Annika, I should have checked my blog comments before writing, "sorry" Elizabeth was on there so I emailed her through that address, hopefully that will work and we're still partners it looks like!

Dear Corinne, how can I thank you enough for the wonderful gifts that you sent me. I am the most touched by the lovely scarf, it matches my autumn wardrobe and coats so well! Thank you Sister, from the bottom of my heart! Much love to you!

Annika, so good to know it has arrived. You are very welcome. I knitted the scarf thinking of you, it was ready for your birthday so I figured that it would do for Christmas as well, and now I have to find something else. Have a great day, Corinne

To farmallgirl!!!! What a great box of goodies...Heck even the box is beautiful!!! It truly was like Christmas...I am so lucky to have been paired with a kindred spirit...Isn't it funny that we both made each other aprons at the last minute????? ...Time for another cup of tea..

Bridgette, yours went out yesterday. But I didn't do priority, but the next one. So it will be next week probably. But you never can tell about the postal service.

Jessica, yes! yes! yes! I just signed on to tell you how much I love everything. I've been laid up with aches and pains lately but I'm on the mend and finally getting to check back in here. Girls, Jessica does pottery and made me two bowls and a truly wonderful earring/ring keeper complete with a pair of earrings (that she also made). There were also two candles (made by J), some tea and a cute little pencile sharpener. There was so much in the box I'm probably leaving something out. Now that I'm on the mend I yours will be in the mail soon - I'll e-mail you the day I send it.
Thanks so much! I really was like Christmas.
And thanks for putting this together, Annika!

Kayla~I got your package! Thank you so much! So many amazing things! I haven't ever heard of magnesium bath salt and a thingy-ma-bob for the washing machine! Magnesium was just suggested to me to help some of my deficiencies...I love it! Also....my mouth dropped to the floor with all those various yarns to make that cute pear pattern! Thank you so much! The soap is so yummy! It was the first thing I smelled...even before I opened the box!!! And that spray silk lotion...is that for in the sun? It smells so good too! You spoiled me for sure! Thank you!

April, WhoHOO! Glad you got the package. The magnesium products are something I have on hand because I wholesale them...LOVE them. The spray lotion is just a favorite of mine, use it anytime.
I'm just LOVING the jams you made...my Husband especially likes the strawberry. The magazine is PERFECT for me and it was such a cute July way to wrap the towels and cards all up with a little flag. THANK YOU!

Kris, My package was on the front step after work tonight! Yay! You should have seen my kitchen while I unpacked it! :) Too much fun!! I still can't believe they wouldn't let you send it without covering up that bright yellow box, the box is almost exactly the color of my kitchen counter tops!:) Thanks SO much. Yours should arrive tomorrow since we mailed a day apart! THANKS !! |

Bridgette, I am so glad you got it. I hope everything was in one piece. I had fun putting it all together, but I don't like wrapping Christmas presents so I just wrapped to pack so nothing would break.
