Rations

Since we have been in Beijing we have noticed that some food items are just really expensive, or they just don't taste like home. So when hubby had a business trip back to the states last week he brought an extra suitcase.
He filled it!
chocolate chips
cake mixes
brownie mixes
Crystal Light and Propel
Instant Oatmeal
Sugar-free Jell-o
Sugar-free Pudding
See's candy
gel toothpaste (for 13 year old's retainer)
Fahrenheit oven thermometers

So, of course, we had to make brownies today after church! I forgot that we did not have measuring cups so I had to estimate on the oil and water. Then, I assumed the pictures on the oven wrong and ended up broiling our first batch!
Everything, even the little things, create a story!
