Lucy sent me this and more way back in June and I'm just getting to post it now. Notice her beautiful cross-stitch handiwork. The mini M&Ms have been carefully chilled and S-L-O-W-L-Y doled out on especially hot days to various members of my family. We try to savor our sugar, otherwise my kids go nutso with sugar high.

I love the bookmark, and my oldest keeps holding it and carrying it around and wrapping it around her hands so I have to keep retrieving it and reminding her that it is for books not hands. Those are her favorite colors and it is also very soft. The book, by the way, was GOLD. I read the whole thing the very day it arrived.

Thank you, Lucy!

Ooooooo, Christine, I love the goodies! The bookmarks are beautiful! That's so funny that we almost sent each other the same book. Of course the cookies were half gone in five minutes, so was the tea for that matter. Yummos! I've been looking for adequate ground cover for our desolate yard. The wildflower mix is perfect! And yarn! Ah, yarn. YARN! I'm thinking, knit bacteria, a fish...You watch, some interesting critter will soon emerge. Thank you so much!

I had to take separate pics of the bookmarks to post because they are so NEATO! I want to put the fiber one in a page protector, it's so pretty.

Michael Crichton is always a favorite for me.

Many mahalos,
