                      | Kelly, I put a special antiquish-looking hook up close to my kitchen sink so I can display the cloths, but still use them!  I promise to use them!!!  :)  Lin

                      | Hi Staci,  I received your sweet note and flower seeds in the mail today!  Thanks so much for the wonderful surprise - will plant the seeds tomorrow.  One of my most favorite flowers!  They bring so much "sunshine" to me.  Love to cut them and bring them in the house.  Even one lonely flower in a tiny vase is lovely! Thanks again,
 Hugs,  Ruth

                      | Ruth, You are so welcome.  I love them, too. Can't seem to resist grabbing a pack of them when I buy seeds. Still a bit early to plant here yet, but I'm getting anxious. We've put a few things out but I haven't started any seeds yet. Soon, soon!  Got your recent emails and hope to sit still long enough tomorrow to reply. Til then...
 
 Blessings,  staci FG# 973

                      | Received a package from Lilly.  Thank you Lilly!  A beautiful paperweight that I can't stop admiring.  Book mark, I'm a reader and flower sticker which I like to use on envelopes when mailing cards and a cute note pad.  She writes nice letters and notes and I enjoy hearing from her. This is fun.  Lilly and her husband are taking a cross country trip and she will be sending me emails with updates and pictures.  I'm looking forward to following her adventures.  I am so lucky! Linda

                      | I received a cute little package from MBurns.  It had a packet of darling note cards and a little chicken pin.  I can't have chickens where I live yet...so the pin will be my hen for now.  Thanks Marlene!

                      | I received a lovely package from Candida yesterday!  I love the pepper keeper and can't wait to try it out.  My husband loves to roast peppers for hummus, so this will come in handy.  And the seeds, and gloves - all lovely!  Thanks so much! 
 Your package is on its way.  I can't wait for you to receive it!

                      | I received the most wonderful package from June ( jsparks60 ) today!  I love the purse made from cleo's wool!  Tell her thank you for me!  My maine coon will not stop sniffing it!  I might have to wrestle him back for it!  And I am an avid bird watcher so the hummingbird feeder is perfect !!  They are just starting to come around so it came at the best time!  The fossil rock will have a special place in my lighted curio case along with my other crystals.  Thank you so much June!!!

I have your things I got for you, just not boxed up and mailed yet, I've been working on the rescue dolly swap and other swaps. I haven't forgotten you, friend. E-mail me if you can. I took myself off facebook. |

                      | Hi Staci,  I received your wonderful package today!  How "Me"!  LOVED the vintage hankies - all of them, and the special Mother one, just for Mother's Day.  The quilt  note cards are adorable.  You must know that I love quilts and anything related.  Plus, I love to see clothes on the clothesline! The quilts on the note cards are hanging on a line and blowing in the breeze!  How cool is that! You even decorated the outside of the envelope.  You blessed me real good!
  Thanks and a big hug,
 Ruth
