You're very welcome! And I'm glad it has arrived!
My little jar of Aji de Amarillo (Peruvian chile paste), that I ordered on March 6 and was shipped on March 7, is still zinging around the country! I've lost track of the delay notices, but there have been at least four.
It finally arrived! This little jar, ordered on March 6, arrived at my post office box on Tuesday, March 25. Why it languished so long in carrier facilities is a mystery. That said, it was beautifully packed: triple padded bubble wrapping. I'd been worried that it would have been damaged in transit, but I think it would have survived any abuse short of being driven over by the delivery truck.
Now I'm set to make the Peruvian chicken stew I've been planning for a while.
