Puffin, Guinifer’s owl just delivered the most wonderful package to me today. Actually he came being held by a really nice Muggle postal worker who noticed him on her route struggling with the heavy package. It turns out that she is a squib and loves owls as well as dogs. So Maylee got some love from her as well and we all know labs love their attention! Guinifer I will send Puffin back your way after he is rested, maybe if he is up to it he can fly halfway with my owl, Nate who will be bringing Stuart his package. Here’s a picture of Puffin, isn’t he the cutest?
Well onto the goodies and bloody hell did that sweet little Hufflepuff Guinifer spoil me rotten! She sent me some royal bamboo, yummy sheepless Slytherin Sock yarn from Whimzy Pinzy Creations and BMFA Luscious Silk!!! I can’t help but pet the yarns and think “precious, my precious” Lol. She also put in an awesome Soft Touch crochet hook in 4.5mm (US G) and two Knitpicks Harmony circs in 2.25mm (US 1)! Also Charlotte Church’s Little Box of Socks, burt’s bees lip balm (a perfect essential) some tasty Ginger Peach black Tea from Republic of Tea (it’s the black tea take on my favourite green tea!), yummy Boom Choco boom bars, a bag of orangic trail mix (get this it’s called Bear Naked!!), delcious Spicy Ginger Cookies (my favourite!!!) and a green tea bar (which is not gone, I couldn’t wait). Last but not least she knit me a beautiful red bag and a beautiful black bow and attached to it is a dragon charm! Thank you so much Guinifer LeFleur and I nominate you for the most glorious package ever!
Ps: I can’t believe Maylee slept through my squeals of excitment and delight when I opened up my package. Here’s a picture of her taking her nap while I was talking pictures of my package. Normally she looks at me strangely wonderfing what all the fuss is and why silly mommy is petting yarn not her. I wonder if she play with my yarn like a cat would because she is jealous that I pet it like I pet her…










That looks like a fantastic passage! I love the sheen of the yarn–I bet it’s even nicer in person.
Dorian definitely steals yarn when I’m knitting instead of petting.
