Comment: Hello Merica,
Thank you for the two recipes you sent me for the "E and F Recipe" Swap. Both sound interesting and ones I would like to try. So, they will go on my lists of recipes I want to try during 2008. Your recipe cards will have a place in my A-Z recipe collection and will proudly be put into my special A-Z Recipe Book once I begin working on that down the road. I look forward to future swaps together, both here and out in the bigger Swap-bot world. Until we meet again, Happy Swapping! I hope that you had a wonderful Holiday Season and that your 2008 is filled with all the best.

P.S. Sorry I am so slow in rating this swap, but I was gone for 6weeks and returned right before Christmas. Before I knew it, it was 2008. Please know that I received your recipe.
Comment: Wow! I was SOO excited about this swap and you made it even better by sending early! Thank you a million times for this fabulous box of lavender treats! And you read my mind sending so much soap - you have no idea how important this is to me!! I only use natural soaps due to sensitive skin and was praying I'd get lots of it! ^_^ I love the body spray and tea too - this was a star package! Dozens of hearts for this - not just one!
Comment: Thank you for the crossword puzzle book and small skein of yarn. The package met swap requirements (which were rather vague), but I was disappointed to receive such a skimpy package in a swap for 25+ hearts. Definitely did not meet my expectations.
Response: The yarn was a high-end skein of bamboo yarn. There were few clues in this person's profile so I went with what was there--knitting and crosswords. The requirements were small but thoughtful.
Comment: I recieved your Teas today, Can't wait to try them,, It is suppose to rain tonight,, so This will be a perfect night to relax with a nice cup of tea.
Thank you for the swap.
Comment: thanks so much for everything. I really enjoyed it. I love to cook and I especially love to bake. Funfetti is awesome, and I loved the silicone liner thingies. So cute.
Comment: Hello Merica,
I almost missed your crock pot recipe as it got stuck to your dessert and I didn't catch it at first when I opened your package. YUMMY!!!!! Boy, do both recipes sound just great. I am a great lover of well-made desserts. So, I know I will be trying the Vanilla Cream Pie. Thank you for each recipe card unique and special. I appreciate the variation in color of text, the use of pictures to match the recipe, and embellishments that just added that extra pizazz to each recipe and will be wonderful addition to my A-Z recipe collection. I know by the end of this swap we will know each other pretty well as our names will be crossing paths often. I look forward to getting to know you better and collecting some wonderful recipes from your kitchen. Until our next meeting--may you experience many positive and enjoyable swaps.

Comment: Both recipes look delicious! Thanks for sending them out so promptly - you are definitely on top of it! :) I'm hosting a little get together next week and I think I'll use both of your recipes. Thanks so much!

Comment: Thanks for everything you sent! I love it all! Unfortunately the Junior Mints were squashed to a pulp and they are my fave! *cries* We don't get them in Australia. But 2 thumbs up for the whole boxful! :)
Oh yeah thanks for the Nestle socks and Tootsie Roll pens. I wonder what a Tootsie Roll tastes like?....
Comment: Hello Merica,
Thank you so much for the beverage page you sent to me for the "B is for Beverage Recipe" Swap. The margarita sounds wonderful and will be one I will try. Your recipe page will be very helpful in starting my "B" section of beverages in my A to Z Recipe Collection. Until we meet again on the "Swap-bot Super Highway" continued successful and fun-filled swaps.
