An Extra Christmas Day Pressie From 'Pink Stitches'

Now back on this post I mentioned that I had one pressie from Cara at Pink Stitches I was not allowed to open until Christmas Day for The Coloradoladys Secret Santa Soiree   Well my dear hubby made it the last pressie I was allowed to open and when I did was over joyed.  My first Tilda book.  I have admired them but never bought, but now have one I love.

Thank you Cara.

SSS

I have recently participated in The Colorandolady's Secret Santa Soriee.  In the last week I have received my goodie parcel from all the way from the United Kingdom.  I was lucky enough to have received from Cara over at Pink Stitches and I got some lovely gifts.  All have been opened apart from one that is not allowed to be opened until Christmas Day.

I love them all very much.  There was chocolate in the parcel to, and on the day it arrived, it was the hottest day here and the chocolate was like water when I got the parcel.  So I put the packets in the fridge and once they were hard again, I munched them all up...yum yum!

Also my parcel reached its destination all the way in France.  I was lucky enough to send to Pippa from Pippa's Patch.  Now I forgot to take a picture before I sent it along so have snagged the photo from Pippa's blog.

I would like to thank Suzanne from The Coloradolady for again hosting this swap this year.
