After a nice walk around the lake, taking in the brisk and windy air - I came home to find a brown package waiting at my front door.
So now, just as I need warming up, I get to drink my coffee from this beautiful mug Sara sent me through the CAC mug swap.
It is so comforting and charming this mug. I just love it. Thank you, Sara.
It also amazes me how just through reading another person's blog, you can get such a strong feel for what their personalities are like. This mug is so "me", and the thoughtfulness that went into choosing it makes me feel so happy and connected. I love what the CAC blog is all about. Melba, you did an awesome job creating it - and Jessie, you were an amazing guest host.

Oh, I am so glad that you like it!!! I just knew that mug was you when I saw it!

mmmm...that mug does look warm and comforting! looking at the mugs that people have sent, i think it's amazing the way a cup can become an expression of someone--both as the giver and the one receiving.
i'm glad you got something that you liked. i must admit, this was really cool to be a part of. :)
lots of love to you!

I am glad you like CaC! The swap has turned out great. I can't wait to see what the next one is. I don't even know myself! Tanaya is hosting and I didn't ask her so that I could be surprised too.
