What a Treat!

I've been rushing around ferrying both my mum and Finley to appointments and doing post office trips today so was nice to get home this afternoon. What was even more exciting was my neighbour knocking at my door as soon as I got through the door with a package for me!

EEEEE! I couldn't wait to see what was inside and I wasn't disappointed:

The lovely and very talented Liz from Shortbread and ginger sent me a fabulous lot of goodies!!

 First opened was this yummy Shortbread with Ginger! Its very very tasty and was opened not long after the photos were taken. It made me smile too :o)

Next opened was this fun coaster - very appropriate for me Liz, I definitely chatter incessantly although my hubby is worse than I am so you can imagine the car journeys ;o)

Lovely book for Finley - he is currently being trained into loving books as much as I do with a night time story every night without fail.  This will be well enjoyed by both of us.

And the Pièce de résistance.....
Look at this fabulous Tea Cosy!!! I've been wanting a knitted cosy for a long time and eyeing them up on Liz's blog and so she made me one :o)  I love it and its blighty colours and check out the cute tag:

I cant wait to impress my guests with this beauty for the Royal Wedding day.  Thanks so much Liz, as you can see I'm over the moon and you really made my day :o)

    that tea cosy is absolutely lovely, you are such a lucky duck Scarlett. Liz has done such a wonderful job...cheery, slightly kitsch (in the nicest way) and patriotic too. Wow!
