gift swaps,....

i was so happy to have a box sent to me in the mail, that i sat it in a place of honor for two days before i opened it... So on Saturday... in the setting of my little sunroom... i opened a very special little box. (yea i know i am a bit corky .. and some of you are amazed that i held off the gift for two days...but it felt like a huge honor to have such a cool box!! ...so i had to savor the moments fully)

that is a very nice letter from Anita.....

OH oH oh... what has she sent me!!!!
i dash out of my little sunroom, in such a blur of fabric and happy screeches....
only to return in a fine cotton wrap skirt....(made in India)

and much to my gleeful delight... this little wrap fit around...

(ok sorry about the belly. .. i do feel rather self conscious about this photo, but i did want Anita to see me in it. - and i won't be able to wait until my body is less to wear this gem!)

Anita Seriously????
oh my goodness!!! too much girlfriend!!!!

....i love it, love it, love it.....

Thank you so much, you so rock the jute box.
