I know it is good, I eat way too much of it. I have to confess I have been having a difficult month and am only just getting my package together to send out. It is midnight here and I will be posting it tomorrow, it can take up to 2 weeks so I usually try to get it out earlier so I am so sorry Sp pal you will be sitting on the bench a while this month. I am going to make up by putting some EXTRA chocolate in, Twirls.
Skaduzy, these are the same as flakes only (if you can believe it) they are then coated in chocolate. Yummy yummy, I reckon they will travel better than flakes.
If I have a squashed flake I usually sprinkle it over ice cream. Actually here in England we have an ice cream called a "99" which is a cone with vanilla ice cream and a flake stuck in it. I have no idea why it is called a "99", Tussy might be able to help with that one.
Try not to eat all your flakes at once Skaduzy..

I also got 3 other nice pieces of fabric, a handy little plastic drawstring bag, chopsticks, a pretty little notepad, 3 patterns, an adorable finger pincushion, a little tablerunner that is even handquilted, a mug rug, a chocolate scented candle that already has my sewing room smelling wonderful. She even remembered my furbaby with a Halloween toy. And...my very own chicken. She didn't come with a name. She is white with black polka dots. Any suggestions? I will send a picture this weekend when one of my computer savy children are home.

Back from Dr for awhile now and am taking it easy as they said to do! Think i will take a short nap see you all in alittle while! The epidural was nothing like i thought it was going to be. Very lettle pain, the only thing that hurt was when he gave me a shot to numb it and then some pressure and it was all over! All worked up over nothing silly me!

My SP package was delivered today. It looks like she won't receive it until her next mail pick up though! Not unless you go back and repick up todays mail!!
The good news is my package arrived today! It made my dreary day happy! Thank you ssnares for my four fabrics in blues, greens and purple, my nice organizer and my salveges for my collection so I can make a purse soon! Ssnares took a pot holder and sewed ziplock bags to the inside for a wonderful way of carrying supplies. I'll try and post a pic later when I'm up and around. Still having some trouble with feeling better after having a kidney stone removed Wed night. But it sure cheered me up today to receive my package! Thanks so much! :D :thumbup: :thumbup:
