My partner and I have connected. Got her Fall goodies yesterday. Beautiful autumn colored cuptowels, potholder, candle, and a mini thick book on soups. Soups are my favorite cold weather meal. Can't wait to try out the Pumpkin sheet cake with carmel icing. Thanks, Barabara. Your package will be on its way when you requested.

Susan, I got your package yesterday. The recipes look so yummy. I am going to make the shrimp scampi right away. That is one of my favorite dishes. Thank you so much for the cute towels and the pot holder. I am glad it is red as that is one of my kitchen colors. Just perfect.

Nancy, I'm glad you got your package. The Shrimp Scampi receipe is one of my favorites and is always a hit. Especially here in Florida. I always get "raves" when I serve it to family and friends. I loved your note and the holder for the receipe is adorable. Maybe we can meet sometime since we are both here in Florida. We've been to Fernadina Beach several times. If you ever get to Vero Beach, let me know. Hoping to meet in the near future. Susan
OK, I'm ready-Let's go. |

Christmas arrived at the Fischer Household early this year, oh but I love Fall. Winnie thank you so very much for the wonderful fall goodies, Your Coffee Blend, Apple Cinnamon Potpourri, beautiful dish cloth that is too pretty to use but it makes a wonderful fall doily, and the yummy recipes, the Johnny Appleseed Prayer will be added to our Thanksgiving Prayer. Thanks so much for such wonderful and thoughtful gifts. Farmgirl Hugs, Debbie

I got my package from my partner and love my goodies! The dishtowel is darling and went strait to the oven door and the kids loved the preserves that you sent as well (so much that they didn't save me any - lol) I loved the idea of the sewing pattern for packing the goodies in the box - I will have to remember that! The recipe sounds yummy too - we are going to try it on game night this week :) Thanks so much! |

Sabrena, putting together your package with some wonderful stuff I found over the weekend--even one thing made by our very own, lovely Miss Wilma who is featured in Mary Jane's Idea Book!! I will be sending it out by, if not on the 24th--the work week has begun!

Jeri...so glad that you got it!!!! The altered spoons are so much fun! Glad that you liked it. I even put the bling in the middle of your Flower...it was rather plain before that. And I loved making the Fall Washclothes for you. And even though I didn't send you a Recipe Card...I figured maybe a whole Magazine of them would make up for it. Ha Ha!
Looking forward to mine from you!
blessings, peggy

Wow, Marcy! You must know I don't know where to start..I am really overwhelmed! Mailed your package out this morning and picked up one from you..how did you get inside my head? I'll have to put a picture up of the goodies you sent. My DH and DD were sitting at the table for the unveiling. I love all the decorations. The towels look great on my new stove. The ceramic pumpkins, "love" hanger, row of shelf pumpkins, Betty Crocking fall baking recipe book (How did you know I like to play with food?), not one -but two knit dishcloths (with designs I haven't mastered yet. Potpouri(?) yum smell, a pattern for apron, tea cozy, place mat and runner with embroidery design (redwork-yippee! And, fun, fall socks. Oh my goodness! And the pumpkins wrapped in sage green fleece tied with pink ribbons. It's probably just a good thing you didn't have a bigger box. lol Marcy, I feel truly blessed, and not just a little spoiled. I know my box to you won't compare..but it is wrapped with lots of farmgirl hugs to fill in the corners! Thank you so very much!

Marcy, how could I have forgotten to mention those really neat table mats in fall colors. Were they crocheted, and did you make them? I really love those, and would love to make some for Christmas gifts for DD, DIL and DGD. Thanks, again!

I got the best package from Beth Jones today. It was FULL of fall stuff-a wonderful candle, beatiful placemats, dishtowel, and potholder. Also a fall themed welcome wall hanging and a cute basket held by a scarecrow. AND some recipe cards a coupon holder and some pumpkin salt and pepper shakers. Also was a package of silk(?) fall leaves which I have been looking. I am afraid I left something out, but just know, Beth, that is all wonderful and appreciated-made the ending to a full Monday really special. I have a bit more to finish your package, and I am mailing it out Wednesday morning.
Thanks again for the very very specisl box!!!!!!

I received a wonderful package in the mail today from Julie (Treelady). It was overflowing with not only a delicious recipe for Apple cake, but also had so many goodies! Just to name a few... An apple corer/slicer, apple soy candle melting beads, beautiful crocheted dish scrubbie, a crocheted apple cozy (too cute!!) and a lovely crocheted apple hot pad. Oh and then there was the caramel coffee- all tucked into a lovely fall wooden box! Boy was I spoiled for sure in pure farmgirl style! Thank you from the bottom of my heart Julie. Smiles,

Judith,
I got the most wonderful surprise in the mail today. I can't even begin to thank you for all of the wonderful things you put into my box. Saltwater taffy? Really? I could live on saltwater taffy!! It's one of my and my youngest son's favorite things in the world! The candles and candle holder are so pretty, love the dishclothes and I am so glad that you decided to put them in. It doesn't matter that I make them myself, I can always use more and I love the one's that you included. The floss is great as I do a lot of embriodery and I am always looking for more colors. The yarn is beautiful 'Simply Soft' being one of my favorite yarns! The jelly's look so good, again, my youngest son is going to flip as he LOVES jelly. And the roving? Oh, I could not stop touching it! It's such a beautiful color and it's so very soft. I already know what I am going to do with it....I'm going to do what I love to do with roving....make a teddy bear. As you can tell, I loved everything. Thank you so very much for being so generous. I feel quite spoiled. thanks again hugs Marcy

What a wonderful treat! Thank you so much Ann (OhioAnn) for making my day, week and autumn!! I received a lovely package complete with beautiful, handmade apple coasters, a recipe for Mom's School Cookies (much of which is prepped ahead of time so that you can make cookies more simply and more often), a jar of Rosemary Salt and another of Fall Spice Mix. All this and a beautiful note from my swap partner as well. What a tremendous blessing! Many, many thanks Ann!!!

Oh my goodness Jessie, did you ever spoil me with this swap ! Everything is so pretty and special, I feel overwhelmed by your thoughtfulness - I just love everything you sent! I love, love sunflowers, and those napkins and holders are so pretty, can't wait to put them on the table. I collect cookie cutters and don't have any like these - (doing the happy dance :) I have put the little scarecrow into an arrangement that was just calling out for one, only I didn't know that until you sent me one :) The Pumpkin plate and salt and pepper shakers - love them too! The recipe sounds so good and easy - love apple recipes! The little box of acorns - so cool! love the leaves, I just lay them around on tables in the Fall - so pretty and the special Hand made card ia just the cutest! Thanks again for all your thoughtfulness that went into this very special Fall box, just for me - love it all :)! hugs, Ruth

Hi Susan (Springdoeing), Boy I wish I knew how to get pictures from my camera to the computer...your gifts are wonderful. The recipes look great, I'm going to try the carmelized onions right away 'cause we love onions and I have fresh onions and garlic from the garden. The apron is perfect, I raise heritage breeds of chickens and there are chickens all over my new red apron! Will save the relish and peach/orange for special occasions. You must love to can too. I will use the beautiful towels when company comes...so much prettier than my old kitchen standbys!! We have had a few cooler days and a few maple trees have started to show color so I guess fall is really on the way. Thanks for all the thoughtful gifts. Ann
