                | country treasure | Posted - Oct 30 2012 : 5:43:48 PM Hi Ladies,
 Not sure if I should post here or not????
 I wanted to share with you all the cutest Halloween treat bag that came today! Connie aka Killarney, was generous to send such FUN things! Our daughter is visiting & is blown away with such great ideas so a few things are heading back to England! LOL, especially the broom pen! It has paper crafts, yummy treats to nibble on, games, & a sweet postcard that she printed of her much loved cats & Halloween collection!
 
 On top of everything else Connie sent three beautiful hankies which will be treasured!! I have never seen a Japanese hankie before!
 Thanks so much for you kindness! I enjoy Connie taking the time to write a note also & I'm thrilled to have open the mail box today!!!!!!
 Huge Farm Hug
 Thanks again Judy
  
 
   
 country wishes!

 Thank you so much! Your adorable little towels came at a great time, and I love the colors! I hung them on my kitchen stove when we crammed 23 people into our tiny house for my son's first birthay party. WHEW, what a crunch, but I did get three compliments on my new towels! You are such a sweetheart for sending them, not to mention a very devoted daughter for driving to Michigan every single month. Wow.
 
 Thanks so much, and take care!

                | Emily Anna | Posted - Oct 23 2012 : 07:58:27 AM CJ and Missy, you made me crack up. The first time I read that it came wrapped in a banana, I thought, whaaa???? I had all kinds of weird images in my head....one being a browned banana peel and fruit flies flying out of the box when she opened it. lol. So glad it was a bandanna. Thanks for the chuckle! :)

                | erowease | Posted - Oct 23 2012 : 06:53:13 AM I just returned from a quilt retreat and what do I find in my mail?  A wonderful book from Diana, One Simple Act-Discovering the Power of Generosity by Debbie Macomber.  I have already read the first chapter and it is great.  What a wonderful gift, thank you.

 I am sooooo sorry.  I did not realize there ia place for thank yous!  So here I am, begging your forgiveness and sending a thank you to all those who have sent RAOK's to me!  It always makes my day when something shows up in the mail with "Farmgirl Mail"  on the envelope.
 
 Thanks to the sister who recently sent the cute card with the October saying on it.  I don't have it with me right now, but it really made my day!
 
 Thanks again!!!

 Missy,
 You are sooo welcome! You made me laugh however, when you said you liked the wrapping because you said it was "wrapped in a banana".  Just for the record RAOK-ers, it was wrapped in a BANDANA.
 And, I'm sorry for the stress you are going through.
 Hang in there!
 CJ
 
 
 
 
 
 
 OMGoodness how funny.  YES I of course meant BANDANA...although I'm sure you could have used a banana ...lol lol I have FAITH in you.

                | pennyhenny | Posted - Oct 17 2012 : 08:28:01 AM Hi everyone. I'm sending a HUGE THANK YOU to my Secret Sister. I just received my parcel yesterday from my neighbor who had been taking in my mail while I was away taking care of my mom. My neighbor had given me my mail late Monday night when I got home and yesterday she came running over very embarrassed that she forgot to give me 2 packages. Well one of these packages contained the most thoughtful wonderful gifts from my secret sister. I received the best smelling soap I have ever smelled, fall themed cards,notebook, candies and all wrapped in a banana. I love the wrapping!! The soap is Rose-hip and Jasmine so you can imagine how uplifting it smells. After a very rough two weeks with my own health battles and mom this gesture of ROAK made me cry with gratitude. I honestly held the soap against me and cried. It was a release of emotions I needed. CeeJay I can't thank you enough and I promise to pass on the kindness in you honor.
 
 
 
 hugs,
 -missy-

 Thank you!
