It said it was from my "Secret Sister," but the return address was mine as recommended in the "Secret Santa" Swap... So, please forgive me - I just don't know which swap to post in! LOL!! I really love the herb seeds you sent - thank you SO much! I've been planning my garden for the past couple of weeks and the dill, basil AND cilantro were all on my list! Thank you SO much! It was like a breath of spring opening your card! Now I can't wait to get digging! Hugs - Nini

All I can say is 'wow', my SS is amazing! I received a beautifully hand painted canvas bag with my name on it and all sorts of wonderful goodies came inside it! Soap, raspberry tea, a lovely little note card adorned with a bow and little lady bug, the brooch is beautiful, it looks vintage ( which is what i love)! I am trying to figure out how tO post a picture, I only use my iPhone for Internet so bear with me! Thank you SS, you really did a wonderful job, I can tell alot of though and care went into what you sent .

Greetings Farmgirl Secret Sister! Took my golden retriever for a walk and as I came in, checked the mailbox and your note was waiting for me to find...thank you for the warm wishes for St. Patrick's day,and the sweet clover stickers. May you also have a happy day. The card with the Angel is wonderful. I truly believe in Angels. Noticed on the back, Guideposts...so you must believe too, XO. Used to receive the Guidepost magazine always enjoyed the stories of inspiration. Later today, will be heading out to the greenhouse. The weather is starting to change, more Robins out and about, and the song of birds are becoming clear and beautiful. Waiting for the wild onions to be ready to harvest...yum. I apologies if I have not answered your questions. Hum, I collect Strawberry anything, even wear it as a perfume. Burn candles, collect tea cups with strawberries even have a Strawberry Shortcake Christmas ornament. Lately, I have been loving the color Dusty rose pink and bright new leaf green...go figure, waiting for Spring to arrive. Anything you send me is from your heart dear S.Sis and send prayers of gratitude back your way....have a bright sun shiny day. With love....

Dear Secret Sister,
I came home to a lovely package from you. I loved your pot holder. I think your crochet was awesome girl. Keep it up! I loved the colors. I put the magnet on my fridge so I will think of you every time and love the soap. It was such a wonderful blessing. Thank you so much.
hugs

Oh my goodness, look what I got today from my SS! A Garden wall hanging, that had a secret envelope on the back with the seed packet in it, and a Gardening book. That book and the seeds will come in handy as I prepare for my garden this year!!!
Then a coupon keeper that is so pretty and neat, along with a homemade luggage tag. WOW I will use that for sure as I have a cruise to go on beginning April 2nd. Going on a cruise for my bday which is April 1st!!
Not to mention she also gave me that luscious Cocoa recipe I had asked her for in a previous posting. Can't wait to make that stuff, it was so GOOOOOD!!!!
You are spoiling me rotten Missy, but I sure do love it.
THANK YOU!!
Terri

I received the most wonderful St. Patrick's Day package from my secret sister the other day! I love St. Patty's Day, how did you know??!!! :)
The banner is wonderful! I am going to be spending the day with some of my grandchildren tomorrow, they all happen to be more than 1/2 Irish, and I am bringing the banner with me, making cookies with the cloverleaf cutter, and filling the triangle pouch with goodies! I want to know if you made the pouch? It is just too cute, and I never saw anything like it before. I'm going to tell the kids they can have the goodies but I have to take the pouch home for other St. Patty's Days! And, of course I will be wearing the pin!
The Irish beanie baby.... I wanted to tell you what I am going to do with that. I have a nephew who is 16, and in a home for special needs children. He is such a sweetie, but cannot live at home anymore(he is autistic and has other issues). I have been wanting to send him a package, and as soon as I saw the Irish teddy, I knew I wanted to send it to him. I know how much Joey will love it, and he will know when ever he picks it up that I am thinking of him!
Boo-hoo, I wish my camera wasn't broken, I so want to post a picture here... thank you so much Secret Sister for making my St. Patty's Day so special! :)

Received a lovely gift last week and realized I totally forgot to post! There was a beautiful card, a notepad which I can never have enough of and a handmade potholder. Thank you for the great gifts!

I'm running a little behind here. Sorry.
I got an awesome patio tomato plant from my secret sister last week. I followed the directions and stuck it in my grow house and I already have about 7 seeds sprouting - sweet! |

I wanted to thank my SS for my awesome gifts that arrived today, they also made my day and helped to make me feel better. My husband left this morning for California to work for a week, then I have been sick and not sleeping for two days so I took myself to the emergency room this morning. Yep, I indeed have something wrong so I am on antibiotics, pain pills and I need to rest for a couple of days. So I was feeling down and sad because my hubby is gone and I just do not feel well. Picked up my mail on the way home and I had a package of goodies from my sweet SS. As you can see I got two magazines, one of them MJF and Country Side two of my favorite magazines, two skeins of yarn, two patterns to make aprons for me and hubby too, some wonderful castile soap Secret Sis made herself that I will use later in my bath, Calico Paper Dolls to make, and a book called The Town That Food Saved by Ben Hewitt, that I can not wait to read. Also a lovely card made another farmgirl Mary Fox who I love to trade with:-) It seems my Secret Sis knows me well as I received all my favorite things and I feel so special. Thank you so much for making my day. I feel better now!
Farm girl Hugs,
Debbie

I'd like to thank my Secret Farmgirl Sister for the wonderful surprises that she sent my way. Many of our Farmgirls may not know, unless you are living in California, that we've had alot of rain and storms with gale winds as well. So a lovely package from my Secret Farmgirl Sister really adds some missing sunshine into the day.
Thank you for the magazines, the cross-stitch kit, the book, and the cotton yarn. When one thinks of cotton, they may be thinking dishcloths. Well, I actually make my Chemo Caps during the warm months of the year with the cotton and cotton-blends because cotton is a breathable fiber. Summers can be very hot and humid. So the cotton yarn and those cotton-blends work up nicely for lots more than only dishcloths and facecloths.
Thank you also for the note and getting to hear from you. Hope your March is marching along on a happy tune!
