Thank you Claire

I received the sweetest parcel from Claire in today's mail ....

A most gorgeous frog fob !!!

A great fridge magnet!

A beautiful tiny kit I will take with me over the weekend.

A sooooo cute pair of socks !!!  Definitely wearing those this weekend!

Finally but by no means least a gorgeous book on Hardangar - definitely some projects in there I want to do as soon as I finish Mariann's teaching piece :)

What! No food? No lamb or bunnies?

Frogs legs? A bit of iron in the diet?

Jim Westlake said...

Never felt the need to try frogs legs or snails come to that. The French can keep e'em thank you.

Melissa Hicks said...

Gotta agree with you there. Not to keen on eating something that is universally acclaimed as eating snot ....

Jim Westlake said...

The mind boggles.

Rosanne Derrett said...

Ah now, cooked snails are like eating gristle, frogs legs are too little to provide a decent amount of meat but eating snot - well that is raw oysters. In Holland, the colloquial translation is 'snot in a shell'. Accurate description having eaten raw oysters!

Melissa Hicks said...

Another so-called foodstuff I will not eat :)

Jim Westlake said...

Me either.

Claire EJ said...

Tried Oysters, waste of time...little flavour, disgusting texture, why bother.
Frog legs are supposed to taste like chicken. May as well eat chicken.

Glad the purple package [tm] arrived [grins].

The socks and the kit have already been packed to take to the airport tomorrow morning!

Hilary Syddall said...

Love the socks! and everything else looks fun as well :-)

Melissa Hicks said...

The link leads to a close up pic of the fob too .....

Mariann Mäder said...

Oh, give me frog legs any day!!! We used to devour heaps of them as kids - definitely not chicken. The taste and consistency may be similar, but it's much finer, softer and if I can choose: frog legs it is!

.Great pressies and much along the same kind of lines as mine will be

Melissa Hicks said...
