The English Evil Wench !!!!!!

A parcel turned up in the mail yesterday and on the back of the envelope were the words "Sender: The Evil Wench".

Squeeeeee !!!!!!

A fabulous chart
- which looks so much better in the flesh than on the net - I don't think this will anywhere as washed out as the screen shots look, *two* blocks of organic dark chocolate and a gorgeous card full of beautiful sentiments !!

I know I'm a chocoholic, there's point denying the fact, but I will cherish the card and the sentiments therein long after the chocolate is but a memory and the chart is stitched!

Oh Wow Mel, That is fantastic. I have this chart on order for the shop and I suspect that one of the them will find the way into my ever growing personal stash. I love this one so if you say it looks better IRL then it must look pretty fantastic.

Evil Wench comment - so glad it is finally there! I was beginning to have colly-wobbles about it going walkies. I knew the chocolate would hit the right note, but I have been waiting for the UK Long Dog distributor to place his next order so I could get you this particular chart. I am so pleased Gothtigger has her bounce back!

Well, I really liked the chart on-screen, so if it looks even better in person, then it moves even further up the Must Acquire List!! Good job, Stitch Wench!!

The chocolates look great and I know how much you like them so dark! Well done, Evil Wench!

And I know how it feels if you sent something and have to wait for it to arrive - it's the less pleasing part. The SQUEE alone is worth the wait, I'm sure :-)

Sniff, sniff..that's so sweet.
BTW, she's not evil, she's lovely.

Paula Hubert said...

Lovely package - enjoy!

Rosanne Derrett said...

SHHHHHHHH! Claire, you've ruined my carefully crafted Evil Witch persona with one carefully placed word!

Claire EJ said...

PMSL.....Sorry love...but you are sweet:)

Melissa Hicks said...

Its OK Rosanne - I'll continue to tell people you are evil of you continue to tell people I'm a heartless bitch.

Oh hang-on, I really am a heartless bitch .... hmmm .... let me think on that further!

Karen R said...

As clearly evidenced by the hearts currently decorating this page :) Try again.

Great gift and love the chart. The chocolate looks good too or at least I expect it WAS. Well done Roseanne. Looks like I'll have to get my a..e in gear and put together the goodies I have been meaning to send for the past 3 weeks

Melissa Hicks said...

Its the disguise .....

Melissa Hicks said...

Surprisingly enough it hasn't been eaten yet. I know this brand and I'm saving it and eating the cheap crap Cadburys I already have here first :) :)

Twana Bentley said...

I'm drooling over your gift! The chart, not the chocolate. When are you going to start it?

Melissa Hicks said...

Depending upon decision by the private RR group it might be sent out as an RR next year.

Claire EJ said...

Eep!.....Only if I get to send a LD [grins]

Melissa Hicks said...

It will be the Year of the Long Dog for the RR group :) :)

Are you lot talking some secret language?

Should I roll up a trouser leg or something?

Claire EJ said...

No dear, it's stitching talk, just back away...

Rosanne Derrett said...

Now that does sound good! Love my Long Dogs (and I have a few stashed away and more on my lust list)

Lori M. said...

What a wonderful present Mel! That chart is fabulous!!

Jim Westlake said...

*Backing quietly out.*

Melissa Hicks said...

I wonder how Crabby and Jim would go if we took over TAP one night and talked about varieties of chocolate instead of beer?

Jim Westlake said...

You pack that in right now! You hear?

Jim Westlake said...

Melissa Hicks said...

PMSL !!!!!! LOL !!!!!!

Well that got a reaction:):) :) :) :)
