She said it best; "that is the most beautiful swap I have ever seen" :) Then chaos ensued in the car as we fought like puppies over a can of kibble to divvy up the goods! Oh, the robot- I love her (I think it's a girl, hard to tell)! And the little gnome-man and yummy tea stuff, candies, lychee goodies, miniature lovelies, ah, I could go on and on. Oh!

But I went anyway. I'm in a line of about 18 people and the Postwoman says, does anyone have biz that is not a cash transaction... I raise my hand and walk right up to the front. Awesome! I open little box in my car and find these delish leopard pasties w/tassels...hey...I have some "CFM" pumps that match. Thanks Mija...they turned my day around. Besos, Yvonne Chavez

 

Comment: Oh my goodness, I started to get teary-eyed when I went through the contents. Everything was 100% PERFECT!!! I'm sorry if my lack of color preference confused you - I usually go for vibrant combinations, and maybe I should put that down. But even cooler was when you did some extra research on my pages! (I do have to update my blog, though - D'OH!) Oh, and the lychee gummies are FANTASTIC!!! I just started the alli diet, and since I can have fruit candies, I'll have to hold on to these for whenever I have a sweet tooth. And the Shakespearean insults are just DELIGHTFUL! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!
