Lmao, I have good intentions, but I think not, My attic I have never been in, and I should use it for storage since it is finished, I had them out to blow insulation in the fall, and they said you know you have bunch of boxes up here right, Seems the previous owner left me an attic full of stuff... ( They were supposed to move it all when the left)

 

[Meriweather]

Ohhh...now that is an idea. Put the stuff we don't want in the attic when we move.
I want to leave things in the basement because I have no idea how to get them out Can't remember how we got them down there.

Any arrivals today?

 

[Jenna45]

My mail has not come yet.

Yes, my parents have the same situation, and my mom wants a new bedroom set but she can't figure out how they ever got it up to the master in the first place so she does not know how they will get it down

[Meriweather]

It is amazing.
We have a conference table in the basement. No idea how it got down there....and I don't want to figure out how to get it up.

We should have arrivals today.....unless the PO is acting up again

We did I received my exchange from flrose today

I got The best of Florida Cookbook
Recipe Cards ( neat ones some big and some small)
A magnetic shopping list
A handy fridge magnet that has kitchen measurments on it ( I needed this)
and some recipe cards

Oh and I almost forgot a Walt Disney World Swan Pen

Thanks! It is a great package , I am about to flip through while I am waiting for my big date

A confrence table, I am going to question how you got that down there myself
When I moved here I had a hotel thing ( the long dresser, that holds the TV and everything on it) I can't think of the name right now in my garage, I told the Condo people I have know way to move this and I don't want it. ( I shared a garage and my previous neighbor just pushed it over when he moved), the manitance guys said just leave it and if we can't find a home for it we will cut it up and dump it. I was never more happier than to hear that

Jen- so glad you received your package and I'm glad you are enjoyed it.
So, how was the big date?

See, I would love to go picking through that! I think I read too many Nancy Drew books when I was young...I'm still convinced I'll find a treasure hidden somewhere!

 

[Meriweather]

Hope we hear of some arrivals today

 

[pennst8r]

No package today. I've got somethings ordered that haven't come yet, either....must be slow at the PO here.

I didn't have a package when I got home last night however there was a note from the PO saying I need to come pick up a package since it was too big for the box and the dog was on the porch.

 

[clhcpaca]

I'm checking in. I received my package on Saturday.

It included the following Arizona goodies:

prickly pear cactus taffy (flavor was a bit odd, plus it was not at all sweet)...but I ate it all

sugar keeper with a quail design

Cactus salsa

2 potholder and a matching kitchen towel with peppers in frying pans

Salsa Lovers Cook Book

plus a citrus peeler and adjustable measuring cup

Thanks, Jessica for everything. Have you ever eaten any of that taffy???

Cindy

Thanks, Jessica for everything. Have you ever eaten any of that taffy???

Cindy

You're quite welcome! Yes, I have tried the taffy. That same company makes a cinnamon prickly pear taffy that I personally like better, but the cinnamon flavor is very strong, so I don't like to send that one when I don't know people's tastes! You can also get Prickly Pear syrup which is great on pancakes!

When you live in the desert, you learn about all sorts of things you can do with cactus! Nancy will figure that out soon!

So, that is why it wasn't delivered

Thank you very much.

[pennst8r]

Mine just arrived!

Thanks, Cindy! She sent me The Garlic Lovers' Cookbook from the Gilroy Garlic Festival Association. (the garlic capital of the world!)

Did you smell the garlic coming off me all the way in CA or just guess that I'd love it?? (I'm 1/2 Italian so I cook with lots of garlic! ) She sent along some granulated garlic, too.

Can't wait to try something....I"m bringing it along to DSs dr appt so I can start reading.
