Posted - Oct 30 2012 : 5:16:35 PM Happy Halloween Amy aka farmmilkmama, I can't say THANKS loud enough!!!!!!! Our daughter is visiting & has fallen in love with swaps & I think a few things are heading to England with her! LOL
Amy was very generous in sending candles(wonderful smelling), corn candy treat bowl filled to the brim with chocolate treats & decorating sugars. The cutest baking sprinkles shaped like ghost/bats/pumpkins & scary coloured ones. Sure can't find anything like that up here! The hot cocoa is also a brand that we don't have so it will be a treat to taste. It's a miserable cold, wet night here so it will go down great! LOL
Amy made the CUTEST printed Halloween pot holders! What talent! All pieced together...well done! We're having a big Halloween night supper so they're sure will be handy!
Thanks soooo much for being a GREAT swap partner! Hope your kids have a blast tomorrow night!!!!!!! Hoping for a lot of treats & no tricks for you on Halloween night!! Farm Hugs Judy

It had a little pumpkin, a Mountaineers tee shirt, a neon light mask in it, a Fiber bar and some chocolates, It had a fall hand towel and some small Thanks giving center pieces, a pumpkin center piece as well, There was a pumpkin spice bottle of hand soap and smells really good, two magazines, a glow in the dark square hanging thing, little fall sticky notes, some neat orange and black striped Halloween sock, I love socks, and a magnetic face board to put a face on Frankenstein. There was also a small bottle of hand sanitizer and fall pumpkin napkins....I love it all, Thanks Denise for every thing. <3

Remember… Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body. Instead, you should slide in sideways, glass of wine in one hand and chocolate in the other, in a body thoroughly used up, worn out and screaming “Woohooo! What a ride!”

Posted - Oct 22 2012 : 3:53:33 PM Jonnie, What a wonderful halloween package I recieved today! The bag is just so beautiful, everything smelled like fall before I even dug into the bag. The witch towel is great, it is going in the kitchen now. I made lots of halloween potholders, but kept none for myself, how perfect. I love the pumpkin bowl with the teas and chocolate and the window clings will be put on in the morning, perfect timing as I cleaned the windows this morning. The treat bags and cupcake liners will be used for the grands treats. Now I think I will go light a very nice smelling candle and take a hot bath using my new bar of yummy soap :) Thank You for the great package! Happy Halloween! I will post a picture in the morning so everyone can see the special treats I got.
Hugs Julie
