I received my package from Jeff (Hoppa) and boy was I happy! He sent me so many wonderful things: two quilt magazines, some Skittles and Werthers caramels, treats for my puppies, an awesome magnetic, a Bumblebee coffee mug, a package of needles, a jelly roll, some notecards, an applique flower basket, Bible word search and some tea! I feel like it's Christmas:-) Thank you, Jeff !!

Thank you laquita
Deleted my original post because I put the wrong name.
Shesh am I bad today with names.
Laquita,
THANK YOU for the AWESOME sp gift that I pulled from
the mailbox today. I don't know if it was delivered today
or yesterday because both hubs and I forgot to check mail
yesterday (ooppss we're bad).
However my little tiny "apartment" size box was packed so
full that my mail carrier put a little note in saying "popular much?"
He gets a kick out of all the mail I get every month.
But here is what I received from Laquita.
Fabrics that has sparkles to them, and 3 orange fq's.
flower shaped nail file that the petals come off to use,
but it is just to cute to use.
Journal pad and variety of teas.

OFF TOPIC ALERT:
Apparently someone had a problem with my thread about the patriotic quilt blocks for the Joann employee entering the Air Force. So ... I moved it to my QB blog.

I got my package today from Starshine! She sent me some pale yellow, black and white polka dots and floral fabric! Also a notepad and several Jo-Ann craft and sew papers! I loved the one that is the padded laptop case! A beautiful postcard with a Japanese floral quilt on it and chocolate! YES! MOUNDS CHOCOLATES AND THEY DIDN'T COME MELTED! 
So they're in the fridge cooling a bit before I have my "me time"! Thank you Tricia for the wonderful package love it all! Would take a pic but I can't find my camera with all the moving stuff

some really awesome packages coming in. keep the pics rolling in i am getting some inpiration.
krystyna i voted for your scarf.
to those who inquired of the scottie dog licorice: i first found it at the dollar store and bought when it read all natural. it was the greatest. then i bought a whole bunch of bags and scarfed them down.... choking on 1 little piece that lodged in my throat when i double fisted ate them. i couldnt believe how good they taste. yum yum. you can smell the anise and licorice root. ummm. the scottie dogs are like gummi bears in texture oh and the flavor, the flavor is true candy making. they have sooo much flavor not the sugary stuff you get from a twizzler but this is real flavor. can't you tell i'm in love.
after searching on the internet yesterday, i see that trader's joe sells them under their own label. i was on my way out the door to trader's joes when another search returned that i can buy them up to 10lb bags through amazon from candy wholesalers. the brand is gimbal's made in san franciso. i saw blogs about this candy, others looking to buy larger quantities are where to buy them outside of their local store. so i started posting on the blogs the sites on amazon, candy wholesale sites and about trader's joe. i placed my order and now just waiting on my scotties. lifes little pleasures. now to get tomm some sugar free ones.
there is also a red scottie dog for those of you who like red. i won't be trying it so i can't tell you what it tastes like but if is anything like the black ones (the yum flavor) the red has to be awesome also.
