    Toomanyufos, you and I have the same understanding of football! I said to my DH a while back that to me the game is they all run around and then they fall down! And I do like football parties because of the good food. Of course some real serious football watchers can put a damper on a good party if they don't want anyone to talk during the game

    dee1245,
    Nice haul of goodies! Love the colors.

    Um, I have to side with Crqltr on the "tight ends"... I guess I'm too old, too... I actually think I've always been too old...lol.. Now I might notice if a guy has nice eyes.
    But on today's football players, they all seem so young to me..So it feels kinda like I'd be checking out one of my son's buddies. Like I'm thinking Aaron Rodgers was born the year I married.
    Yep, I'm O.L.D...

    Dee, you are too kind. Made me so happy to know you like what I sent and I hope you do more swaps now that you know how fun they are. This is the second one for me, everyone here has been so nice.

    ok for those who are bored to death waiting for the next months theme think greens, whites and cream. at does not mean necessarily St. Patricks Day but does not exclude it either. oh and here is a bit of trivia for you: the Irish during the famine obviously were very poor. If you have ever checked out vintage images of post cards you will see tons with pigs and lucky horse shoes and shamrocks on them. I never got the pig thing. Well it turns out that anyone who had a pig was rich. They had FOOD for their family. So hence the lucky pigs on the vintage images. Just in case you needed to or wanted to add a pig to your shamrocks. just saying.. lol. also golds are acceptable as well if you had gold you had no troubles at all. all little bits of interesting facts that bore the hell out of you. it happens. especially here in my swaps. grin.

    so get whipping up next months mug rugs and feel free to use your freedom of expression. As to side swaps please only to those who do the first swap first. If after signing up for one swap and wanting more let me know and if I get another to swap with I will let you know. This is not a free for all. I cant keep track of it all so please lets keep it to our group and then expand from there. gracias for your understanding on this. also this next month a small token included a note pad, a card, a candy is fine but limit yourself to 5.00 if you would so no one feels sad the other got more than you did. Also March will be easter plenty of time to fill your basket lol box with some extras if you andyour partner feel ok with this. only on paring agreement ONLY. not making anyone feel bad is the goal here. tada!

    Just sent Patchesnposies box on its way to NM. She should receive it Friday according to the tracking info.

    Patchesnposies and Elisabrat, I sent you a pm with tracking info.

    I just want to take a moment to say being a swappie with Patchesnposies had been a pleasure.

    best,
    deb in Maine
