Lucky Me!

(Warning to the boys: This blog entry contains more information on breasts and vaginas than you care to know.)

I've been blessed with an abundance of gifts and treasures lately! I've won 3 blog giveaways, and my first time winning a giveaway to boot! Also, My Ya-Ya Kelly gifted me my first copy of The Secret. And let us not forget the act of random yarness from Sea Witch. These treats couldn't have come at a better time since I've been suffering from a bout of melancholy and madness. I stopped breastfeeding Angelus 2 months ago and I think my hormones are just catching up as my milk supply drys, that's the reigning theory anyway.

On to the good stuff, here is a peak at the lovelys..

Kelly writes the most whismy book inscriptions, I admire that. My handwriting is that of a serial killer and I tend to keep it simple. Kelly pours her vivacious heart out in large beautiful scrolls and I treasure every book she's given me and Angelus because of it.


I should have taken photos of the all the packages inside the tote I won from Spirit Phoenix but I opened the chocolate parcel first, ate it whole and went into a chocolate coma. There is a project I'm working on involving a mysterious little black book that was included among the parcels, more on that later.


Three clock face overlays, reminders not to be late for a very important date, are on the way to me from Forget Me Not Dreams via the Mad About Alice Party at The French Cupboard


Last, but far from least, these feminine menstrual pads from hagrag.com via Go out beneath the naked night are ADORABLE. My current ones are all so plain and one colored, now see what I have to look forward too!
