wrapped before I can even open it up.




It was inside a plastic Tupperware.



You can even put a note/letter either on top of the box or container all depends upon how you want to be creative.



Example:
These are snacks, candies and a toy that brings out my childhood memories to let me go back in time.


How you make your care box all depends upon what you want to put inside your care package this is just a sample of what I made for myself off from shopping online.

Enjoy what you will make for someone, and I am sure they will be loved by you for making the time to do it just for them.
