In other news...a month ago I signed up for a "swap" on one of the blogs I frequent. The theme was "My Favorite Things" and you had to send your partner at least three things you love. I had so much fun putting together my package to send to Sara in Washington I sent her the Camelback water bottle I can't live without, a headband because I love putting my hair back these days, letterpress paper, a CD (of course), the new Cliff Nectar bars that have great packaging and are also delicious and some accessories from H&M. I was delighted to read that everything arrived safely and that she liked it!
My package came last week from Casey as well and it was cute as can be too. I got an apron that actually made me squeal it's so cute, a fun head scarf, the best smelling candle that I've already been burning constantly and some great magazines I'm tearing apart for my inspiration book.
Just another reason that yes, I love the www. SO much.

With all the respect and admiration for your talent I leave this: you are a nerd. Which is something to broadcast because it's good. The world needs nerds. Especially in a city (read: Huntington Beach) where posturing is an art form. Go nerds. I am a nerd too...just a really really cool nerd.
It's true-all the fantastic taste in the world can't hide the fact that down deep, I bleed geek.
but let's just keep in mind that someone in this room owns Mr. Mom so at least I'm in good company.
This is totally cool. Something that I had never heard of since joining the blog-world. I guess that would be good way to find out more about the strangers that you read about and that read about you.
PS - I link you in my most recent blog post.
Katie,
I got the yummy smelling candle (and there are even yummier smelling ones around Christmas) at a local stationary shop in Sugar Land, Tx. I want to say the candle people are local, but, maybe you can look them up online? I am so happy that you liked what I sent you! That makes me happy.
thanks casey, i'll have to see if anywhere here sells those candles. i'm addicted!
and Thom-the judging seems slightly fishy BUT i'm glad to you see making such a strong showing. your dedication to blogging has not gone unnoticed.
I hate yet to do a swap, although everyone I know who has done it loves their packages.
You got some great things too!
do you ever look like your sister!
hey! SHE looks like ME.
veeda...hmmm, perhaps i'll have to organize a swap right here on replikate..
I adore the idea of The Swap...But is it because I am so inexperienced on the www that I am completely freaked out by doing anything that would reveal any ACTUAL personal information about myself? Am I just being naive, or is this the paranoia sinking in again?
"Mr Mom." ahhahaahahaaa...
