Sol thank you so much- I am even saving the wrappers from everything because it is all SO super cool.
To see my swap partner and what I sent check out Amy at Switz-Art
Thank You! Can't wait for the next Swap!

I'm glad you had a nice swap! :) I also have the first one on my own blog, I thought we could do two things at once- the swap and the journal thing (which we were writing about when you posted about 1000journals action)
What do you think?will you join?:)
take care

What a neat thing to do, and receive. Nutella would be the only thing I need.......love the stuff! I'm so curious how something that tastes like soap could be good.

What a great swap and such an interesting fun person. I love swaps. They are too much fun. The chocolate covered strawberries look so good or is it nutella covered. anyway, it looks good.
