Thank you for the darlin box of goodies Daizy! I love Starbursts and Smarties are my sweeties favorite candy (I may share with him). I'll be using the pretty norecards and the coloring postcards soon. The rose sachet is infusing my lingerie drawer right now. The notepad is small enough for my purse and will come in handy. My skin gets dry this time of year so the body creme is appreciated.
Now to stock up on stamps.

Ruth, your package was mailed this morning and should arrive by Friday according to my local post office, hope you like what I created for you, sorry it took me so long to get it in the mail, we were on some serious crunch time for my youngest finishing up his semester (first year of high school and online). It was a tough one. 59 hours of school just last week alone. Crazy! So, watch for little square box coming your way!

Hi Cindy,
Yes, your package arrived yesterday. The stationary is beautiful! Wrapped up in sunflower paper to remind me warmer days are coming :) Delicious local toffee with a pretty tag. Tea to warm me up in this February cold. The card is adorable!
Thank you so much, I love everything.

My bad!! I have been remiss in telling you about the amazing letter box I received from Debbie F. I was waiting to try to take some photos and just haven't got that done yet. But anyway, several days ago I received the most gorgeous vintage wooden box with a glass top that depicts beautiful red flowers There must be an interesting story behind this treasure. As if that in itself wasn't enough, the box was filled with delightful treats including several handmade notecards, pen, stickers and ephemera, a sheet of Forever stamps, "How to Write a Letter" book, and . . . . and . . . . . be still my heart . . . a movie "Message in a Bottle" with my favorite hunk, Kevin Costner. What a wonderful box of goodies. Thank you so much Debbie. You really spoiled me.
Big hugs,
jean

I received a sweet package from Joyce today all the way from Canada!
I love the pouch that will be just perfect to carry my letter writing supplies and I can't wait to try out the wax seals. I also received a very nice letter - can't wait to write back and get our letter writing exchange started.
Thanks Joyce - I hope my package to you arrives soon - it shows it's still in transit.

Hi Ruth, not yet... but our mail is very slow and very inconsistent at best. I'll be sure to let you know when it arrives. I can't wait! :-)

Sherry, when I checked the status of your box it FINALLY showed out for delivery. I am so sorry the ice storm delayed the delivery by so much. Original delivery date was 1/31. :)

Hi Karen, I received your package today. It had to rest before it got here. That package was like Christmas all over again. I was just blown away. You always make you packages so pretty and fun. Thank you so much for all the wonderful goodies. Love the homemade letter supply travel pouch. You are just awesome. I will use the book for addresses, it’s perfect. Love the cards, those pens are great, already tried them out. Love those little paper stamps, tea, all of the card sets. Thank you so much. I have to show everyone what the packages look like when I opened the box and then after I open everything.  .jpg?v 92340067)
Farmgirl Hugs & May all your Wishes come true.

Awesome movie day. In the marvelous box of letter writing surprises that I received from Debbe F. she included a movie -- "Message in a Bottle" . . . oh my stars, Farmgirls, see if you can get ahold of that film before Valentine's Day. Grab your sweetie and open a bottle of lovely wine (or your beverage of choice) and watch that film together. Oh yes, don't forget the box of Kleenex. My girlfriend, Lynne, and I had our girl's movie day today and watched it. Such a lovely, lovely film. Not a real happy ending but a beautiful love story nonetheless. Thanks again Debbie-- that one gets moved right to my favorites list.And oh YES, Kevin Costner is definitely a hunk !!! He can be my Valentine any time.
hugs,
jean

Jean I remembered that was a great movie, but it’s been so long since I saw it, I have forgotten. I’ll have to look it up again. Now, if you like Kevin Costner, then you have to watch “Dragonfly” from 2002, if you haven’t already. That was a wonderful movie!!
