Heard from Jeanette and unfortunately the Canadian Postal System is on strike. So until it is over she cannot post a package to the U.S. nor can I get a package to her until the strike is over. We will hope the strike is over quickly. Thank you Candy for a fun swap.

Debbie, Thanks for the heads up. That postal strike has been going on for months and affected another friend of mine recently on the swaps. Another of our sisters suggested to me that international deliveries may be helpful to utilize Amazon or Etsy as an easy way to deliver. I know my last mailing to Canada cost over $50. I hope we can find ideas to best handle international swaps. Candy

Candy, I agree. Amazon is a great option....until the border is involved. Sorry for the complications, all!

Debbie, Thank-you for all of your trouble and using Amazon to help me feel included in this swap as Canada Post does funky things! Your package arrived today and my heart is FILLED to the brim! Such beautiful hand lotion and the towels match my kitchen pantry cupboard!! I can't wait to plant the seeds. You put a smile on my face and love in my heart. Thank-you, again :0)

Hi Jeanette, so happy that part of your package arrived and it fills you with joy. We will not let issues with the postal system keep us Farmgirls from having fun. We will prevail. A couple more packages are heading your way, so keep an eye out.

.jpg?v 31043344) Kelly, I received my swap this week. Thank you for the dish towel, lemon welcome sign & the tea. Your card was nice as well. I am thinking about using the welcome sign either in my kitchen or on my patio. This was a great swap! Thanks, Debbie, for hosting it.

. Wow, Wanda Sue you sure know how to pack a little box with so many goodies. I love the lemon fabric and and think I might make a pillow, we will see. The lemonade mix and lemon tea yummy, oh and let’s not forget the yummy lemon blueberry crunch white chocolate bar. Oh you know how I love white chocolate. Cute straws, spice lemon mug mat, cannot wait to use it in the morning for my coffee. The yummy Lemonade Magic Pie, can not wait to try it. Nice prayer card and sweet note. Thank you so much Wanda Sue for everything, I am always so happy to have you for my swap partner. Thank you again for everything. Candy thank you so much for such a fun swap.

Hi Wanda Sue, no the candy bar did not melt. It must have zipped right through all the states to get to me. And your box when it arrived was delivered to my covered porch not in the mailbox. I had too many packages to fit in the mailbox.
