Comment: Thank you for the card and extras. Chai tea is one of my favorites.

Comment: Thanks for the lovely postcard, Dale! We made our costumes growing up too, they were always so fun! My favorite candy is probably tootsie rolls, but my favorite trick or treating snack to get are the honey popcorn balls. They're messy but really good!

Comment: Say hi to Rémy from Lucky and I ! People often ask me, blue tea is an intermediate between black tea and green tea (coming from Fujian province apparently) and the leaves have undergone a short oxidation which make the water (of the tea) look blue ! The ones I buy also have blue flowers in them (from the brand "Mariage Frères") Thank you so much for this beautiful postcard ! Have a wonderful day !

 

Comment: Thank you Dale for the adorable postcard. I love it!!! Many wishes for a wonderful Halloween. I am going to see where Centreville, VA. My dream retirement is to move some place close the the Appalachians. I love looking up towns and seeing where everyone is from. Thank you again!

Comment: Thank you for the beautiful card and the delicious teas. I can't wait to decorate my house for Christmas. Thanks again

Comment: Thank you so much for the great stickers! FYI, the envelope came with $4.10 postage due. I'm assuming because the envelope was slightly thick with how the stickers were packed. Just something to keep in mind for next time! I know it has happened to me randomly with certain envelopes. I'm guessing they wanted you to mail it as a large envelope or package based on thickness. Edit: I received reimbursement from Dale for the postage due, which I did not ask for or expect, but it's definitely appreciated! Thank you so much :)

Comment: Tks for the card and extras. I grew up in the syracuse. NY area and lived in surrounding areas. Last i lived in fair haven NY. I could walk to the road and saw lake ontario just down the road. I do miss the seasons and the beautiful leaves in fall. I'm not a summer person either.

Comment: Hi Dale! What a pleasure it is to have you as my partner again. <3 It must have been fate that has brought us together again. LOL Hopefully next time it will be you on the receiving end. My classes are going good, thanks for asking. I just had my midterms and they went well, so I'm looking forward to the summer!!! I'm in community college right now so I live at home with my mom. I'm trying to knock out all of my gen. ed. stuff and then transfer, so I study voice with a private teacher. I'm not rushing anything, because I'd like to be stable in my technique before transferring. I plan on staying about two more years, but I'm not sure yet. So cool how you play in a symphony orchestra. I looked you guys up and watched the overture for Barber of Seville. You guys are great! Did you just do the overture to WSS or the whole musical? Challenging music, but it's so beautiful. Bernstein was an absolute genius!!! What else are you working on? I'm not currently working on any operas, but there are a couple of arias I'm working on at the moment. "Prendi per me sei libero" from "L'elsir d'amore" by Donizetti and "Donde lieta usci" from La Boheme. I'm sure you know who wrote that ;-) I keep my voice "in-shape" by singing everyday, usually, but not over doing it. Even if I don't work on any of the music I'm studying, I always find some time in the day to fit in some vocalizing or exercises. I haven't had any recent meetups with my snail mail society; not since January, and we probably won't be having any soon with all of this corona virus stuff going on. Maybe in the summer? I'm staying hopeful! Anyways, sorry for the essay LOL and thanks for the lovely message. I can't wait for the next time we're paired up again. <3 -Virginia

Comment: Thank you so much for the lovely card and goodies <3 I do not like corned beef either, but ill smash some carrots and potatoes haha! Happy st. pats.

Comment: Thank you for the fun swap! It was nice getting to know a little about you. Hope your St. Patty's Day is full of fun and lots of good luck! :)

Comment: Thanks for the great postcard! It was a delight hearing from you. I love the card you sent, your personal message and the great Mickey Mouse stamp. It made my day! Sounds like we have some things in common. And it was great reading about how you got your name.I hope we'll meet again in another swap :)

Comment: Hi Dale! Thanks so much for the super cute postcard and the very thoughtful message. The act of you taking the time to really read my entire profile really made my day. :-) I think it's so great you play the violin! My mother is a violinist. Yes, being in a snail mail society is very fun. It's usually every other month that we meet up for about two hours, write letters, make mail art, and chat. I love it. You should definitely look into signing up for Postcrossing! It's a very cool concept and I've met a lot of lovely people there. LOL Diamond painting is, in a way, simialr to cross-stitch, but with plastic beads or "diamonds". You place these sparkly "diamonds" onto the pattern printed on a canvas and it creates a very sparkly picture! It's a very tedious process, but the results can be really beautiful. I saw the Downton Abbey movie in theaters several months ago. How did you like it? I thought it was great. Your grandma only lives about 2 hours from me- how funny is that?? What a small world! Thanks again for the great postcard! All the best, Virginia <3

Comment: Oh my goodness! Thank you so very much for the adorable notecards and tea! The little kitty cat notecard is too cute! These are all new ones for me so I am very excited! I hope you enjoy this swap, we do it every month! Take care 😊
