Dear Viette and Leon,
When I got the fine Peter Arno book I certainly though the Krolls had done a great deal more than necessary to wish my Merry Christmas. The Chanel soap is wonderful, and quite the envy of the barracks. All such pleasant and feminine things are doubly welcome here. I shall stand under my shower in the sunlight and open air, and as I smell the good old Chanel and feel the bubbles I shall think of the Krolls. Thank you both.
Love 
Chou Chou
