Ahaha! So, my swapee was D4L. Guess who my swapper is? D4L!
Talk about hitting the nail on the head! I get this box with a name that’s familiar on it (because she was my swapee). On the outside, on either side, is a dragon. A positive image on one side.
And a negative image on the other.
I open it, and immediately, I smell CHOCOLATE!! Then, I look inside to discover that it looks like an Easter basket.
😀
I read the note to discover, before I’ve looted the box, that the contents are, in fact, chocolate (Ghirardelli with hazelnut *munchmunchmunches before her boyfriend comes over*), a book called “Sarah’s Key” (which looks perfect for my book club when my turn arrives), and some Aveeno shower products (which is perfect because I LOVE Aveeno and I’m just about out of my current shower gel). All carefully wrapped in very Eastery cellophane. My only complaint is that I had to unwrap the cellophane before I could get to my chocolate!!!
Thank you, D4L!!
March 4, 2010 at 2:22 am #800442I get paid tomorrow and will be running to the Post office as soon as I can to get mine out
March 4, 2010 at 3:09 am #800443Ghostndragon, you’re welcome! I’m glad you liked it… ^_^ Let me know how you liked the book after you read it, it’s an emotional roller coaster at times!
March 4, 2010 at 3:13 am #800444I have never heard of the book but sounds like the makings of a GREAT movie
March 4, 2010 at 3:16 am #800445I got my box today. I was having a crappy day and left work early and this just cheered me up so much
Thank you CRIMSON!
I mentioned I think that my favorite movie was Moulin Rouge, and she sent me a book ^^ it’s so cool! I wish I could read it, it’s all in french. Can you read french Crimson?
I got these awesome beads, I’m going to make a bracelet from them I think!
These are the coolest candles. ROSES. How do they do that? so cool.
mmmmm I Looooooooooooooooooooooooove the hazelnut body butter. I smell like yummy coffee! That’s definately going to get all used up. And the shower gel smells like sugary fruit, I can’t think of exactly what fruit though, I keep sticking my nose in it trying to figure it out. It smells good enough to eat….must not eat soap….
OH MY GOD I lit that oil burner and it almost immediately filled my room. I didn’t realize it was so quick and powerful! I used the lavander, mmmmmmm.
My nephew thanks you too, he’s going to love that dragon puzzle. I doubt I’m going to get to keep it once he sees it. 😀
Thank you so much Crimson, I LOVE all my goodies!
*HUGS*
March 4, 2010 at 6:59 am #800446What wonderful gifts!
March 4, 2010 at 4:04 pm #800447YAY! I’m so glad it got to you! I had so much fun getting everything together! I just kept finding stuff and going ‘Oooo, she’ll like this!’ LOL!
I can read a little bit of french but not enough to make it through the book, LOL! I have them mostly for the photos. Funny story on how I ended up with two; I snagged one YEARS ago when they first came out (I have alot of rare MR stuff). Somehow it got misplaced when I moved into my house 5 years ago & when I went looking for it I couldn’t find it! So I hunted down another one. Sure enough; the day after I found & bought the new one I found the old one. :p When I saw your fave movie was MR I knew that one of them had to go to you. 🙂
The Snow Fairy soap is vanilla-y fruity-y glitter-y goodness. 😉
I love the oils that I sent you; I think I need to go get a few bottles of the scents before they are retired! I’m not usually a floral citrus person but since I was looking for you I smelled stuff I wouldn’t usually. And liked it! 🙂
*YAY* Happy dance. 🙂
P.S. Did I mention that Swedish Fish are my favorite candy? In the world? I’ve literally been bribed with them in the past. Seriously. Had to share the SF love!
March 4, 2010 at 10:03 pm #800448I have been sent!!
I dropped the box off at the post office this morning and paid extra for 1-2 day priority delivery so by Saturday or Monday my package should be delivered
I hope my Swappee likes the itemsMarch 5, 2010 at 4:56 am #800449🙄 🙄
Do not ask hubby’s to do things for you….because they don’t do it. I have yummies for my swapee that were supposed to get to them before the big package, but now it will be the opposite. I am so sorry! I was out of town, so this is why this happened! 🙁 They will get both items though!!March 5, 2010 at 7:26 am #800450Crimson Vision wrote:P.S.

ha ha! My brother loves them, so he wound up snagging them from me as soon as he saw them.
Yeah, you always find what you’re looking for right after you spend money replacing it 😀 Silly how that works.
Thanks so much!
March 5, 2010 at 5:29 pm #800451Huge Thank You to Darjeb!! Got a lovely package with two of my favorite products from the Body Shop and a cd that I’ve been wanting for a while now. Thanks hun!! And I love the pic of Tristan (is that him, it looks like him) on your address label:
Love the White Musk scent. 😀
March 5, 2010 at 10:24 pm #800452I like all of the gifts so far!! So thoughtful! 🙂
March 5, 2010 at 10:46 pm #800453I agree!!
Still nothing at my doorstep either
I’m chomping at the bit to tell my swapee who they are but I’m being good
the post office said it should be delivered Saturday or Monday so the wait is not too much longer I guess especially if it’s tomorrow instead of MondayMarch 6, 2010 at 1:41 am #800454Thank you to Jasmine!
She got me a poad tile (the poad addiction grows…..), a Windstone Ed. pin, a kimmidoll (the doll with the red hair), a sweet vampire thing (if you squeeze it the eyes bug out! AWESOME!!!!!), and some sugar free goodies (which are presently being nommed on). It came after a not so great day at work (I found out I have to completely learn someone’s job by next Wednesday, and she doesn’t have the easiest job!!!)
I loved it all, and now am just waiting patiently for everyone else’s goodies to arrive!
March 6, 2010 at 3:11 am #800455Windstone Editions pins?? I’m not sure I know about those??
