The birthday goodies keep coming!
A package came today from Tammy. (I'd just like to point out that Becky sent me a normal sized letter from Wollongong (45 minutes drive away) last Thursday, May 25. It arrived yesterday, 6 days later. Tammy sent me a parcel from Oregon on Friday May 26, it was opened and inspected by Quarantine, and it arrived here today, 6 days later. Maybe Australia Post is having some issues!)
The package smelled heavenly, and that's probably what made the quarantine people take notice ;)

Tammy had warned me that she wanted me to email her before I opened it, so I did, but the quarantine people had other ideas.

But I was good, and waited until I'd heard from Tammy. Look at all the lovely items inside!

Chocolate! Sock yarn! Stitch n Bitch design notebook, Threads magazine, hand lotion and tea. Not as much tea as Tammy sent, because apparently some of the ingrdients in the other tea are prohibited. Or maybe the quarantine folk were just short of tea this week ;)
Thank you, Tammy, it's all lovely.
And here is a picture of my beautiful candle sconce all lit up last night.
