Add a couple of wooden spoons and a really cute fabric tray/serving container (on the forum) and you've got a true treasure.

If the gift comes from your heart and you enjoy making and giving it, the gift is perfect. Gwyn

I love this idea too!! I know TruPeach had this exact gift "cooked" up for her SS, but I think she changed her mind...that leaves it open for another person to give it as a gift. I know whoever gets it would love it!! When Tru was plotting it I was totally envious of her person!!

YIPPEE!! :D YIPPEE!! :D My
Secret Santa package arrived
today!! I am so excited, I can
hardly stop touching it!! :D It's
amazing, but the return address
is my own. Hmm.....wonder how
that could be? There are eyes
on it, watching me, so I have to
be very good!! Thank you my SS.
:D :D :D :D :D :D

That's so cool Sulabug- your address as the return. I need to borrow that idea. Off to post office when they open at 9. My son saw the "packing material" and he says- what about me- I like this and this and this. I laughed at him- he said he'll be watching the mail for me for my SS gift.

Off to my sewing room- gotta get cracking on my "stuff" for the craft sale next week. Dinner's in the crock pot already so I can keep working without interruption and the family is fed.

I don't know where all our members are from! Of course, we all kinda know on the more active members, but little mouse...we might have folks from EVERYWHERE! Only our great hairy one knows that :wink:

I'm sooo glad to see more boxes arriving....my PO lady told me about the 9/11 rules...she encouraged me NOT to fudge on the return addies...but I may or may not have listened to her. I had no idea that they poked or ripped though! Thats kinda rude, doncha' think?

Well it is on its way to its new home!
Enjoy!

I agree with the customs form! What a Pain! I found a way around it though!!! :lol: :lol:
