With goodies like that, I wouldn't mind knowing who my "secret" angel is. Some secrets are too good to keep.

Ummm nooo, they have supermarkets much the same as anywhere else but with less choice! Aisles of the same type of yoghurt, powdered potato, plain potato chips... There's more 'French' produce in UK supermarkets! There are always at least 2 bakers in a village of any size but they sell the same type of bread just made into different shapes! :shock: So much for French haute cuisine!

OK - end of rant, sometimes I get homesick for Tesco's (UK supermarket! :D )

Oh really K!!! Well, now I'm disappointed. We went to the grocery in W. Germany and Holland when we were there and decided that we would not be able to buy any canned goods unless they had pictures on them...thats the first time it hit me what it would be like to be illiterate...kinda scary!

Once in Holland I was in a Turkish supermarket - they had some fascinating stuff. I bought what looked like chopped tomatoes in a can and made a chilli with them, adding chilli powder as usual. Well, they were already chilli-fied! We couldn't eat it! :shock: they only showed tomatoes on the can! :lol:

crkathleen 10-06-2009 02:41 PM

kwhite 10-09-2009 01:29 PM

This is cool guys. We are up to 36. Let's keep it going. I love the idea of shipping my packages to others so that they are shipped from another state. Oh this is going to be so much fun!!!!

Shelanie 10-10-2009 09:23 PM

So any idea on how many have officially signed up ?

kwhite 10-14-2009 08:38 AM

45 at this point. YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I still need some info from some of you. If I PM'ed you with a request please reply. I will be sending out an e-mail soon to verify I have everyone. Please look in your junk mail too since it is going to so many it may be tagged as spam.

This is going to be such fun!!!

STAR 10-14-2009 01:00 PM

kwithe- just pm'd my info! hope it was enough, was probably too much :oops: I am so excited can't wait to find out who I have!!! Thanx for doing this :mrgreen:

sandpat 10-14-2009 03:53 PM

Okey dokey....will you post here when you have emailed out all the info to us so we'll know when to look in that ole junk mailbox??? Its scary in there!! :shock: Don't wanna go in unless I have to! :roll:

I'm sooo excited to find out who I get!!!!!

SaraSewing 10-14-2009 03:59 PM

I signed up - sounds like a blast. Please note that I changed my sign-in name from saravincent to SaraSewing for reasons of privacy. Kinda like getting a divorce or married and having to cover all your legal bases. But all info on me is the same. Thanx.

sandpat 10-14-2009 05:43 PM

Awww Sara....and I thought someone had stolen your cat! What a relief that its still you!

kwhite 10-14-2009 05:48 PM

hahaha

tigger5464 10-14-2009 05:53 PM

Will you let us know all the details so we can remember to start, please? Unless I have a reminder set on my cell or something...I'm terrible about remembering. :oops: Thanks

kwhite 10-14-2009 07:22 PM

Yes I will.

Will you post when you send the e-mails so if we don't get one we can contact you?

Minnie 10-15-2009 08:29 PM

Hi kwhite;
I PM'd you with my info.....Did you get it?? Just double checking....

gramqlts 10-15-2009 09:04 PM

I'm In!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm also a firm believer in the monthly surprises, either card in mail or Squishie. Been reading all about these squishies for awhile and couldn't figure out where they were coming from. Now I can get some of my own and send some of my own. Can't wait to get started shopping and packaging stuff up. Sounds sooooooooooooo exciting!!!!

kwhite, sent you a pm, let me know if you don't get it.


sandpat 10-16-2009 05:46 AM

Oh goodie....more people to play! I love this idea for swapping!!

Knot Sew 10-16-2009 02:27 PM

I was thinking a card a week and a gift a month....... halmark has cards for 44 or 88 cents...and 2/1.00 at dollar stores...love the funny ones :D

kwhite 10-16-2009 02:32 PM

kwhite 10-16-2009 02:33 PM

Gramquilts and Minnie Check and check!! Welcome.

I'd be good for a gift a month w/a card...but, one a week might work only sometimes here at this crazy house! Unless they'd want all 4 cards at once:)LOL

Knot Sew 10-17-2009 03:35 PM

I want to get started....can we send them just a christmas card and hey all members it would be nice to fluff out your profiles...tell about job ,kitchen color, bath room, or bedroom decor. lots of odd details color u hate :D will we post when we hear from our secret angel

tigger5464 10-18-2009 08:06 AM

Ok....Am I missing out or am I just sorta jumping the gun as to wanting to get started? lol....Just wondering if anything has been sent out as to names or the like yet? I just don't want to miss something cuz I'm not able to check in at the board every day. Thank you :)
Oh yeah....I have very neutral colors in my home but I love to accent things with muted colors and my favorite color is emerald green. Darker batiks are a real fav of mine also.
As I am just getting back into sewing since becoming an empty nester... I'm trying to build a stash and working on getting all of my rulers and scissors and all the rest of the great stuff that goes with quilting. Hope that this info will help whomever ends up with my name. Hugs to all and hope everyone stays healthy :)
