christmas packets of ultra awesome-ness

happiness! today i received not one, but two packages in the mail! omg, i have really generous friends, i am counting my blessings! christmas is starting early for me this year, i think, heheh...

ulrich ulrich pentako pentako

the first package came from thalia in singapore. she has started a new project called the avocadolite farm, which is a collection of mini crochet characters that she made and designed herself. her husband ari, is in charge of writing each character's stories. the mini figures are available for purchase on the site. each character is one-of-a-kind and has their own unique stories.

quick! adopt them before they run out!

the second package came from kathya in germany. kathya the überfräu-oh-mighty-chef made us a batch of homemade dark-chocolate-dried-cherry-pecan cookies, packaged in a beautiful christmas tin, with a lovely accompanying card. time for milk and cookies for me then!

in the last weeks, i've also received packages in the mail from adam in new york and from patricia in sweden. :)

seriously, guys, thank you SO much for everything. your happy packages just made my day (and robert's too)... i hope he gets home soon, otherwise i'll eat all the cookies...

woohoo! they've made it safely there! i'm so happy, especially now that they have found a good home with you and Robert! i was afraid that they'd be left out in the Netherland while you guys have moved to Milano...

by the way, are you guys in Milano now?

thanks, thal! no, kita masih di belanda, karena permit gue di paspor belom keluar, so we missed our planes yesterday... we're going on the 23rd instead.

nice Christmas gifts! I've never received a gift from someone on the net, I do but it's not a stuff, but something like account, etc.

And ... how long did making crochet become Thalia's interest? Or has it already been her interest before? wow, Thalia is more more creative! Nice crochets really and I like the new site she has created :)

Hmm ... Chocolate cookies! ARgHhHhHhHh! I like chocolate cookies :D

The Pentako is really cute! 15 USD for one of these dollies (and free shipping) seems like a very good Christmas present. I might order some!
