Deblyn Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 ..... I certainly was yesterday morning! The parcel delivery van pulled up outside the gate and emerged with a very large long parcel. I thought it was for next door but it was for me!! It was from my Secret Pal Westbrook! I wasn't able to open it straight away because I had a visitor. As soon as she had gone I took it upstairs to open. so much thought had gone inot what this extremely generous lady had put together for me: a beautiful vegetarian cookbook measuring spoons and jug so I can make the US recipes in it! flower-themed fridge magnets butterfly ornaments for the garden fairy ornaments for the garden (the real ones will like them!) a novel by her favourite author a tape measure to measure out the squares for the quilting exchange! garden seeds - Californian poppies - one of my favourite and a big bundle of seeds to grow ingredients for Mexican cooking - luckily I have some knowledge of Spanish so will be able to work out what is written on the back! an oven thermometer - useful as I don't know how accurate the dial on my old Rayburn is! a lovely little teapot for one with stacking milk jug and sugar bowl - it will look beautiful on my Welsh dresser when it's not full of tea! A lovely letter from the lady herself So thankyou thankyou thankyou Westbrook; it's been a bit of a difficult two weeks for various reasons and your parcel cheered me up no end. Thankyou so much for your generosity and big heart. Love Lowlander Quote Link to comment
