Scrappy friends are just the best

Don't you agree?


Look what arrived in the post for me on Friday - totally out of the blue and unexpected!
My very sweet LOAD and Whimsical Musings friend, Lynette, sent me this rather sweet care package filled to the brim with Cadbury's Easter eggs because she knows it's my absolute favourite but I can't get it here in Germany  :-(


Just how thoughtful is that?

There was a beautiful painted box filled with the cutest little Easter nest complete with a selection of eggs - perfect for display.

And a gift bag overflowing with yet more Cadbury's and as a nod to her family's involvement with the confectionary competitor Mars, a PINK M&M box.

Then there was a gorgeous sheet of map paper that had reminded Lynette of me and of course I adore that - you know that I have a thing for maps! And it's called Notting Hill and has touches of pink so it's me all over! And if that wasn't enough, my LOAD and Whimsical Musings friend, Leslie, had sent a few items for me too - look at all those stunning doilies and the Polaroid frames! How gorgeous!

Even though Easter is pretty much over, the nest is so pretty that I'm thinking another week of pretty decorations is called for! Of course, I can't vouch for how long the chocolate will survive! ;-)

So a BIG thank you to my super sweet, thoughtful friends who managed to bring a huge smile to my face on a day when I was ever so slightly (under-exaggerating here!) stressed out!
