i joined a swap called "just a kid"
and the idea was to send fun stuff,
toys, candy, etc
plus stuff the other person was interested in...
i received mine yesterday
from the brilliant mary ann
at follow your bliss

here is a shot of the pretty stamps
that were decorating the package,
and below, the cool set of vintage golden books
which i adore
and have been able to put to immediate use
:)

below is some of mary ann's art which is rich
and gorgeous and my pathetic photography does not
capture the way it truly should...

mmmmm...
the candy.......
i am now well addicted to jelly bellys...
heehee

and the toys!
teehee...
games and bubbles and jelly-like yoyos
and slinkys and a car shaped deck of cards...
so much fun!

i only hope that mary ann will be as happy with what
comes in her mailbox, as i was with what came in mine!
so much fun!
