I have my package from Java Cat! I have many samples of Peet's Coffee, plus a bunch of other cool and interesting stuff. So far, I have had "Major Dickinson's" coffee AIFG. I'm trying to figure out how to compare them.
I suspect my delivery time was caused by the World's Worst Mailman, who seems to have spread out the mail that was saved when I was out of town.
I just received an abolutely beautiful handmade pottery jug and sugar dish from Calli. Thank you so much! It's a little bit of Christmas joy in the gloom of January!
The cats are equally overjoyed by the gift of foam packing peanuts.
The original post office mark says Dec 9th, and I got my package notification yesterday, so it may have had some adventures along the way. They claim they tried to deliver it then, but I seem to remember it being awfully snowy around then...
msbelle, I just got the magnets! Thank you! I especially like the tiny pink pigs!
I got a fabulous package from Deena yesterday! It was from Ten Thousand Villages, one of my favorite stores, and it had a gorgeous red-and-black embroidered purse from Laos -- big enough to fit a book, which is key -- and three delicious-smelling soaps from India. I can't wait to use them all! Also, the package was gift-wrapped with a very pretty little star ornament on top, which is the second ornament I received from Deena, since she also sent me a beautiful red-and-gold one from Suzi several weeks ago. Thank you, thank you, Deena!
Oh, good! I'm glad the gift finally made it to you, Jars.

I love that store too. My cousin Barney (Slayer) sometimes sends me beautiful items from the one in Lincoln, NE.
Yay! I'm so glad you like it Kate! I was a little worried since it wasn't actually on any wish list, but that's one of my favorite stores too.
I'm a part of the slacker exchange as well this year. Neither sent mine (though I'll start working on it and hopefully, send it within the next two weeks) nor received, but I just wanted to tell to whoever got my name in it: if there are any troubles with finding me anything, you may want to ping Nilly and ask her for the list I sent her last year. I believe the indications are somewhat more clear there. Again, just in case of troubles and worries and concerns and etc..
