I am waiting for a posted list. If anyone would post the list, we can contact our own partner. If momof2jrt does not post a list by today, I will partner up each person who is still interested. There is still time to bake and get cookies out. I will check i nthis afternoon.

If the people on the list are not matched up yet, I need to bow out of this swap. Please let me know if this is acceptable. Val |

Becky, Your box will be going out tomorrow. I hope you like what I am sending you. My oven never did get fixed, they have to order a new part. The part is here, but.....they won't send a repairman until February 19!!! I have been without my oven for over a month now....I'm NOT happy about that!!!! But I hope you will like your Valentine goody box!!! G

Mine to Bridge went out priority Monday also, as usual I was late in mailing. Ironic that we were matched for the swap, since she just bought a grain mill for her new KA mixer from me. Just never know what might be hiding in my cupboards or storage just waiting for the right new home! Ronna |

Thank you so much Becky!! The cookies are so so yummy. They made it mostly whole!! My mom and I had just sat down for some tea and a movie when the mailman came with this box full of the most beautiful and yummiest cookies you can imagine!! Mom loved them, she said one of the frostings tasted lemony and was just so good with her tea!!
Thank you sosososososo much. Delicious!! I haven't posted it yet, but I snapped a photo of the beautiful cookies before we dug in!! I'll post it later, still taking care of the kiddies right now.
Thank you sooooooo much Becky!!
Oh, and if yours doesn't fit, I'll be glad to stitch up one that will!! Sorry about my oven still being broken! Sears promised it would be fixed last week!!

I got a cute pink and purple valentine container full of individually valentine wrapped heart shaped cut out cookies with red jelly centers and drizzled chocolate on top. Yummy. The little cutout hearts are also in the container and some endangered species chocolate treats. So sweet and the container will be reused too. Thanks Bridge!! What fun Ronna |

I came home Thursday after another fun day at work and asked did we get any mail (the plowtruck knocked our mailbox and a few of the neighbors down from our big snowstorm - really it was snow ice and good old sleet) and my dad said yea the mailman dropped a box off - so running off to kitchen I found my surprises - A Apron and some candy and other munchies (I drank the pink chocolate today) -
Thank you Thank You for Aunt George for the valentine surprise (and dont worry one day that oven willbe repaired!!

Becky, I'm so glad you got the package and it arrived on a horrible day, to hopefully cheer you up!! I do hope the apron fits and that you like it. I can always alter it a bit for you if it doesn't fit. And guess what....the oven repairman came today! So hubby requested his favorite right away...Scotch Shortbread, and with a family name of Campbell no less. I've never had the pink hot cocoa. I hope it was good!
Take care and thanks for being such a great swap partner. Did you get your mailbox repaired yet?

Hello, enchantedwoodsgirl. I received my delightful package from you yesterday. What a lovely surprise, so many layers to unfold and enjoy.
I love the tin. I have a red one from years back. I love to use them for storage with buttons or beads. My red one holds a loose tea in it. I thin kI will store buttons in this one.
Then, to find a pretty yellow napkin. We only use cloth napkins at my home. I love it!!! Thank you so much. Such a pretty, cheerful yellow flowered print to really warm up this mid-winter snowed in time.
Then, to find seeds for flowers for summer. THANK YOU!! I was just thinking that as soon as I can get into town, I want to cruise the seed aisle at KMart and check for some for next year. We can't start seeds inside until April 1, but I am so looking forward to growing some sweet williams that you sent.
And, at the very last, a package of delicious orange chocolate fudge. The smell permeated the package, and I had a hard time not ripping everything to get to it first. :-) There is still a few pieces left in the refrigerator for today. The family loved it, sweet with that delicate orange flavor. We happen to love oranges and clematines, so it was PERFECT! Thank you so much.
I opened up the card last and hung my valentine on my swag over the back sliding doors. Thank you so much. You really made my day. Even though we had a lovely snowed in Valentine's Day and days off since for short mid-winter break, my children got sick. So, it has not been what I expected. The package really cheered me and warmed my heart. Thank you, Kathy.

Aunt George - we bungee fixed our mailbox. My dad feeling on it is that it is dented and the door still open and closes so we bungee to a top of a metal pole stuck in concrete. he refuses any donation of a new mailbox - just resets the concrete each spring
(I guess that happens when u live on a buzy road)

the apron fits and the pink chocolate was great!!(and the candy was to!!)

Clare makes the most decadent biscotti - hehehe, I have some hidden for later......and dipped in dark chocolate no doubt - I will feel less guilty eating them since dark chocolate is better for our health!
