Thank You Hanson Pals!

As usual, our pals sent a perfect gift. We had just had Chinese take-out when Dan went to get the mail, complaining about the lack of fortune cookies in our bag - then poof! We opened our box to find a hidden treasure in Caroline's new bowl! I love the bowl and trainer chopsticks! I am very excited to use the new cookbook when we entertain, maybe I will make kid food kids like! (The last time I cooked dinner for some friends with kids, they brought their own Happy Meals! I have some learning to do!) I am also hoping Caroline will be able to learn to cook from her mom. My mom taught me how to throw a great themed party and make reservations for dinner and all holidays, but cooking...not so much!

Thank you all for your thoughtfulness!!

Dave and Di's Pals are so clever!

I am continually amazed at how my Pals take the month's theme and come up with such a clever twist.

February's themes was Kids Can Cook, and as Dave and I pulled the presents (there are always many; our pals are super generous) out of the box I was surprised to see PJs. But then I read the note from our pals. They suggest that we can cook in our jammies. Well, it's like you know us like old friends, because that is exactly something we'd do. We're real homebodies, and we love to spend the weekends in our jammies all day if we can. These are so cute; they're Tinkerbell PJs.

Check out the beautiful apron too, and a huggy-toy, and cooking tools, and a book for Mommy (which I already read! I couldn't help myself I raced through it last night! Excellent story!).

What a cute gift you put together pals. We love it, and we love you. Hope you're continuing in the swap!
