I only was able to put it in the mail today - as I found out the village I live in has no postcards. :-(

Maybe they send it to her when she is home again.

Same for me - it takes mail some 1.5 weeks from this side of the planet to travel up north.

But you can't wish someone to stay longer in the hospital, really. :)

Reminds me: Who (what?) is (a) Twank?

Sassafras - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sassafras is a genus of three^[1][2] species of deciduous trees in the family Lauraceae, native to eastern North America and eastern Asia.^[2]

Originally, it was the main ingredient in root beer. At some point the medical community discovered that if you could drink several hundred gallons of sassafras extract in two minutes you had better odds at getting some obscure disease. So sassafras content was reduced or cancelled from some root beers. However, sugar content in root beer has gone up over the decades with no apparent outcry, myself excepted.
