Cold Hands Warm Hearts

This year, I participated in the Cold Hands Warm Hearts mitten swap hosted by much love, illy and Sandy a la Mode.  I had never been part of a gift swap before, so I had no clue what to expect, but it was a lot of fun!  My swap partner was Polly over at this enchanted Pixie.  I was so excited when I got her package!  It was wrapped up in brown paper and I immediately started singing "...brown paper packages tied up with strings..." ("My Favorite Things" from "The Sound of Music") except it wasn't tied with string, just packaging tape.  LOL  Anyways, Polly sent me...

 cappuccino...

 

and mittens....

aren't they just darling?  I just LOVE them!  Just what I was hoping for, and they have the cutest little velvet ribbon bows ever!

Yes, I'm wearing 3/4 sleeves....it was 66 degrees Fahrenheit when I took the photos yesterday.  66?  On December 15?  Seriously???  And we haven't had any snow yet...  :(

Happiness is...comfy mittens, a warm cup of cappuccino, and a beautiful day.  Perfect.

Just HAD to include a goofy photo.  :D

There was also a card....and some British chocolate in the package, but I couldn't take a picture of it.  Why?  Let me tell you a secret....*I ate it already.*  Hey!  Don't look at me like that!  I really did share...one piece....but that's still sharing, right?  And I gave my sister the really cool stamp from the UK that was on the package!  I'm not a pig, really!

Thanks so much, Polly!  It was wonderful!  And thanks to Sandy and Ilene for hosting the CWHW swap!  I look forward to doing it again next year.
