Oh wow, there's a whole army of us that are allergic to housework. Sorry, you're not mine, but I did make mine something.

Lynnie -- That's a good point -- maybe that's why we all get so caught up in the swaps here. I guess we're just insecure to exchange homemade stuff because we're afraid it will be examined too closely. We should be thinking instead we know how it was made and what it took to make it and appreciate it all the more, probably more so than any noncrafter. Now I have some ideas of things to make.

Sent my partners off today.Boxed up and wrapped in a bright red paper. That should put a smile on someone's face. I know everyone at the post office was smiling at it.
