made in england
26 June 2007Is there anything more British than tea? And chocolate from Marks and Spencer? I think not, especially when they come in a surprise box sent by mrspao!
Benkei V liked the inlaid wood bracelet very much, thank you. Doesn’t it fit him well?
I quickly rescued it and put it on my left wrist, where it fits perfectly.
And I love this wooden vase! It’s goofy, but a vase that is Picasso-proof is a very good thing… I put my spare crochet hook in it, and set it amongst my pitcherfuls of needles. Grab it! Plop it back in! Having a crochet hook that doesn’t walk away is a novel concept around here. (I’m looking at you, Picasso.)
I love this! From Wales, Fyberspates blue faced leicester sock yarn in the fiesta colorway. Mine. All mine! Destined to be one of the socks I’ll knit for Summer of Socks. Definitely. Because these socks will be my cheer me up socks. I just know it.
Thank you thank you thank you! Mrspao, you’re thebomb.com. For real.






Doesn’t she do fabulous packages?!
Glad you liked it
Hehe - I love that picture of Benkei and the bangle!
Oooh, such a nice package! The bangle looks lovely on Benkei.
Ooooh…really like that yarn! And the bracelet is very nice too….and the vase…and the tea. That mrspao…she did good.
What a terrific gift from a caring friend across the way
I like the concept of “cheer up” socks. Must consider this…
