...***Sue*** at Inner Dorothy! I was so excited to be choosing things for Sue! She had mentioned on her blog that she LOVED Starbucks and chocolate marshmallow candies, so I knew those would feature heavily. Sue also mentioned that her chosen holiday was Christmas, so I knew I could find lots of good Christmas-y things to fill her gift box with.
Her main gift, I decided, would be a homemade item. I didn't really know if Sue was a craft-lover like Andrea and I, so I punted. Everyone has Christmas pictures, right? I figured that I could make a small scrapbook that Sue could use to record details about this Christmas. I left all the pages blank, thinking that Sue could put in her own journalling to make the scrapbook all about her and her loved ones. Here's a picture of me with the open scrapbook....
I also added some Christmas-smelling candles, a couple of felt ornaments, a package of foot-pampering soak tablets, and some warm fuzzy Santa socks. I then packed up the box to mail.... and away it went to Canada!
Sue, I hope you had as much fun opening and enjoying your present as I did making and sending it. Part of the joy of the holidays for me is sharing my blessings, and I was fortunate enough to run into such a great group of blog friends, and even more fortunate to have been matched up with such a genuinely wonderful person. I wish you all the best, and all the love of the season.

How wonderful!!!
I'm so glad you had fun putting my gift together. Everything is just so perfect!! Thanks again KLee. You're the best!
Wait, it's you! But you're so lovely, KLee, with such a kind face! Why in heaven's name would people be unkind about your appearance??? When I finally get my new big clunky shoes, can I use them to kick mean people for you?
P.S. Your blog feed has been wonky on me -- my feedreader has been telling me that you haven't updated for ages. But here are all these posts! I missed your delurking week! I'm distraught! My apologies!
