Goodies from the Netherlands...
First off, the package smelled heavenly. Yvonne posted this way before Christmas, and at the time, this coffee was freshly ground. I must tell you, it didn't lose any smell along the way.
And how can I go wrong with chocolate for me?
Yummy, spicy-smelling tea-candles.
Some tea (Oolong! I used to work in a Chinese restaurant and that's what we served!!) MORE chocolate + coffee, and a little tin of Roomboter Babbelaars, um, yep. The only English I can read on the box says Butter Sweets - made with butter, sugar, glucose and salt; how can you go wrong?
How can we forget the Wollmeise!!! (#5) Colorway Fratello (sounds boyish, doesn't it?), also, an excellent pattern. I'll try to get a better picture of the yarn if the sun comes out later. In the meantime - I am one lucky girl! You can go visit my friend Yvonne here, if you like. She posts bi-lingually most of the time.
Again, thank you Yvonne!!!!

What a nice package! And I love the last installment of STR yarn, wonderful colors.
Glad to hear Ozzie is getting better. Hope he continues to improve.
You asked why I am feeding my one puppy. Honestly, I don't know why but for some reason, she simply won't nurse on her mom. She nurses from a bottle, so she can suck, she just doesn't nurse on mom. Strange, but I'm not about to let her starve herself so, I'm bottle feeding her.

Sounds like the perfect package to curl up in a ball with your knitting/chocolate/tea and start those yummy, warm socks.
I'm so jealous! What a great thing to get in the mail.
(Go Ozzie Go!)

What fabulous swag! I am so jealous. I can hardly wait for the sock club to start up so I can receive something in the mail besides homeschool curriculum.
The boys have a couple scrimmages this weekend but the big tourney in Moorhead is next weekend. Woot! We're taking a bus, so it should be a wild weekend.
