Well, my first package from my Secret Pal arrived in the mail yesterday. At 6:15 this morning, I went outside and took photos (I had an early breakfast meeting, so it was then or not until next week!)
You know, it always amazes me that I seem to get packages from Secret Pals on the days that I'm really having a hard time. Secret Pals really have a tendency to brighten up the day, don't they!
So, on to the goods: One skein of Artful Yarns' Broadway. (Can I just say that sparkles and yarn is always a good idea - I think this one will become a fun and funky scarf) and one of my personal favorite yarn right now, Blue Sky Cotton - I love how soft it is. I also got a little package of Burt's Bees lotions and some stitch markers (close-up below.) Then finally, my pal is from Alaska, so I got a "Bear Hugs from Alaska" peanut butter and chocolate bar! My favorite combination is peanut butter and chocolate, so YUMMY!!!!!The stitch markers are really, really pretty, and the first ones that I have ever owned that aren't plastic rings! I don't know if my secret pal made them herself, but I already know what I'm going to use them for: Clapotis!! I just haven't started knitting Clapotis yet!
And then, just because I was up so darn early today, I took a picture of the sunrise because it looked so pretty.
I hope that everyone has a good weekend, especially my secret pal! And by the way, Secret Pal, thank you so much for the package. It made my day. Really it did.
