So what did I do today….I met a fellow blogger.
You all know her as Primitives by Olde Lady Morgan
http://primitivesbyoldeladymorgan.blogspot.com/
I offered to take some of her gals/guys and some wonderful Fall prims to sell them at the Lititz show and we met up today so I could get them.
We had a wonderful lunch, visit and an exchange of gifts.
Marie is just as sweet and fun as her blog and her products are fantastic and fun.
We met half way for each of us in Crystal Lake, Il.
We decided on Applebee’s but I got a call from her at about the time we were to meet saying the Applebee’s was no longer there and luck had it that I was in the same mall parking lot as her and I saw a Chili’s and said meet me there….and it was a great choice because the food was perfect.
So after chatting a bit we both exchanged gifts and then the talking never stopped. A great hour and a half and now I have a new wonderful blog friend!
Marie gave me an adorable Pumpkin with the cutest smile and in the bag was a beautiful tin candle sconce that hangs on a cupboard door and a battery candle (one with a timer!)
Could this Pumpkin be any more adorable?
THANK YOU SO MUCH MARIE…
Last week when I was visiting blogs I saw I won Carol from Buttermilk Creek Farm’s giveaway…am I a lucky gal or what…meeting blog friend and winning great things from another blog friend.
You can find her here: http://buttermilkcreekfarm.blogspot.com/
You must visit Carol’s blog if you haven’t already. She is one fantastic creator and I will honestly say she is way too modest about her work – CAROL….your work is wonderful. If anyone has received any of her work you would be able to attest to that too.
Her work is so meticulous – all details so perfect.
I received my package on Saturday and was soooo in love with it all…it’s time to be envious guys!
In the box was a set of 3 Gingerbread men – all decked out with Red checked Gingham and a bell.
And the aroma so yummy – you could almost taste them!
And…a bag of vintage Candy Canes – oh they are so sweet!
And then the ‘glory gift’ – a beautiful hand made Santa.
He’s sporting a pure wool coat and that is a real sheep’s wool beard.
Could I have had a better few days??? I think not!
Thanks so much Carol – I don’t want to put the Santa away ‘till Christmas.
Thanks for visiting and for all your wonderful comments.
And please, I hope some of you take advantage of my coupon or at least stop in to say hi…
Blessings
Karen

ReplyDeleteRobyn
I just can't believe you are coming to my hometown and I am so excited to meet you! I will definitely be looking for you and your stand. I know exactly where you will be. I grew up riding my bicycle on those streets and the very street you will be on. My little sister was married 2 1/2 years ago at the Linden Hall Chapel which will be all but right behind your stand. My dad is president of the Lititz Historical Foundation which is located at the Lititz Museum across the street from where you will be and he is also a member of the Lititz Rotary that is sponsoring the craft show. I can't wait to meet you and see all of your wares in person! (Do I sound excxited? I AM!)
ReplyDeleteKaren.so neat that you and Marie got to meet. L ove the pumpkin and the candle holder. And your giveaway win was prim perfect. Love it all especially the Santa.One never gets too old to love Santa. Good luck with your show. Sure wish I lived close enough to attend. Have a great week
ReplyDeleteAngela
Karen - what a lucky gal you are indeed to receive such goodies and also meet new friends.
ReplyDeleteBTW, can you tell me why when I receive your blog via my email the lines are run together? I notice this happens w/other blogs that are sent to me. Any suggestions as to why this happens? Makes it very difficult to read. Have a great day!
COUNTRYCATHY...
ReplyDeleteI want to thank you for such a nice comment...and as for the lines running together in an e-mail I'm not sure about that as I don't receive blog posts through and e-mail to know how to correct it.
Maybe someone reading this will have a suggestion.
Karen
Karen, sure wish I lived close enough to come to the Lititz Show. How great that you got to meet Marie & enjoy lunch with her - love the goodies she shared with you. And, WOW, what a wonderful give away you won! That Santa is awesome!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Sue

Karen: What fun to meet a fellow blogger! I have had the same experience recently but unfortunately they are not "Prim" bloggers. But i love them all anyway. Wish I could get to Lititz but that won't happen this year. you will have wonderful stuff and will probably sell out the first day! Good luck and enjoy it. And you can send me that Santa ASAP as I really love it! LOL You are so lucky. Take good care of yourself. {{HUGS}} Joy
