Valentine’s Day Swap!

I posted some time ago that I’d be participating in the First Milk Valentine Swap, and despite all of the weather-related mail woes, my valentine made it to my partner out east, and today, I got a fantastic little care package from Jenna at Spirographs and Flying Fish. Just look at all this fun stuff!

I don’t know how she could have known of my love for all things paper and ephemeral, but now she does. And now you all know that I had the calligraphy book upside down when I took this picture of it (flipped it for the sake of trying to save some face).

And tea? I have a big drawer full of hot teas, and am especially excited about these, as I’ve never tried either of them!

And how sweet is this little trinket?

Now, at this point, the battery in my camera died, so I’m prevented from sharing with you the cuteness of that card in detail or the wonders of that chocolate bar. That chocolate bar was probably the biggest surprise; those that know my chocolate preferences know that I’m not much of one for milk chocolate (barf), but I had to try this Bubble Chocolate. I mean c’mon! Bubbles wrapped in chocolate?

To my great surprise, it was delicious! I really could have eaten a whole bar of it (or two, or three…). The ingredient list was very short, and it tastes like they used a pretty high-quality chocolate, and I could go on and on, but what you should do is find someplace where you can buy it and try some for yourself. I’m going out to track down the dark chocolate tomorrow (and maybe pick up another milk chocolate).
