[Venuila]

Np, glad it got worked out.

Have been great packages so far! Only a few left, so reminder time to get in your five posts after mail day if you haven't done so already.

Christmas Napkins - love them

Funny, since moving from QC earlier this year, I get so excited when I find the littlest things in French.

It was a pleasure shopping for you, Venuila. You had a great wish list. Enjoy .

Finally got a photo uploaded!

FallenPixels, thank you so much for everything you chose for my package...it couldn't be more perfect . I imagine I'm not the easiest person to shop for and often wonder if I can actually hear the groaning after a new buddy reads my wish list .

Aveeno moisturizing lotion
Blistex medicated lip balm The climate is so dry here that moisturizers and lip balms are a necessity!
Dr. Bronner's Castile soap I'll be using this when I make my home made laundry detergent
Organic popping corn For this weirdo without a microwave, lol.
After Eight chocolate mints I don't know where I'll find the strength to not touch these until Christmas!
Clorets gum Better known as nicotine replacement therapy in this household (celebrating 8 months today )
Yorkshire orange pekoe tea We're looking forward to trying this, Fallen, as it's a new brand for us.
Baking and pancake mix I never would have thought of this; great idea for rushed mornings!
Rolling pin I can finally stop using glasses!
A 3-set of springform pans Can't wait to start baking with these.

And three wonderful recipes for:

Stuffed vegetarian peppers
Mexican chicken bake
Slow cooker chicken stoganoff

Looking forward to making these...the stroganoff has already been requested to go on this week's menu. I'll let you know how it turns out.

Thank you so much once again, FallenPixels

I actually prefer specific wish lists you know the person wants what they are getting.
The tea is fairly strong, I buy it from the Brit store for my morning cuppa

Wow, what great packages everyone

[super807]

As you can tell, there was something in the package for Izzy (and even if there wasn't, she would claim something) - they got PureSnacks freeze dried chicken

Can't send a package to a home with cats without including something for said cats. In my experience, cats must investigate any time a new box comes into the house. It's more fun if there is something in the box for them too.

Venuila, is that your kitty in your avi? Every time I see it, it reminds me of my Oreo (passed away in June). My Oreo was more white than your kitty, but has a similar look.

Here he is:

[Venuila]

Awww beautiful. Yes, that's my kitty in the pic, her name is Oreo too!

Your Oreo is very pretty. She looks really sweet. Although mine was a male, everyone seemed to think he was a girl. I think it's cause he was so darn fluffy.

A few years after I got him, I found a list of top 10 most popular cat names. My other cat's name was Shadow, which was #1 on the list, and Oreo was also on the list (just can't remember what number). When I named him, I thought I was being original .

Yeah, she's pretty sweet I guess, LoL! She's not NOT sweet but she's not very cuddly and stuff...only when I was pregnant did she come sit on my lap. Sometimes she comes and headbutts me when I am going to bed but for the most part she keeps to herself, lol. DS LOVES to chase her though and try and sit on her and stuff lmao...which she doesn't seem to mind She doesn't even run away from him...they are both pretty gentle with each other so I guess they enjoy it, lol.

Ya, I thought I was being original also. I know of at least four people now with Oreos, hehe. When we got her we had her sister too, which we almost named Shadow but went with Midnight which is also probably up there on that list.

It came in a large shoe box that provided them with hours of entertainment last night (I am mean and took it off them because they were fighting over it this morning), it has an attached lid so Quincy was sitting in it and jumping up and smacking Izzy as she walked by... which she fell for every time.

I have read that head-butting is actually a sign of affection from a cat. So when she head-butts you, she is telling you she loves you. My Oreo did that all the time.

Although my Shadow was black, that's not why I named her that. She followed me everywhere. Always. Had her for 14 years and she really lived up to her name. She was my little shadow.
