Thank you (straw)berry much ;)

Good evening

What a week - its been hot & hectic here. Everyday something special to remember and somewhere special for someone to be.

Hasn't the weather been great - a bit hot to sleep properly in sometimes but that's what fans were invented for!!

The postie called yesterday with a parcel for me :) - it was my Strawberry Swap parcel from Jackie @ Sew Special Bears;

Inside

Inside that (yes I know I'm teasing)

Lots of strawberry loveliness - a mug, some napkins, fabric, a jelly, a gorgeous card and chocolates (well the box was strawberry red ;) ). Also in there were 2 items that need special pics of their own;

A knitting bag - something I've wanted for a while - I will now feel a proper knitter when I take it too S&B next week :)

Jackie had also included a very pretty strawberry covered tin;

and hiding inside that was this really sweet little mini album for memories of this summer - definitely something which I shall enjoy filling up;

Thank you Jackie so much for my lovely pressies and for Pixiedust @ Faerie Nuff for organising this lovely swap.

I ventured into the garden this morning to pick some strawberries to put together with the jelly as a pudding for tonight - sadly just after this photo was taken a big monster came in and ate the strawberries thus depriving the children of a pudding tonight - heyho I'll try again tomorrow (he's out all day!!);

See you soon - lots to show you.
