TODAY I received my 2nd of three sp packages havplenty (Mary)
Oh my so many awesome things was packed into that
box.
Get ready for the "picture" show.
HAHAHA
Here goes:
photo #1
Orange Sapphire hand lotion (love this scent another of my faves)
Heart shaped soap for my bathroom (daughter nabbed it and put it in there already)
Grape scented bath gel smells yummy
[ATTACH=CONFIG]312558[/ATTACH]
photo #2
TWO great postcards, one with red and yellow (my favorite) roses
made to look like a postage stamp, the other of the St. Louis Arch and skyline.
And of course a "cat" massager (love these kinds of things)
[ATTACH=CONFIG]312560[/ATTACH]
photo #3
Recipe book (looks to have some yummy recipe in it)
Assorted teas and Instant ginger honey crystals (something new to try)
Chopsticks (will have to hide from my hubs he uses these for his french press yuck)
[ATTACH=CONFIG]312561[/ATTACH]
photo #4
2 books (loved these books and plan to read them again some time)
photo album
[ATTACH=CONFIG]312562[/ATTACH]
photo #5
Awesome orange fabrics to add to my stash of "oranges" (which is slowly growing)
and some great self threading needles.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]312563[/ATTACH]
photo #6
Last but not least the homemade items the most adorable
Ms. Owl pincushion, it has been a struggle to keep this for
myself, as Mr "dude" (aka Gizmo) thought he was getting
another new toy between him and my daughter they were
both making plans to run off with my owl until I threatened
bodily harm to them both. Trina picked up Giz and carried him
off while telling him it was to save their lives.
Then there is the awesome mug rug. I have been "planning" for
ages to make myself one to put on my night stand but alas I
just kept putting it off. Now I can continue to put it off since
there is now one to go there.

Krystyna,
Of course you can add that to my list of "loves"
In fact I love ANY color.
EXCEPT for brown and olive/drab green
Orange just happens to be the one color that my
stash has the LEAST amount of. While blue there is
so much of that it has taken 3 bins to hold most of it.
But purple and yellow are still (and always will be) my
top two colors.

I haven't heard anything from my SP either, if she got it or not. She doesn't look at the board for some reason. I'll send her one if she doesn't say something soonly 
I hope to see my package soon too! Maybe it is flying its way here now.

I do NOT like that because Feeney is sensitive to some treats and throws up! I said as much. Did that stop her? Nope. And she kept chasing Daisy around. My little girl is a rescue and was very fearful when we got her. Chasing her around does not help matters. THEN she had the audacity to tell me how to train her! Excuse me??? How can I train YOU to leave her alone!
While I'm venting ... we were working out per piece prices and she said, well, what do you charge for them? Ahem. None of your beeswax lady. I just said, very calmly, "That's irrelevant." She kept digging to find out where I bought my lace. Online? Here? There? I kept dodging and finally said, "It took me ten years to develop my sources. That is not something I share." Did she get the point? NO. She asked again. I just ignored her.
OK. Done with my rant-o-rama.

Wow, HavPlenty has been BUSY!! She has been shelling out the nummies, the mug rugs and the cutest pincushions. I got my package today a long with everyone else. It seems the post office was busy across the states.
Thank you so much Mary, you made my day with the wonderful items.
I got a lovely note card and inside was a gift cert for a restaurant -- she had promised me chocolate for my birthday in Jan. Hehe. I also got mounds of Flannel Fabric, I'm about to get busy on a cozy lap quilt soon and this will help A LOT.
I got another great pincushion which she said is her first try on doing a dress form and I think it rocks. I got candies and a heart mug rug, a 'sunny' note pad, a highlighter pen with little stickies, some lip balm which I can never have enough of as dry as it is here in the NW. (You wouldn't think with all the rain it would be dry). I also got some inspiration inserts from Hobby Lobby and a pattern for plastic bag holders. I love it all!
PM's were sent out btw. In case they aren't going through.
Anyways, here are the pictures!! GLEE!!

Besides, just slap that woman like a redhaired step child and tell her to get back to work
