I got my package from Bobbie Guyette yesterday. It was a great ending to a bad week at work. She sent me two packages of Raspberry Zingers (the best snack cake
on the globe - Todd may not agree), Post cards from New Hampshire, and 26 eggs. I think the eggs are 2 Goose eggs, 8 Duck eggs and 16 chicken eggs. They are
all under some broody Silkie hens as of noon today. I guess we will what they are in 21 and 28 days. This is going to be one of the most anxious incubation
periods I have dealt with in a long time. Thank you so much Bobbie. Tom

I got my 2nd package from wrangler in the mail today. Came home from work and it was hanging on the mailbox. LOL It contained a rooster salt & pepper
shaker, a rooster yard flag (that is going in my front garden as soon as the weather breaks for a real spring and a beautiful hand crafter necklace &
matching earings done in my most favorite color (green) I wonder how he knew it was my color LOL. Thank you very much Frenchy. I love all the things you sent
me.
I am getting your 2nd package in the mail Monday after I get off work. Just hope you like it.
I'm no spring chicken, but I'm still kickin

I got my package from Dawn, newchickenmomma, on Sat and what a delight!! She knew I loved to garden and filled my wishes. Every gardener knows the shelf life
of garden gloves is short and she set me up with 2 pair! Some large seed packets, I had been wanting some Lilliput Zinnias and there they were!! I was going to
do an herb garden and with her help, I'll have it. Also salad mix that is going in the ground today and some sweet peas. A watering can, a pot sitter, a
rooster windchime for my garden and some Easter candy to give me strength!! The lovely cup with tea is not in the picture because I already had some and the
mint was so yummy!! What a fun time I had, thanks so much Dawn, I loved the rooster card!! You made my day!! Julie

You are so very welcome Julie, I had great fun as well. I forgot to post mine however, I will do so now. I got this lovely package from Julie, Mailmam71, she
sent me all this lovely stuff. Her favorite tea, blackberry and a nice mug to drink it out of, along with some honey to sweeten it. Still have not tried it,
but will one day lol. Some lovely candy from her town, little picture book, a nice assortment of eggs to hatch, a lovely chicken cup/mug? a book of chickens to
which she tagged the ones she has, so I can see what chickens she owns, raisins for my lone chicken, bones for my doggies, seed treats for my birdies ( I
currently have 19) (5 baby conures for sale) and the cute little kitty christmas card
 belated christmas lol. Here is a pic. I don't get here much
lately, so if someone can keep me posted when another swap arises, I love to get in on them. thanks so much north pole for hosting it, and thanks julie for the
lovely gifts you sent to me, will keep you posted on how the eggs are doing.
Dawn ~~~NJ~~~

I got a wonderful box of goodies from animal123 today. It was waiting on the steps when I got home from feeding the tigers and baboons and other critters
today.
Inside was some homemade cherry soap that smells supah awesome, a hummingbird feeder, some gardening gloves, Stargazer lily bulbs, bleeding heart starts, a cute strawberry pot/herb garden kit, a packet of fertilizer to get them all started and a thero/humidity gauge to stick on the window. My cat loves the box it all came in, he could hardly wait for me to get the stuff out so he could jump in. He has been parked in it all afternoon now. Thank you Mr. Animal, it was a nice surprise to find this
today and I can use all the items. Is the soapmaker in your family?
I wish you luck with your box also, I still have one more to ship to you , I am trying to find a way to ship an oddly sized object for you to decorate your new coop with and since the eggs came from a different addy they are coming seperately. |

JENN! (pcjinn) Thank you so much for the box of suprises! It was fun to come home today and see my package on the table. My DD was home, so she brought it in.
She was mad cuz HER package didn't come from eBay! LOL
She sent a package of Amish Friendship bread starter, instructions on how to mix it; a scented oil air freshener for the car; a candle that smells soooo good; Munchy bone doggie treats; 3 packages of flower seeds (cosmos, larkspur and sweet william), AND gladiolus & Freesia flower bulbs!! WOOHOO! I love it all. I can't wait to try the bread! Thanks again Jen. I'll see you in Knox next week.

Nadine, I got my package. Thank You so much. I love everything. I got a purse with a big roo on it (so awesome), a hand made chicken aprin( yellow my fav
color), chicken costers, spoon holder, cast iron hook. It was so awesone. Nadine, thanks for you concern. I am feelin better. Sinus infections suck. I was down

I order will be in. It shouldn't be to long. A BIG THANKS again. You did great.

This swap inspired a little spin off trans continental swap between me/BeckT and CaroleAM .... all is in the mail at last (I couldnt find one box but it turns
out I had enuf from the other ... I had to split two packages of tea (sealed them but they didnt have the pretty preprinted labels so just had to write with a
pen what it was) between you both (loose tea) but I wanted you guys to try them... fab quality)
>>>CAROLE: I got your package today (WOW it got here FAST!!!! I have sent yours in two boxes as it turned out to be cheaper that way but I sent it snail mail so it will take at least 13 days >let me know when it arrives and remember you should receive TWO boxes) ... snail mail can be iffy on the times I sent out all my christmas cards at once and jimnjay gots hers in FEBRUARY 
I am having problems with the focus on my digital camera so must ask a friend to help me get it straightened out so I do not have photos to post the wonderful surprise I got when I opened the box to find an EMU egg!!! (blown out of course)  ohhhh Carole you are a DEAR!!!!  I only found one place here (well not
"here" but in England ) to order one from and I think they may not have them anymore as they have not answered my many email requests for info...
YIPPEEEE...I can at last look forward to carving one!!! (First have to finish up on all this DIY stuff in house and practice on a couple goose eggs first) I
am brimming at the seams with ideas...
THANK YOU!!!! Also for the butterfingers (those didnt last the day lol) and the basket is beautiful and the salt and pepper shaker matched my little one cup combo teapot set beautifully!!! I have already had a wonderful dinner with my sausage gravy mix (mmmmm) Hope to post a pic of all soon...
