I received the perfect "spa" package on Saturday. A beautifully butterfly embroidered towel set. It is perfect! A bar of fragrant soap and a candle.
Thank you so much. I love it all. I am going to try my best to post a photo tomorrow.
I am sorry that I am so late with posting this. Besides my husband needing help with a lot of things, our computer crashed. I am not sure when it will be fixed because I am not sure if it was a virus or a hardware issue. So shhhh..Don’t tell the boss because I am using my pc in the office.

To my Secret Santa, Swap II, Thank you so much for the adorable fairy themed folder filled with all sorts of goodies!! Let's see, there were soft socks, fairy stickers, adorable peach and strawberry fabric pieces, lovely cards, morning glory seeds! and I saved the stamps on the outside to include in one of my mail art pieces. Thanks again so much!! I was thrilled and excited! Smiles, Beth

Well, I posted on the other ss site this morning. i guess i wasn't awake yet. I received a wonderful package on Friday from my ss. It was wonderful. I received some chocolate and some jelly beans which didn't last long. I had a neat stitched pen holder, which I love and use. The most beautiful egg made out of twine and stiffened. Very neat. A hand towel. And I loved this the best, a tatted bunny rabbit. I love all the old arts. I would love to learn how to tat. I love making yoyos . My mom made me a treeskirt of yoyos that were fabrics of my dresses growing up. She also made me and my 2 daughters stockings too. Anywasy, thank you so much for the wonderful package. i loved it. you are a very sweet person. Georgina (knitnpurlgirl)

Cheryl,
I think you would notify Brenda ( LakeOntarioFarmgirl) I think she is the one that assigned partners. Good luck with your move, spend all the time you can with your Mom I lost mine in 2003. Would love just one more daywith her, today would have been her birthday.

| This is a very late thank-you to my secret santa. I received the cutest easter bag filled with little goodies, and another wrapped package with a note to open it later for a pick-me-up. It is a very pretty handmade tote. I love it. Thank you so much. My month has been very eventful and not all good. God gives me courage and strength, and a sweet secret santa to cheer me up. |

A box of goodies arrived from my Secret Santa--and wow, do I ever feel spoiled! There are four lovely placemats (did you make those, SS?), a recipe file box that contained a box of Honey Peach Ginger tea---mmmm! and caffeine-free too! Last but not least, a wonderful new apron! Thanks so much for everything, SS! And...best of luck to your daughter-inlaw in the service. My husband spent 22 years in the Air Force. ;-)

What a delight my secret santa is-----I received a lovely package today. It covered some of my collections, first a musical angel decoration. There were some inspirational note cards with the saying"Warm thoughts can make the sun a little brighter, the sky a little bluer, the world a little nicer" SS, that is so true, your warm thoughts brightened my day. Another saying on a bookmark is also very true---"Love is not necessary to life, but it is what makes life worth living". I will enjoy using that bookmark.
The other thing in this special package is a felted heart on a felted heart on an embroidered rectangle all appliqued to a red and tan striped towel. I have just the place to hang this where I will see it every day. Thank you so much for the wonderful surprises

I got a SS gift Woo Hoo!! Actually I got 2 packages today and both were signed S.S. I am also in the secrect sister round #6 and I am sure one of the packages are from that but I am not sure which one. So I'm posting both because both are so wonderful and I don't want to leave anyone out. One of the packages had the cutest, and I mean cutest, thing I have ever seen. It was a chicken that my S.S. and her 4 year old daughter made out of a gourd. It was sitting in a little basket with a bag of wild flower seeds. The package also had some coffee and a beautiful "Dream" coffee mug. And I am a BIG coffee drinker. The other package had a beautiful Mother's day card and "A Taste of Chicken Soup for the Mother's Soul" book. It also had a packet of Rooster transfers. That will be going on a new kitchen spice rack my husband just finished for me. I have had some very worried thoughts this week (a dear friend that is having a very bad time right now) and your package (which ever one because both are so wonderful) is greatly appreciated. I was originally in the first round of Secret Santa but I understand there have been some changes so I posted in both threads in case my new SS is from the 2nd round.
Begin each morning with a song in your heart. |

Thanks to my sweet secret Santa...I had to go to the dentist today and have 2 crowns done and it was so nice to have a surprise in my mailbox!! Thank you also for the help with the veterens. My dad was in WWII and my son is a Marine pilot and has been deployed 3 times, so I am thankful for folks that think of all the freedoms we have. My box of goodies was precious and I am so thankful!! Smiles, Beth

 To my Secret Santa, Thank You so very much. I adore the crabtree and evelyn soaps...They smell beautiful. And the soap dish is precious. I also can really use the recipe cards,I didnt have any and have been teaching myself canning, pickling etc..I have asparagus coming out my ears so I have been pickling it...since each batch I make different I need to write the recipes down. Thank You! I have been feeling very exausted and overwhelmed lately...this came at the perfect time. |
