CESOB Swap

April 5, 2008 By Mindy

5 Apr

One of my Ravelry groups is CESOB.  We had a swap recently.  The swap was called "Getting To Know You Bitches".  That should tell you a little bit about CESOB.

I received my package on Thursday afternoon.  It was one of the only highlights of my day.  Highlight #1 was getting the go ahead on the IUI for this coming Monday.  Highlight #2 was the package.  After I opened it up, I smiled and went to bed.  I have been sick this entire week.  Monday was death.  Tuesday I felt better but weak.  Wednesday I was mostly normal.  Thursday started iffy but proceeded to death status.  Yesterday was better.  Anyway, here’s my package.

Package2

Here’s each piece of the package:

Chocolove

A bar of Chocolove Belgian Milk Chocolate.  Inside is a love poem.  So sweet!  I’m waiting for the right moment to break into it.
Zumbar_soap

A bar of ZumBar Goat’s Milk Soap.  It’s thick and lovely.  It smells so, so good.  Clean and sweet.  I’m going to use it when I take a shower this evening.  I’m a sucker for products like this.
Twistedsisters

A book that I love and have been checking out of the library continuously.  Yay!
Moosetracks

A book for Liam.  We’ll be reading it tonight.  I’m all for new books.  I’m kind of tired of reading the same ones over and over and over again.
Str1

Yay! Yay! Yay!  Socks that Rock!  My very first skein of Socks that Rock.  Watch me shake my butt and do a happy dance. 

My partner who sent me these gifts was Friender.  Thanks Jen, you rock!

    Yay! I’m so glad you liked your package. The soap is almond, by the way. I should have written that on the note. I’m so glad you’re feeling better! I just drooled over that STR on the website and was glad that it looks even better in person. Can’t wait to see the socks you knit with it.
