Today the postman delivered a package from Japan. Walking between the postbox at the gate and my front door I read the customs label, "chocolate, cookies, soup".... Anticipation built...
Only a few minutes later I opened the package to find these.
Ahh...Godiva chocolates. Aren't they great? Japanese packaging is exquisite - a feast for the eyes (and also for the stomach). And... Morozoff Cookies
Both the DBEM and I are very happy!
But the most intriguing are these?
What do you think these might be? Initially I thought they were individually wrapped macarons. Closer inspection and I saw the word Soup. Still the penny didn't drop. Ahh savoury macarons, I thought. How unusual. But no, these are cup-of-soup - corn potage, consomme and tomato. Guess what I will be taking to work for lunch next week.

How unusual!
What a lovely gift. I hope you enjoy your special treats.
Ye I agree. Unusual but hopefully tasty. I'll update after eating.
The DBEM will eat the chocolate; it is Lent you know;-). I will enjoy the soups.
Lovely gifts Margaret, enjoy.
Mother enjoyed the chocolates and I loved the soups so we are both happy!
Custom declarations can be a spoil-sport! But that chocolate does look delicious.
