A few days ago I received a lovely card and letter from my “not so secret sister”. I enjoyed savoring a handwritten letter telling me what is going on in her life and the benefit of knowing who your secret sister is the opportunity to write back.
Today I received a wonderful package, full of fall goodies. A beeswax candle that smells amazing. Maple candy, stickers, a beautifully embroidered tea towel and a crocheted dish cloth and a sweet card letting me know she is thinking of me. Thank You so much dear friend. I love it all.

Everyone is receiving such lovely goodies. What fun!
Thank you to my secret sister for this lovely sign. Yes, I love sunflowers and red trucks. I have the perfect place where I will be hanging it.
When the UPS guy dropped off the Amazon package, My friend was over for lunch and I told her "I can't remember what I ordered from Amazon" ... and yes, living in a small town, I order a lot! All these pre-order possibilities are running through my mind ... I'm thinking, I haven't placed an order in a while. I was going nuts .... all in the space of seconds ... even when I opened the package I couldn't figure it out until I finally clicked and I read the note ROFLOL .... OMG, thanks for the laugh!

I got a sweet package from my secret sister again. She sent me a cross stitch kit, some pretty fabric, and Aunt Martha's embroidery pattern of snowmen! I love snowmen and the fabric is going to be my new fall apron. The cross stitch will be beautiful in our new home here. She sent me a sweet note too. Thank you Secret sister. I love it all. I am very intrigued by who my secret sister could be. She knows me so well.

Thank You not so secret sister for the sweet card and note. Yes, fall is beautiful on the farm and very hectic. This is the fall decor I set up by my front door this year. I decorate for every holiday out there.
Hope you have a great day.

Hi Marlene, Your secret sister would like to know if you have any hobbies, do you collect anything, what is your favorite holiday and favorite color?

I have gotten a package from my secret sister.
I love everything. The stickers are really nice. I like to keep all my Halloween pictures together. My husband took the peppermint bark tea. The note pad is delightful. I will have to find something nice to do with the fabric as well as the yarn.
I really like the box also.

Thank you so much Secret Sister for my Fall package full of goodies. I needed new notepads and I wanted the 2022 Farmers Almanac, how did you know? Salt and pepper shakers are so cute. Love the dishcloths that will be used for doilies, oh and the fall spatula and pumpkin cookie cutter and Halloween candle. I love it all. So happy you had pretty weather for your daughters wedding last weekend, Congratulations. Thank you again and have a wonderful weekend.
