The Postman has been very kind to me lately. Well, actually, some lovely people from the internet have - the Postman actually is a bit of a plum (While You Were Out Card when you didn't even knock and I was in view of the door? Not so much Postie!).
The first package I received a few weeks back after winning Em at OhGoshEm's handmade Christmas giveaway. She had made sets of gifts for friends and family for Christmas and had one left over which she very kindly gave away on her blog. I was over the moon to win as I'd been following her Christmas DIY's with significant envy (mine were just not as good!) so to have my very own set was very exciting! The hot chocolate is blocks of chocolate you melt into a mug of hot milk (I had one today and it was just to die for) and there's even a tiny test tube of Baileys to go in it! The Christmas cookies are a set you can make yourself and I cannot wait to use the mulling kit, bath bars, vanilla essence and limoncello. I highly recommend you check out Em's blog, it always puts a smile on my face!
Lovely! Lucky you x
ReplyDeleteThere's nothing better than a letter/package to arrive home to (especially if it's not something you've bought online lol) These things all look so lovely! Glad you liked my little letter and postcard :)
