I just want to make sure I did the right thing...
Then you actually did declare all of the items, as they were explicitly listed on your blue customs declaration form. It would be impossible for them to claim you were trying to sneak these items in when it was written out for any CBP officer to read right on your form...and if anything, writing it on the form is even better than a verbal declaration, as you have significantly better evidence that you did declare these items (rather than it being just my word against hers) should anyone claim you were trying to sneak something in.
