My secret sis has struck again, yippee! I received a fun "Domestic Diva" apron kit and a fun bag of vintage buttons, and her always so sweet hand written card. Thank you!! Your gifts kept me occupied when I accidentally locked myself out of my house for two hours last night!

Oh my. I am not quite back in the swing of things since my injury back in April. Wanted to say...I received the cutest kitchen towel doll that really looks good in my kitchen. Sorry I am late. Typing has been hard. : )

I received the most wonderful June/birthday package from my Secret Santa yesterday right on my birthday!!! She sent me a Grandma's Apron from DaveandGrace!!! It is wonderful, I absolutely love it!!! I have been looking for an old fashioned full apron for a while now, and could never find exactly what I was looking for! I put it on right away, and it hangs in a place of honor in my kitchen. She also sent an adorable Rooster Pie Bird, perfect for my kitchen! I can't wait to make a pie now and use it. Hmmmm, maybe a raspberry one tomorrow! And, a wonderful book- The Knitter's Companion, a smaller size, spiral bound book that will be kept right in my knitting basket. No more having to look things up online!!! And, there was a beautiful birthday card too! Thank you so much to my Secret Santa, you really made my day very special! Here is a {{hug}} from me to you! :)

Wow! Was I surprised this month. First of all, my secret santa, don't worry about being late. I can wait! I know that life can throw us lemons sometimes. Second, what a wonderful package I received today. I got a cute handwritten note and a whole set of beautiful Laura Ashley things. I received a mini notebook with my initial, a set of pens, a set of note cards, a journal, some clips and some folders. Thank you so very much for all of the lovely things! And thank you for being so generous! I love everything.

I got another beautiful box full of fun surprises from my wonderfully thoughtful Secret Sister Santa! Inside the beautifully decorated box was a decorative can for which I can think of a million and one uses, a package of burgundy colored sunflower seeds (I love them and have never seen them before), a pair of garden gloves I needed so badly and a package of wonderful pastel chocolates! The chocolates were liquid in form when I pulled them from the box due to the heat but I poured them in tiny plastic containers and refrigerated them. When they are solid again I will enjoy them. They smelled divine! Thank you so very much for being such a steadfast and thoughtful Secret Santa. I always enjoy your notes and the pretty cards you send them on too. Have a blessed week. Vickie

My Secret Sis is so clever she sent me a magic envelope that when I opened wonderful things kept popping out like Mary Poppin's carpet bag. I got an apron with pleats and hand cross stitching that is checked just like one my grandmother had only a different color. They look so cute hanging together on my bakers rack. I also got cute buttons, and a vintage dresser scarf that has the most delicate edging it is like tiny flower petals. Thank you for everything. I love it all.

Oh boy, does my secret santa know what I like. CHICKENS! She sent the most awesome things, a cool box with a chicken on the top and a really cool rod iron wall hanging to put a plant in, with you guessed it, chickens around the edge. Thank you so much Secret Santa, you sure are good at the gifts you have sent. They are each very special.

Many thanks to my SS for the generous gifts received yesterday. How pleasantly surprised I was. I thought it was a package that I was waiting for from Ebay. In my box of wonderful gifts there was a small wooden bucket with an old looking tomato label on it. In the wooden pot was a dish cloth and towel bordered with vegetables on it along with a red dish cloth with yellow border and polka dots. I love polka dots! A matching brown apron with gardening tools, vegtables and a polka dot pocket. So perfect and beautiful. A garden stake with a "Live, Love and Laugh" hanging from it. Chocolate candies, the cutest posy pin, gardening gloves, a tea cozy for those used tea bags with a rooster, green tea, a bird ornament, two generous bags of spices for cooking, Genuine MONTANA Cow seeds, (love it) 2 spreaders, and four beautiful hand stamped cards. I can't express my deepest graditude to you for thinking of me. It made my day and put a huge smile on my face.
I pray that with all the misfortunes you have experienced over the last several months you will begin to heal, find peace within yourself and begin to have glimpse of hope.
Thank you so very much!

I got home from the county fair to find a package in my mailbox. My new Secret Santa is on the job! I got a sweet note and a delightful sachet pillow. It smells wonderfully of apples and spice and is so pretty! It is now hanging in my kitchen. My curiuosity had me squeezing to see if I could tell what was inside, stick cinnamon for one thing, I think.
Thanks so much, Susan

My Secret Sis has done it again!! I just arrived home from a lovely vacation to find a package teaming with fun things! A flower press, a pair of gardening gloves (I just ruined my old ones, this was perfect timing) and a set of gardening shears/pruners. Thank you so much for thinking of me each month, secret sis, your thoughts and generosity are very much appreciated.

My secret sister has been on the ball the entire project. When I arrived back in town Sat. night there was my package and inside was a coffee mug with dragonflies and 3 packages of jelly which I promptly opened one of and had crackers, jelly and herbal tea in my mug! It was a wonderfully relaxing time. I can't find proper words to express to you how much I have appreciated your gifts throughout this year. Problem is I still have NO clue who you are and my curiosity is running amuck! Thank you so much.
Life is full of special surprises |
