Look what I got!!!!
An amazing package from my Tammy of Lavendar Knits, my Knitter's Virtual Vacation Swap treater who completely spoiled me first with a "teaser" package that arrived a few weeks containing a puzzle featuring the beautiful Oregon coast where I have wanted to go for ages, and then, this heavy and densely packed box containing, dry roasted and natural hazelnuts, two kinds of jam (tayberry and marionberry), blackberry honey, milk chocolate bars, a dark chocolate, lavendar and blueberry organic chocolate bar (can't wait to try that!), chocolate rocks, a mug, coaster, pen and notepad with lovely handwritten note, and TWO SKEINS OF SOCKS THAT ROCK!!!!! All these items are, of course, from Oregon, and she even included for fun a jar of sand from a recent trip she took to the beach!
I am dying more than ever to visit the Oregon Coast and to send two skeins of Socks that Rock is beyond generous. Thank you so much Tammy!!! I have of course heard a lot about "STR" but have never bought or even seen any. I love love love pink and brown in particular but both skeins are just gorgeous and I keep fondling them.
Socks that Rock 100% Superwash Merino Mediumweight in Little Bunny Foo Foo and January One.
This is my second swap now and I must say, the experience of sending and receiving presents to from complete strangers from far away is quite something. Now I just have to get my package out to my treatee... (it's almost ready!)
HeeHee, I kept checking to make sure you got it and here it is!! I am so glad you like it. Enjoy all of the goodies. I had an absolute blast figuring out what I was going to get you. I love these swaps.

That is great you got to go somewhere you'd like to see sometime, what a nice package.
Those chocolate rocks are pretty neat, huh? I got my pal chocolate "shells" from the beach!
