Thank you VERY much Karen and i hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

And thank-you Jenn for putting this on you did a great job

My present came from r_b and I must say she knows how to pack parcels. And if the limit was about $10.00, she is the best shopper in the world. Thank you so much r_b. Everything is so great and it was so much fun opening all the little gifts. Here is what Ruby sent to me:

1. 2 Chocolate Nib Bars
2. A whole bunch of chocolate so that I am guaranteed the extra 5 lbs this xmas. They were yummy, thanks. And no, I am not sharing......lol I enjoy putting on those extra pounds every Xmas. Well, maybe I will share a few with hubby.
3. 2 Samples of Foambath
4. 2 of the cutest Xmas Picture Frames. They are Glass with winter scenes painted on them. Isabelle's pic is going to look cute surrounded by snowmen.
5. A snowman Candle holder. He is so cute, sitting on my buffet, greeting everyone that comes to sit at my table.
6. A little sample of some perfume. And it is nice. Think I will try and find some of it. Daughter said it smelled nice on me.
7. PlantPassion Scarecrow Liquid Soap. This soap has the prettiest holder I almost hate to use it.

And a beautiful card.

I really enjoyed opening everything. My daughter had to open the little perfume. She said it looked pretty suspicious like something you would smoke......lol R_b All the bubble wrap around it gave it that appearance.... Thank you so much for putting a smile on my face and I do hope you enjoy mine.
