Swap In:

Today, I slept in for a long time. It’s my first day off in ages, and it’s all about treating myself. I knit for a little bit and caught up on Jon Stewart. Then we went to a friend’s birthday party. And then I finally opened my Project: COLORSWAP box from Lynne.

I opened the box and was greeted with a wealth of orange and yellow packaging:

Digging through it all, I found treats of all sizes:

In the back left, you see an orange tote bag with green and yellow circles and big round wooden handles. Continuing clockwise, there’s a lovely orange basket with a big yellow flower, holding some Platter’s Orange Chocolate Sponge candies (yum!). There’s a length of wired floral ribbon right behind a box of yellow and orange painted eggs (decor, not edible). Some orange nail polish reminding me that I need to get the season’s first pedicure. The book “Compassionate Knitting” which contains a pattern for an adorable astral-themed baby romper. Then a pair of bright little ankle socks and a handful of old-fashioned candy sticks.

Thank you so much Lynne for all my goodies and surprises. And for organizing this whole thing.

Now I just have to decide what to do next with my day. Pedicure or knit…..

    This looks so beautiful; what a nice package to receive. Hope you had a nice restful day…sounds like one was overdue. Easy to forget to take a break for ourselves, isn’t it?
    Cheers and BFN :)

    Ah! I hope you loved it…It’s really challanging to come up with the yellow and orange thing for those of us that don’t have it on our list of best colors! Hence, the tote bag with lots of other colors, too, to make it not so orange! I was crazy about your box…You have helped to make Project:Colorswap a success! And as for your quandry? I’d say, knit while you have your pedicure.
