Halloween Gift Exchange

I think it would be fun to do another gift exchange. I was thinking around Halloween--back-to-school is over, and the holiday season hasn't cranked up yet. It wouldn't necessarily have to be halloween themed, though. Anyone interested? You'd have to be comfortable with sending me your address. I don't have enough money to be a creepy stalker, though, so no worries.
Ooh I'm starting to get excited about when I receive mine now! No sign yet but that's fine because I know the one I sent hasn't arrived yet either...though I'm just as excited to hear when it does!
By my calculations, it should be there either by Friday earliest, or next Friday latest...I so hope it is early!
You are welcome!! And, thank you. I was sooo hoping you'd love it! I've been on this side of the pond stressing out about it....
oh man, there was no way you needed to stress about that. Super package. Seriously.

this applies to 'my person' too. I'm nervous as hell about it.
So, I held out until 5p your time, but now I'm going to bed. I can't wait to see your goodie pics, oww. I've thought for a while now that if you and lgg knew each other in real life you'd be completely irredeemable together, so it's awesome that she got you. :o)
you'd be completely irredeemable together
is this a good thing? ; )
sorry, but I'm just leaving work now , and have to call by my chiropractor on the way home so I'll probably be home by 6:30... but will definitely take those pics tonight so I can share the awesomeness! : )
Yes. It's a good thing. ;)b

Right?! I had to look up the word to verify that it meant what I thought it did. It does. But I'm not sure I get it...
oh my goodness, I opened the lemon poppyseed cookie and it tastes like essence of sin in a deliciously innocent round-cookie-shaped disguise. That good.
Also, I tried a bit of the date/fig bread and it's also super yummy.
You're so going to make me fat, but happy.

I love it! And that is my fav cookie from them... I will replicate it one day!
Wow that package is just amazing! Definitely beats mine too, you win llg!
"My person" I checked on your package and they said it should be arriving on Monday, so look out for it....I really hope you like it. I forgot to include a note to explain everything, so I hope you can figure out what goes with what. It is a crazy jumble of things. Some go together and some were just random things I grabbed on a whim. ***so nervous***
my package should be there Friday or Saturday so.. yay! I really hope it gets there Saturday because I don't want it to sit in the PO over the weekend :/ And I really want it to get there so my person gets it soooooon!!
I got my package!!!
Thank you sooooo much NMPixie!! You are such a sweetheart for setting up this whole exchange and on top of that you sent a really sweet care package <3 Thank you so much--I have had some pretty rough days what with being in the hospital and going through a break up :( your package reached me in the nick of time!!
Pixie sent homemade and really yummy cookies and muffins, chocolates, Luna bars, camel corn, super cutie Halloween socks, and a very nice card with a note that made me laugh out loud!
All the treats are being shared with my good friend and fellow intern and the socks are such a great thing right now--they are perfect for my Wellies!! You must be psychic because I was just thinking how I needed some knee-highs and here they are!!!

To my person, I will be sending your package most likely tomorrow...soooo look out for it next week...sorry I've been late on it and I hope you like it (fingers crossed, nervous too!!)

Awwww :) Thanks Pixie! I ope it gets better too! I have already demolished the cupcakes! They were so good! <3 Thank you so much again! The yummys are such a treat!! <3
I haven't heard yet if my person has gotten the package and I thought it would have been there by Tuesday so I'm a little worried that something happened to it... :-/
I haven't gotten a package, if anyone has sent one, and is wondering. I'm checking every day!
