Hidden History of Tacoma: Little-Known Tales from the City of Destiny | 
What can I say but wow, wow, WOW!! So many cool goodies!! Three chocolate bars 😋 All the food looks (& smells) amazing! I didn‘t realize Aplets & Cotlets were from WA. My husband‘s grandma used to send them to us at Christmas, & I really like them. I can‘t wait to get into the books. I love the haunted history/weird history genre. And Ted Bundy! I forgot he was PNW. I admit I was hoping for something Bigfoot - love the sticker! #hometownswap
MicrobeMom Wow! Great package! 7y
CSeydel What you can‘t see in the photo is Andrea has added Post-it‘s to the Tacoma history books with cool tidbits of information. Thank you all the thought you put into this! You noted the Jennifer Bastian murder case ... I don‘t know if you know that I‘m a science writer, and I just did a piece on Parabon Nanolabs, the company whose “genetic genealogy” service led to the arrest in that case. I covered the Tacoma PD press conference (online). (edited) 7y
AWahle What a cool coincidence! And I'm glad you like Aplets & Cotlets; we also got those every Christmas when I was growing up in Texas. I wish I'd sent a bigger box of them. 7y

CSeydel @AWahle So I typed too soon - Parabon found the murderer in the Michella Welch case, which was around the same time as Jennifer Bastian but turned out not to be the same guy. I knew the name sounded familiar, but after I typed that comment I had a feeling I was remembering something wrong. 7y

AWahle The community was just so happy both murders were solved. Weird that it was within weeks of each other. 7y
