Package from America :: New Year Yarn Along

A treat arrived in the post this morning and what a treat it was:


Thanks Eva!
 
 
 

Opening.
 
 
 
Gluten Free Magazine.
 
 
 
 
Some lovely tea and a cute teddy bear tin for individual sachets.
 
 
 
We also received a gluten free pizza baking mix and a packet of "Highlander Blend" coffee made over here.  I love the fact that despite adverse circumstances Jeremiah 29 v 11 was named and claimed.  This same verse was "given" to me by a dear friend and religious sister and during times of difficulty I am always "reminded" of those plans the Lord has for me, such a comfort.
 
 
I'm still working on some Christmas gift making which is OK given the fact that it is still within those twelve days of Christmas!  I've finally finished the liesl for our daughter Kathryn:
 
 
The wool is from the patons Eco chunky range which is undyed yarn.  I think the colourway is "storm", essentially it is a very dark grey shot through with lighter tones.
 
Not much reading going on in these parts but Benedict and I have been sharing "A Christmas Carol" audio book, will that do?!

That's so funny to see my things on your table! I tried to pick American items, i.e. items I hadn't seen in England last time I was there. I thought that the pizza mix might come in handy when you are in a rush to get some food ready. We drink sleepy time a lot at night. It's child friendly!

That's funny about the Bible verse. I must have sensed that!
