I got my SP and one thing she wants doesn't cost my anything.

Ok, SP, last month I gave it away, so I need to be careful. Let's see....you and I like the same kind of beverage. We both like to read. And your "other" hobby is something I've never tried! I'm making you something super special!! But I do need to go and find just the right fabric. Oh, rats! Another trip to the quilt store.

That was supposed to have the "laughing face" behind it, ha, ha!

I haven't gotten a name... :( boo hoo. Hope I haven't been overlooked. Hope Lori got my info sent on 6/27. I want to play too!

Lots of hints going out. Hope your 'pals' don't guess you out!

The price jumps to a whopping $42.75 for the same package sent via (blue) Express Delivery Priority Mail International. So I'll be cramming up to 3.99 pounds into the largest box they have!

If you read starshine's post on the last page, you'll see that you can send cheaper - by weight (which is why I consciously ask for patterns etc as they're nice and light).

We International people are always grateful that people are willing to send overseas :)

Usually, when I get my secret pal information, a light comes on and I know just what I want to send. This time my mind is a total blank. This is awful. I hope something comes to mind soon.
