Thanks for the good wishes, ladies, and for all the fine candy! I have opened all the candy packages and I'm composing a full list of thank-yous so it will be a day or two. Also, I have a pic or two to share.
Yes, it was a long wait but I'm good with delayed gratification! Thanks for making my day special!

Happy Birthday!! Delayed Gratification! Tee-Hee-Hee! Yes, you must be really good at this. Patience is a virtue and you must be a most virtuous woman to wait so long for your surprises. I look forward to your photos! I always gather good ideas to use with my little sweet treats! Now, you ask where are my photos? Well in my camera where else? I need to get them to my computer so I can post them here for the world to see.

Good morning. Here are 3 photos of my birthday haul!

This is the basket where I kept packing all the envelopes as they came in.

Here's everything laid out on the kitchen table. Not all the items show up but trust me, they are all wonderful!

Then finally, everything repacked and on the way to my sewing room.
Thank you to all 26 of you who sent all the wonderful gifts including the fabulous candy squares, cards (including many wonderful homemade and personalized ones!), extra fabric squares and fat quarters (Gannyrosie, Jannie, and Trish B), "real" candy (Oneteapot), a lovely pincushion (Benndm) and a birthday mug rug (SewbizGirl) that has been a constant under my coffee mug since yesterday. Thank you to everyone for all the special touches and they way you safely packed up the candy squares. Everything made it safe and sound despite a bit of mangling on a couple of envelopes.
It was tough to hold on for a year but you all made it worthwhile!

oh my an icy Texas day....says Barb from Michigan where it is colder then Alaska by 30 degrees! For over a week now!!!! There are signs on the highway that says only 25 days till spring!

LoL Barb. My daughter in ND says the same thing. And I hear YA! I grew up in Idaho. Nobody here knows what to do in icy weather, I think. They announce everything closed down practically the day before storms hit. Sometimes they really are bad Texas-wise. If it were just snow but here everything gets iced. I told my sister sunday we were "hunkering down" for the storm and she thought it was the funniest thing ever.

Here, Here for winter in Michigan. I am just down the road a piece from Barb, OK and hour and a half close to our big friend, Lake Michigan. Yup! in-deedy-do it is C-C-C-C-Cold and we have plenty of snow that is more piles of crystals of ice than snow. But, would I move away from all of this winter? No, love the four seasons, just getting tired of -5 and -10 degree days. Chin up you shivering southerners, it will hit 70 degrees sooner for you than for us hardy northern folk. When it is too cold to go out, quilt!
