A very big thankyou

To a very good friend. Just as we got through the door after the long post-honeymoon drive home, we were greeted by a pile of post resembling Kilimanjaro, and amongst it was a little card left by our postman telling us that we had a parcel waiting for us to collect.

In it was an amazing amount of stuff, crammed into the cutest little box, which had come all the way from America! Inside wrapped amongst blue and gold tissue paper, were goodies galore, a hand-knitted and felted pot-holder, Lionbrand Cascade 220 wool (onto which were threaded goodies!), chocolate (apologies for the lack of chocolate in the photo, that single Hershey's packet was all that was left!), gorgeous almond-scented soap, a hand-made card (with a quote that I *love*, and it's such a pretty card!), incense (smells divine), gorgeous magnet (I think of you everytime I open the fridge!), a hand-made book scarf (we both think this is fantastic!) and a wonderful letter. It was the best thing we could have received after the bad news we came home to with the hubby's car.

So, Robyn, thankyou so much, you are an absolute gem! I am already compiling my sneaky list - so watch out! hehe!
