Late Birthdays

I love it when Birthday gifts arrive late, especially because I was completely caught off guard and had NO idea why Sharon would be sending me something. Woohoo....what a fantastic surprise! My Birthday was 2 months ago why would I suspect anything, she even included a big birthday candle, you should smell it.....Mmmmm coconut, as soon as I opened the box I could smell it. She had everything wrap separately in tissue paper....it's just like Christmas....oops it's my birthday. The Hi! customer card looks interesting, wasn't sure if she accidentally dropped this in the box but it turned out to be a needlebook, it has needles and threader inside. I have a few antique ones I've been collecting. The note pad is funny, it says "Making a List and Chicken it Thrice", I don't often check my list 3 times. Sharon must have remembered I collect chickens. There's a cute tray with flowers, maybe I'll use it in my living room for a pretty place to keep pins and needles. There's some funny M&M's tucked in the box, I've never seen Strawberry Peanut butter M&M or Wildly Cherry either for that matter, I better hide these quick so my DH doesn't see them, he has a big sweet tooth or three. Oh my, I had so much fun opening this box, thanks Sharon for thinking of me.
Look at this sweet little package all tied up pretty.....it's a little quilt. Awww.....I LOVE IT!


Okay....now to stop playing and get back to packing. The temperatures in Cairo this week are mid 80's to 90's....oh boy that's warm. Sat is coming very fast!
Happy Stitching and have a great Easter weekend.
