Oh, everything looks so tasty!  And the crafts look sweet!!!

I get homesick looking at the package Sylwa got from Lilibet! Hard to believe how spoiled I was in Belgium... I'll need to book a trip back soon, and buy a stash to take back to the Netherlands.

It's 8pm over here and my neighbour just knocked on the door with a package with my name on it  

Will update with pictures shortly

Anticipation!!



My haul!!



So much peanut buttery goodness I don't know where to start. Ritz bits which I haven't had since my last trip to the states in 2007 (and the boyfriend has just spied) some lovely oven gloves, powdered drinks sachets, mango with chilli which I'm really intrigued about and still more candy and chips

Great haul, ebygomm! That looks like a great supply for an evening with a sugar-rush and consequent bouncing-around . I 'd love to see action pictures

A real quick message from Germany, where I am currently using the internet from friends. Ich muss schnell sein!
Sylwa, I am so happy you liked everything. I had so much fun shopping and I an amazed to see how quick it got to you. More Kinder eggs? Personal swap? Just PM me

Oh, and for those who love the gnome, check Cross Stitcher Magazine, I think it was the March issue.

Back to socializing now, and I`ll be back soon!

everything was just awesome! When do you get back home from your travels? My package didnt have a delivery confirmation on it so I dont know where it is right now, hoping it will get to you safely. The postal worker said that they can track it with the number on the customs paper I filled out so at least there is that

YAY ebygomm!  So happy it made it to you!  Hope you enjoy all the peanut buttery goodness!!  I had so much fun finding all of that stuff!

The manshape woke me up a couple hours ago with my packages Was so excited, I didnt even get out of bed before taking a look!


I'm hoping there'll be more of these swaps, I really think I'd do the same and send smaller, multiple packages

Taking a peek:


The extreme goodness that was packed into those boxes! So many cool things! I dont know whats the most exciting!


Trail mixes, Dunkaroos, Tootsie roll lolly, Mamba Chewies, Pop Rocks, Mulled Spices, Gummi Bears, Warheads Cubes (OMG How scrummy?!), Fruit Snacks, Filled Eggs (peanut butter, vanilla cream and caramel), Drink mixes (cant wait to try these, have a pack with 6 flavours! Have seen like a barrel with the powder in ready for mixing in the international shop and could never justify spending so much on one in case we didnt like it), Cherry Mash (have never seen anything like this, and it intrigues me muchly, especially given the recipe ideas on the back of the pack) and fruit snacks

And the crafted love:


Aren't these great? A needle book AND pincushins... I love them! The pin cushions will be put to use in the very near future, I've been needing one (and grumbling about not having one EVERYTIME I sew anything) but never actually getting about to making one myself..

Thank You sooooo much FabricFriend, such a lot of sunshine packed into boxes! It couldn't have arrived at a better time and cheered me up no end (having major home improvement issues right now)

glad it got to you okay. i tried to include a couple of regional items. the cherry mash are made in a little town north of me and were my dads favorite.
the eggs are made in kansas city.
