Thank you Elizabeth!

The news from Victoria, Australia is horrific, so many fires and so many lives! To hear that arson is the probable cause only adds to the horror, that someone could do that deliberately! My prayers go out to all affected by the tragedy. For once the recession/global credit crunch can take a back seat.

I woke with a heavy heart today and decided to take Penny for a walk, no matter how cold and wet the weather, just to get some air and sort out my thoughts. We didn't stay out for long though, it is very, very cold again.

We just beat the postman and guess what, he had a parcel for us, from Elizabeth! I had won the Cranks recipe book in her giveaway! Thank you so much, it is a lovely book and I have already seen a few recipes I can't wait to try out. I don't have to feel guilty about making them either as they seem quite healthy! I will try them out on my friends at the ms centre.



The card is lovely Elizabeth and an extra surprise, one of your super knitted dishcloths!
It was beautifully wrapped and I'm saving the beautiful ribbon in my scrapbooking draw!



Thank you Elizabeth for cheering me up!

Glad to hear the parcel arrived safely, and that you liked the book. Hope you're nowhere near the flooding on the Rivers Chelmer and Can - it looked quite nasty on the news.

It does look bad doesn't it? We are a safe distance from the flooding thank goodness! The problem is the ground is already very waterlogged from all the snow and now the heavy rainfall has nowhere to go. I do feel for all those who are having to sandbag their homes and bail out water.
