Dear SSFE SISTAH FRIEND,
I received your lovely package Thursday evening. Thank you for your thoughtful letter and all the goodies you sent to me.
Here's what I got:- A sweet letter from my Secret Sistah Friend Evelyn inside the Knit On! Olive Green card from Berhane Studio
- A lovely handmade Evelyn original Dupioni Silk satchet bag.
- A cute pink Washington, DC t-shirt.
- 4 skeins of Knit Picks Shadow 100% Merino Wool in Sunset.
- The Sweet Mary Jane Cardigan pattern by Celeste Culpepper for KnitPicks
- Knitting Heaven and Earth by Susan Gordon Lydon
- Burt's Bees Almond Milk Beeswax Hand Creme
- Back 2 Basics Naturals Lipcare Balm in Ylang Ylang and Lavender
- Surround Your Friends! Magnet Frames and Board
- A package of cute grape Do-Jiggies card embellishments
I must say that after reading Evelyn's blog, I have so much respect for her and the journey she is enduring right now. I know just a little bit how hard it is to be single parent from my adventrures in Auntiehood, so I know transistioning from a marriage, moving out on your own with 3 little girls can not and is not easy and I'm so glad to see that she is leaning on God, her family and friends for strength. I look forward to getting to know her much better and gleaning some of her wisdom and insight as another Black woman in today's world.
Wow you hit the lotto girl from your not so secret pal. Either way I'm glad you received such a nice gift. Good taste that Evelyn has.

Necia,
ReplyDeleteEvelyn sent both packages at once, so she went ahead and did the big reveal. I, also, had to reveal myself to my Secret Sistah Friend due to customs, so she knows who I am, too. :)
