My Secret Sister birthday gift arrived today, well at least, Ray found the box in our back yard where it had ended up after being picked up and blown around by today's huge winds.
It appears to have gone on another trip as well as it had an Auspost "Return To Sender" sticker on it and when I checked further both my address and the return address had the wrong street number. DOH!!!!
Joy oh Joy, I guess I really WAS meant to get it, as it DID find its way here and the wind DIDN'T blow it into the river. LOL!!!!
I am thrilled to pieces with the lovely set of beautifully embroidered, pussycat coasters with roses fabric on the reverse.
And inside the pretty little hand made pyramid was my all time favourite Turkish Delight Chocolate, along with a Flake (do you think there's a hidden message there? LOL!!!) and a pretty lavender handkerchief with an embroidered corner.
Thank you so much SS, methinks you must know me very well. hugs n love, Meg

Beautiful gifts Meg. I too love Turkish delight and actually ate one on the way to your place yesterday, and no it wasn't me who made the gifts. I love the cat coasters too, well done SS. Love Chris
P.S. I don't think you're a Flake at all really! NOT! he he he!

Oh Meg this is wonderful to see your gift arrived safely after all. You certainly are very special. You were lucky I didn't find that Turkish delight before you did, they also are one of my favourites, you know I have many favourites when it comes to chocolates...Love ya Darl'n and keep well ok.

Sure am! But still waiting on the one from my Grands, seems like Auspost is having some major delivery issues lately.

A lovely gift! Aren't you lucky it ended up in your back yard after its meandering.

Sure am Martine, especially considering our back yard opens onto the river and no fencing either. :-)))

OH, for anyone who may be wondering, how come, why, we thought she left??????
I had made a commitment to the Secret Sister birthday gift swap and I told Sue I would honour that commitment, so nobody missed out, even though I would no longer be participating here at Cute.
I am a person of integrity so my Commitment has been honoured.
I am still, and always will be, available to those special Cuties who have been my dearest friends, they know where to find me if they need me.
Hugs n roses, Meganne

What wonderful gifts! We have a saying here, "look what the cats drug in." It's when someone unexpected shows up. In your case, it's, "look what drug in the cats". Nice find, Ray!
