My friend Wendi over at Because Wendi Said So hosted a Favorite Things swap last month. It's my first one and I must admit, it was quite fun. I love receiving gifts. What girl doesn't?
My partner was a great girl - Erica from Butterfly Kisses. If you don't already know her, go over & check out her cute blog. She's a busy mom who always keeps her focus on where it needs to be.
Now, let's get to the goodies.
Just look at all of that wonderful stuff.We have chocolates, a cd, a Nicholas Sparks book, scrapbooking goodies, soaps,
& cute little post its.
Erica put together a great package & I want to send her oodles of "thank you's!"
Can you see anything different in this picture from the one above? (look carefully)
I just had to try it.....it was delicious. Thanks again Erica!!
Thanks for hosting Wendi - it was fun.

Tell me about swap!!!
A swap is when you exchange little gifts with others in the blog community. This was my first & it was a lot of fun.
Usually someone hosts & gets everything together (Wendi, in this case). They match up partners, collect address info, etc. & sends out the relevant info to each partner. She set a date that everything had to be shipped by so everyone would get their stuff around the same time.
Sometimes they can have themes - hers was a Favorite Things Swap. I've also seen Fall themes, Christmas, cookies, aprons, lots of different ideas.
It's a great way to get to know other bloggers that you may not have stumbled across yet.
Hope this answers any questions.
Wow! I've never heard of blog swaps either. Great idea and a great box of goodies you got! Have fun with the scrapbook stuff and reading your book.
That looks like a TON of fun! I want to do one some day....love your stuff!
Wow, how fun and exciting! I love receiving goodies, especially yummies! LOL!
This is SO cool! I really want to do this next time! I am glad your package was delightful!
I thought I commented on this post already. Oops!
What a great swap partner you got!
I love a few of her favorite things...they are also a few of mine!
Thanks so much for participating!
