"There is no exercise better for the heart than reaching down and lifting people up.”

I was planning on popping in tomorrow with a my weekly bake and a ramble on about my week and a few other lovely things that's happened in January, but I'm afraid the rambling couldn't wait. You see I pretty much have had the most loveliest Christmas and January thanks to some really gorgeous and lovely people out there and today again a very special bloggy friend also made my day a TRES happy day!

 

So about two weeks ago, the lovely Trishie from Under Lock and Key sent me this bundle of organic goodness all the way from Oz and she got it spot on, as hand cream is my little daily pleasure as is lip balm. These products not only smell beautiful, but really feel wonderful on your skin. Thank you Trishie for your kind and thoughtful gift, I am loving it!

 

 

 

Then last week I received this very yummy looking cotton from the very lovely Chrissie over at Chrissie Crafts and even though it looks good enough to eat, I can't wait to whip something up with this. Thank you Chrissie, you are a sweetie for bringing this back all the way from the US.

 

 

 

Today after a really lovely morning with some mums from school, more on that tomorrow, there was a knock on the door and the postie passed me this lovely parcel filled with the most gorgeous bits.

 

A really sweet little case filled with the most gorgeously wrapped pressies, from the cutest squirrel tin, rosey geranium soap, craft adhesive tape, a gorgeous sewing tape measure, a lovely pen and some lush Jenny Watson Merino wool. It was so much fun opening each little individual present, and I just couldn't believe that the lovely Andrea from Betty&Annie spoilt me with all this gorgeousness. She crocheted this stunning bucket, isn't it fab??!! I can't wait to fill it with lots of bits in my sewing room and to find a prime position for it. I love having little bits of crafters around my home and this is definitely one that will make me smile, thank you Andrea you are a sweetie and as your note said, I am most certainly having a very happy day!!

I would love to ramble on, but I have kids to get to bed so for now on a very happy note it is time to sign off.
