sweet mail

what a sweet day yesterday was. not only was i still on my "high" from voting for the first time but i also got my blogging by mail goodies. stephanie from dispensing happiness, bless her, hosted this swap. 117 people signed up. my goodies in the mail came all the way from utah. thanks to shannon{who totally rocks} at designer gal + her handyman!! not only did i get some real yummy treats+recipes but another great blog to follow.
on with the goodies: i hate people with great handwriting. ok not hatin' just a little envious. mine Sucks! shannon stuck a note on each item telling me why it was her fav or what it would be good with or on etc..

violet crumble- an Australian candy bar that tasted like a chocolaty crunchy hollow marshmallow that had been roasted over a campfire. drool- boy was it real yummy. will need to find an on-line store that sells them. chocolate dressed as money- really cute + i love chocolate! some great recipes to try. will give report after making them. roasted wasabi coated green peas. what?? had to try them. definitely tasted the wasabi +wasabi kick. i liked the crunchiness of them too. indiana kettle corn- one of my favs too. and some gummies to share with the kiddos. though i might not share cuz' i'm greedy like that. kidding!

cute leaf bowl filled with peanuts and candy corn- yum, raspberry salsa -can't wait to bust that open and fancy crackers with cheese that has wine in it. oh goodness- i did not eat dinner last night!

thanks again to hostess stephanie and to shannon for all the goodies!

** want more swaps to do- this was FUN!** *** i hope my person got her goodies, haven't heard anything***
