Lin - That "big" cookie is actually called a Whoopie Pie. Until I moved to Maine I had never heard of or seen one but here they are on the counters everywhere. It's a real Maine thing which is why I sent it. They come in all different flavors, I sent you the basic one.
Now for my treat box! Here's a BIG {{{{HUG}}}} to you! OMB (that's oh my bun, us bunnie owners say that so as not to upset God)! Ladies, I must be the luckiest one in the bunch! It's sure going to be Halloween here which is great because we don't get trick or treaters at our door! Thank you Thank you Thank you! I love it all! I really got a kick out of the "faces". I've never seen them before. Did you know I collect Salt & Pepper shakers? Did you paint them? They are beautiful, as is the little pumpkin. And the smell is to die for! The nicest smelling candles ever! I have one burning now. Thought I'd put one of the bandanas on Oggie as his "costume" and the other in my hair Halloween along with the glow in the dark fangs, too cute! And of course those socks will be worn that day too, probably the entire weekend really. The pumpkin seeds are my hubby's favorite nut. So I'm going to share with him. I thought I'd give him the pez since he collects them too! But I won't until Halloween. I love the "caramel corn". Ladies, it is in the shape of a corn cob! And by the time Thanksgiving is here I will have put on 20 pounds eating all the goodies you sent me! Those pilgrims will go nicely on our table Thanksgiving too! I thank you so much! Having been home other than my part time job for the last 4 months because of my hubbies foot surgery, this was the nicest treat I could ever get! Here's a picture of all the goodies I was sent, Lin really out did herself! What a Sweetie she is!

Thanks to Diana, your fun filled Halloween package arrived and loved everything you put in it. Can't wait to try the pumpkin spice tea in the cute pumpkin mug. What a sweet woven basket with the leaves on the sides and I adored the fall whimsy jar with the pretty ribbon and leaf shaped buttons, etc. The pumpkin shaped "Peeps" are so cheerful. Thanks again for your wonderful Halloween package!

Hi Debbie! I'm so glad you enjoyed your package. I got yours today, thank you so much for all of the wonderful goodies. I can't wait to try the pumpkin bread! And are the cookies homemade too? My husband wants to steal the rice crispie treat and peeps, and the cat candy dispenser is fun. Thanks also for the hotpad, socks and pumpkin. What a box full of treats! Thank you, thank you!

Yesterday when I came home from work I found a wonderful package from Linda waiting for me. Thank you very much for all the wonderful things you have send me, I just LOVE them. The ribbons and the lace are beautiful and I love the trick or treat bag. The pomegranates sachet smells delicious and the magnet is lovely too. The tag is cute and so is the small jack o lantern notebook and the notepaper. Thanks again. I hope that my package also has arrived or will arrive soon.

Hi, Jamie, I got your wonderful package! I arrived home after a very stressful week at work and it was a great stress reliever to see my package from you! Actually my whole family was waiting for me to get home so they could see what I got. I loved everything in the package!! My favorite was the wooden pumpkin it was very unique. Of course the chocolate was great, too. The container it was in was very cute. I hope you have opened yours by now because I had a very busy weekend and did not get to reply until today. Thanks again for everything, Deanna |

Hi, Deanna, So glad you liked it! I loved my box! The pumpkin towel is hanging on my stove, we loved the treats, and I still have all my wonderful decorations up! The card is SO great, and you are so talented! I told my son I was going to wear the 'Happy Halloween' an witch decorations as earrings, just to see him cringe,but we hung them from the bookcase instead!Wish I could post a shot, but still not that high-tech! Hugs, Jamie |
