What you want? Baby, I got it (Dove)

Iºve gotten a few emails from folks asking about things we want or need here. So we came up with our first list of stuff that weºre missing or just canºt get here that is "essential." Before we left, we gave everything away on freecycle, so if you want to send us stuff feel free to go on your local free cycle site and ask for it for free, we donºt mind used! Here we go:

A veggie peeler
Pillow cases (you canºt buy them individually here) - yellow, orange or white would be cool
Fitted sheets (again, canºt get them here and itºs driving me nuts!)
Art, as in stuff to hang on our walls, preferably stuff our friends have made!
Soy sauce
Hot sauces
Boullion (like those things you make soup with)
Pot holders (donºt have them here, my hands are not happy)
Towels (either bath or beach, the ones here donºt absorb anything)
Flame deflector (for gas stoves)
Backpacks (like school ones, Eastpack or Jansport or whatever - joshºs broke and we bought another and it lasted literaly 2 days before it broke)
Books!

Itºs expensive to ship stuff here if it weighs a lot, but stuff under two pounds is really cheap in a bubble envelope, so if you can find a couple free towels or sheets on free cycle, and send them seperatly in an envelope, it would probably only cost a few dollars in shipping!

Much love, and more pics soon,

Dove

What size sheets? Full, queen or (could you be so lucky) king?

I can't wait to see some pics of your new place. The description that I read sounds great--especially the ocean view!!!
Enjoy every moment together--it's wondeful that you have each other.
