For several years I was in a Santa Sack Swap which was organised on line. There are blogs which I first read while getting ready for a swap and which I still read today. The participants were all crafters, usually sewers, and I got some lovely hand made things.
One year I was chatting to a friend and she thought it a lovely idea so I now have a swap with her. The rules are that things must be mostly home made, but re-gifting and used things are OK with the odd low-cost bought item (OK, I mean chocolate!) being allowed as well. We have a stocking and a sack which we swap each year. There is a distinct possibility that C may read this so no piccies!
Today's news about the posh gents is confusing me. Another one has arrived and they're having a meeting around a bar of chocolate while the animals are meeting at one end of a carrot. Are these presents they are planning for someone? It all seems a bit odd to me. I hope time will tell.
Please pray for all our Jewish friends here in Australia and all over the world, I'm in a state of shock and sadness that this could happen in my wonderful country. From Shirley.
ReplyDeleteI think the world is shocked that could happen in your wonderful country. I'll be praying.
