My Christmas Swap Package Arrived Today

A bloggers group I am a member of, Momdot, decided to do a Christmas swap this year. My partner for the swap was Jessica, from Mommy2Cents. The “rules” for the swap were to include:

  • An ornament for the Christmas Tree
  • Something that signifies the state you are from
  • Candy
  • and a white elephant gift.

I think Jessica did a very good job, because even though I told her I do not have a Christmas tree, she sent this so cute Christmas Tree ornament, which I hung above the window in our living/dining area of the RV:

Because Jessica’s home is in Florida, she sent me a jar of Orange Marmalade, which Fabgrandpa and I both love. It is what’s for breakfast next week with our bagels and toast!

Jessica also paid attention when I answered my likes and dislikes about foods. I told her I love sweets, but I am diabetic and can’t eat wheat, so she sent me this tiny Mrs. Fields Peppermint Bark. It was just enough and was so delicious! Oh! and because she knows I like to sew and make fabric crafts, she sent those SWEET pink sewing accessories: a pin cushion, a measuring tape, and those gorgeous pins! Only someone who lives to sew could appreciate getting pins as a gift!

That leaves me to assume that this last item is the white elephant gift: A Mr. Coffee Mug Warmer Plate. Electric hotplate but mug size:

Fabgrandpa’s first words on seeing this: “You are going to re-gift that aren’t you?” We’ll see.

Thanks, Jessica! I love it all, especially that little tree. Easy to put up, easy to take down. And please forgive me for calling you Jennifer on the Christmas card I sent you.

    Cute ornament! I’m putting up our little fake tree tomorrow We flatten one side and attach it to the cupboard door over the couch in the RV. Started that when we had a cat but realized it doesn’t take up any room that way.
