Oooh!  Everything is so pretty.  I need a sign that reminds me not to stop for food.  It's my kryptonite!

I should be looking for my camera for when my goodies come in...

Grenouille78 sent me the most awesome package!  She also did some serious stalking! 

She made beautiful, comfy slippers, two dish cloths (so pretty), and a snake draft dodger.  Aren't they adorable!?! Actually she made A LOT of draft dodgers, but I only photographed one.  She also made these really, really cool olive oil lamps.  I can't wait to use them.  I went grocery shopping today and completely forgot to buy olive oil.     She also made adorable toys for my boys.  A little bat, dinosaur finger puppet,and jingle ball.  She also sent photocopied frugal tips from a magazine. 





Grenouille78's little girl is so kind hearted.  She decided to send a much loved book about a chick hatching from an egg for my boys.  One problem...it's in french!     Grenouille78 didn't want to deceive her daughter or discourage her loving gesture, so she sent it.  I'm sending it back, as requested, with a thank you note.  Isn't she a wonderful little girl?  Grenouille78 must be a wonderful mommy.

Thank you, grenouille78, for all the lovely items.  I adore everything!

p.s. grenouille78, if you have better pictures, please feel free to post them.  I only have a cell phone camera and it stinks.

First an awesome card

Then

a bunch of Chinese Tea with reusable tea bags, (hmmmm?? I just realized the pic of the tea bags is missing? I must have forgot to take them)
3 ADORABLE zip pouches, my kids have each taken one - Ty's is his new puzzle bag ( he is obsessed with puzzles) and Kate uses her's for snacks (she is a snack queen!) Mine is housing my buisness cards! Thankyou!



2 very adorable pillow covers. They match my decor perfectly! The picture do not do justice. I have already had so many compliments on them!


Some adorable washcloths that are now in my 1/2 bath and she also sent some extra's I can use to make some more! My sister think's I am making her some now- haha! I told her ya sure add your name to the waiting list- I am the only person in my family who sew's.

Thankyou so, so much!
