  Re: Spring Swap Discussion Thread/Interest Poll Reply Contact OMG Jackie - what were you thinking ????  I have been involved in swaps before, but I have never, ever had to  . . . . . . . . . . . . . .        Buy a new house to fit all my loot !!!!  Bwhahahahah !!! So lets begin  . . . . Your flower magnet now has the place of honor on my frig, previously held by a magnet of Madame Twisto of the famed Coney Island freaks, whom, sadly, I have met in person. The work sign was hung in my office first thing this morning.  Since 92% of the people I work with are certifiably insane  . . . it’s very apropos. Needless to say, the chocolates – well they were simply devoured. Yum Yum. The note cards were beautiful.  Finally, I have my own Texas blue bonnets !!!! The hand lotion is on my bathroom vanity to remind me to use it every day.  My cuticles are a ragged catastrophic mess !!! Never again will I use a plain old boring Kleenex now that I am in possession of the gorgeous Swanky Hankys !!! And finally  . . . the flower recipe box was just lovely.  I fully intend to write down all of my daughter’s favorite recipes and give it to my future son-in-law so he can cook all of her favorite dinners.  Jackie Girl – you’re the best !!!  Your little (I mean big) box of love was just what I needed yesterday and gave me such pleasure.  Thanks again for all your beautiful and generous gifts!!!!    Deb W.    Oh Hai Twister, iz me ur buddy Jamison.  Fanks sew much 4 da fwuzzy bunknee.  Momma saz I broked da wurld rekordz 4 getting dat squeekie fing out a hiz butt.   HAHA – Fanks Again frum ur buddy Jamison.      Edited to add that I copied this from Word and the spacing got all messed up.

  Re: Spring Swap Discussion Thread/Interest Poll Reply Contact  Mine went out yesterday.  It should be there in 6 business days.  I could have made it get there in 3, but that would have cost me $60...so ummm....ya, 6 days it is!  I hope you enjoy it!  Be sure to look through carefully because some of it is wrapped up in the paper. And to make me feel even more guilty...I GOT MINE!!!!  It came yesterday, but I didn't get it till this morning.  Thank you so much Tina!  I needed a shopping list sooo bad!  I lose mine all the time since I write it on scraps of paper and this way I can keep track of it right there on the fridge where its handy!  And I'm saving the chocolates for tonight when I watch Marley and Me....alone...without Tyler...cause I dont' wanna watch with him.  So obviously I can't share the chocolates either, hehe!  And the stickers are so pretty, I'll have to find some pages to put them on for a spring theme.  First we need pics of my little puddle ducks!  I am going to try my best to get those flowers growing.  And then I'll try really hard not to kill them!  You were right to choose easy ones for me!  My green thumb is kind of a yucky brownish black I think....

  Re: Spring Swap Discussion Thread/Interest Poll Reply Contact Amanda, thank you so much!!!!  Your package arrived today.  So many wonderful goodies in there, I kept pulling things out and finding more!  I love the little flower kits...they are very cool and I can't wait to get them started, so I'm going to sow them tomorrow.  They're going to start their lives on the windowsill above my kitchen sink.  It's the one place the boys won't be able to knock them over!  And, being right above the sink, I have zero excuse not to keep them watered, lol. One question...the incredibly adorable flower & butterfly on the stakes...are those for indoor plants only, or can they be used in the garden, too?  I wasn't sure because they look delicate; I'd hate for them to get messed up by being outdoors.  But, I do have some indoor potted plants I've managed to actually keep alive, so I can put them in those pots. Thanks again, I absolutely love everything! ~Heather~

  Re: Spring Swap Discussion Thread/Interest Poll Reply Contact Candace, I'm so glad you got the package.  You'd think that going from Michigan to Ontario wouldn't take a week.  I mean, it's only across one small lake!  The chocolates were meant as a treat for you and I liked the small box - not too many, but just enough.  I know with 3 kids you probably have little time to indulge yourself, so I hope you did! The marigolds - don't worry.  Plant them, give them a bit of water, they like full sun, and pretty much let them go.  When they start blooming, you "dead-head" them, then they'll continue to bloom for the summer.  In other words, when a flower starts to die, pinch it off.  Another will grow.  They were the first flower I ever had success with - for many years I thought my thumb was brown until I found marigolds! Tina
