When I got home today there was a curious package addressed to me... Huzzah!

Melissandra - Thank you so much! I love soy candles, and it's really neat that you make them. I may have to order some from you once I burn these. ;) Monkey Farts is one of my favorite scents - I love banana. The cinnamon & spice is really lovely, too. My brother stole it from me right out of my hand! That's okay, he'll burn it downstairs so the whole house will smell wonderful! Be sure to thank your daughter for me, too! The drawing is hanging on my wall and the puppy is sitting on my armoire guarding my Wii. Thanks again, they are truly great gifts!

Once again, I've had a blast with the exchange! Can't wait til the winter one! ^_^

I'm so glad you liked them!  I actually wasn't sure about the candles, knowing you didn't like very sweet scents.  I can't believe Monkey Farts is one of your favorites.  That worked out great.  They made it in one piece?  I will be sure to tell her.  She will be pleased  :)  With the bookmark, I took the chance that you read a lot lol.  It may work as decoration, too =)


I really enjoyed this exchange too.  I just have to remember to watch for the winter one.

I wish to throw myself on the mercy of the group and beg for forgiveness.  I am late, very very late.  I dropped the package in the mailbox this morning.  If I had a good excuse, or even a bad onme, I wold use it.  I welcome any and all wet noodle floggings.

North Bay Dreamer, you sound VERY hopeful, you are probably boiling up some noodles right now.  Alas, no beatings, you can use them in your lasagna. ;)  There were a number of us who got them out at the last minute or a little past the 9th.  No big deal, just happy that everything seems to be on its way!  I know this is faire season for a lot of us, so we are trying to squeak in the shopping and shipping.

Thanks so much for The Goblin King, Faye  ;D. I have wanted him for about a year now. Of course you gave it to me at faire and I spent the rest of the day trying to play with it ,but customers kept making me stop  :'(. But I brought him home and he is now happy with the other movie dolls I have.

Some wonderous person has sent me gifts from the mysterious East!!! I LOVE the scarf!!! *or whatever that beautiful piece of silk may be*

The box smelled of exotic sandalwood, from the incense, and the Nightmare Before Christmas stationary RAWKS!!!

Thank you "Campbell", from the bottom of my cold, undead heart!

As I strolled up to my front porch I spied a box, and on the box was a label, and it was for ME ME ME.  A return address of Iowa.  Hmmm.  I am sooo excited. I grab it and run inside just so I can open it.  I find 2 sets of wonderful wine glass charms and a beautiful candle. 

My wife comes home and informs me that I left my keys in the front door !!!!! LOL

I figured an action shot was in order:



Huzzah and gramercy to my secret giver!!

You are so welcome, sir. I'm glad that you like them.... and I'm glad that they arrived safely. Sir Morgan was entrusted to take them to the UPS store to have them packaged up and sent to your doorstep. By the picture and your message, I see that he did well.

OK I've been really busy, hence the late reply but I got mine and it was VERY KEWL!!!

Got a REALLY nice pouch and matching favor hanger with a very kewl pirate favor already on it.
A very kewl puzzle ship that when put together forms a very nice pirate type ship in 3-D
The complete LOR book!  And some very nice incense.

Only issue is, I have no idea who they are from so I can't thank them.  There was a name in quotes on the address label so I assumed it was their R/F name.  So I scoured the members, nope.  :-[

So to whoever my mystery person was - THANK YOU!!!!!

That was ME!

I put my whole name on the send slip.  I wonder why it wasn't there? ::)

I'm glad you liked the gifts.  Since this was my first time I sorta struggled with whether I should send rennie vs non-rennie gifts but I guess I did OK.  ;)

Oh, and I bought a pirate ship for me, too.  So you have to post pics when you put it together!  The display at the store was actually painted like a pirate ship! 8)

Not a problem.  All the slip said that I could read anyway was "Natasha".  But THANKS!  When I find the time to breath and put it together I will certainly put up some pictures!

Peddlin darlin' I'm chatting with Rengeek77 and she knows you have someone.  She's pretty sure its one of our late ones.  She'll check tonight just to be sure its someone she heard from as being late.  If its not someone she knows is late, she'll let you know.
