Hi Christine:
Received your swap package today!  Thank you so much. The salt and pepper shakers are so clever! Cute idea...I can picture a red and white checkered tablecloth, wildflowers and those shakers as a centerpiece. Also, the homemade bookmark is top notch creative! How did your friend ever come up with that idea? The bookmark is very special and I do read every night so it is going into my book tonight. And the postcards are a great idea...they give insight into where you live. Thank you again for your thoughtfulness. Farmgirl Heather |

Ginny, I'm so glad you liked the playing cards. I just LOVE candles and I'm looking forward to burning the one you sent. It's a great color too for my freshly painted master bath.
This has been a fun swap. Kudos to Sue for organizing it.

Thank you so much for the wonderful package I received today. Ladies, I had a great-looking soup mix, candy, and pretzel/dried fruit mix. I can't wait to try them all. Great choices, Lesley!

Hi Rosemarie,
I'm sorry I'm so late in posting, but I was out of town and came home to find your package, which was a lovely surprise! Thank you so much for the cookie mix and the cute little cookie cutter that came with it and the YUMMY coconut patties I love coconut so it was a great choice! Have the picture on my desk. I've always wanted to go to Disney World, but haven't made it thus far. I grew up in California by Disney Land so we always went in the summer time. It was our BIG family thing in the summer.
I'm putting your package in the mail today. I was still trying to find a couple of things before I went out of town, but didn't have time. Mission is complete and your surprises will be coming your way shortly

Pam,
Your package is in the mail again today, I had mailed it around the first of last week and my postman returned it to me today because I put tape over the postage and it didn't allow their stamp to stay on. It would just wipe off when it touched anything. I am glad I know my postman well, he said it could have set there for a long time before it was sent back if he hadn't brought it to me. So I took it out of the box and put it in a new one and he is just gonna put the postage on it there so I don't have to go stand in line again - he is sooo nice. Hope you like your suprises. This has been fun! I can't wait to get yours as I just love the southwest and all it is, ... I can breathe out there!!!
Anyway ... Enjoy and sorry it is a little late!

Hi Sue,
I just had breakfast and used the horseradish mustard. They have made a new fan of their mustard. I love plain yellow mustard but man o man that is delicious and I will probably have to go on their website to get more...Thanks so much...Yum!

| Darlene - I could always send you some more if it would be cheaper; just let me know. That mustard along with our Salens hot dogs are the most requested items that people that have moved out of town want you to bring to them when you visit! Wish I could of sent the hot dogs, they are really good! |

Hi Pam,
I love my packaage! I love the southwest and am not used to being so far away that it is hard to visit once in a while, so I really appreciate what you sent even more.
I recieved a beautiful notecard that was ever so sweet. Also sent some of the neatest notecards with pictures of the southwest - they are so pretty I am gonna have a hard time sending them, I might frame some of them as they would match some of my decor perfect. I also got some Indian frybread with Desert Blossum Honey, I love frybread and miss the tacos we used to make out of them - it was a friday nite regular meal deal, we watched scary movies and ate tacos, sometimes we would make sopapillas with the dough and eat them with honey - nothing like eating 'em right after they are made and still warm. I lived with my Aunt on the White Earth Reservation when I was younger and that was a big part of my memories from then. Thanx again.
Loved my swap!!!

For Rosemarie, I was just wondering if you got my package and it made it safe and sound?

Hi Cynthia,
I received your great package the sauces are just amazing! The Chocolate with lavender and Blueberry's must be saved for a special day that looks just so special. I also loved the magnet. The post card reminds me of my home which was in NJ. I will keep it on my desk when the heat kicks in here in Florida!!! I am so very sorry it took so long to respond I have not been able to get on to the computer for a week I'm not sure if it was the storms or just time for a new computer. I am so happy you enjoyed all your goodies. I am not able to post pictures for all to see how nice all my goodies were. Thank you so very much. What a great swap.
We are so blessed.
Hugs,
Roe

Hello Pam,
I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciated the card you sent to me. Beside being so thoughtful, it was just beautiful and I think I am going to repurpose the stitched portion onto a crazy quilt I am trying to make (hope you don't mind). It really was so nice of you. I have to ask - did you make it?
Thank you again for your thoughtfulness,
Lainey Lou #3848
