Per the Instructions over there on that thread. The deadline to sign up was Nov 23rd, so sign-ups are now closed. The hostess posted this in the thread yesterday. I am working hard on the address list, and will email once completed. ( yes, I am a bit behind this year, life got in the way ) We have plenty of time...I promise to have it to you no later than Dec 1st. hth. Sue...rbb

Marian You did a FANTASTIC job & I'm sure all involved will say the same! :) I'm glad you'll be able to spend some time with the family now & get a little rest! You definitely deserve it! You've been great throughout this Secret Santa exchange & I believe EVERYONE is pretty happy about the whole thing! My hats off to you! Cheers! (as I toast my vodka & orange juice to you!) Wishing you the BEST!! Mike

I see that this swap is over, but I have yet to find any fellow epiphyllum lovers on this site. So I thought this would be a good place to possible get in contact with someone who wants to trade. I have night blooming cereus, epiphyllum "disocactus akermanii", Easter cactus with red blooms, ad an epiphyllum with unknown color blooms (it's either orange or fuschia) I also have curly spider plant babies, curly lipstick plant, jade, and a couple different aloes.

Oh my goodness girl, are you crazy? I was only the hostess, not your swap partner. WHAT A BOX!!!!!!!!!!!! Boy oh boy, did you jam pack this box and spoil me rotten! I received gold candy coins; an assortment of cocoa mixes; jelly belly Christmas mix; chocolate nut fudge; some mini candy canes and a Christmas pencil. There was also a package of pet greens - wheat seed and a dearly depotted (for the serial plant killer), this is too cool, I have never seen anything like this at all. Okay, this should have been enough, but theres more. A wall calendar; a set of Christmas tile coasters in a holder (these are excellent); a snowman candle and the cutest little bear that counts off the days until Christmas (there are 370 days until Christmas -- ARE YOU READY LOL); and the neatest candy stirrers another something I have never seen before; a magnetic santa notepad; two heresy chocolate bars and a set of candy cane lip gloss (which will feed my chapstick addiction). A wonderful keychain with a beautiful biblical verse on the reverse; a little mini game called "lot to love" (and its NOT a weight thang!); a charm bracelet; an issue of birds and blooms magazine; and the most magnificient smelling mason jar candle in the honeysuckle scent. I love it, its burning now - its smell is just so excellent. Im sitting upstairs and its lit sitting on the dining room table and the scent is just permeating the house. Honeysuckle takes me back to my youth and when I opened the jar, I had some fond, fond memories! I also appreciate the mini swiss army type knife that can go on a keychain. I had something very similar to this that broke off maybe not even a month ago and Im lost without it. This is GREAT!!!!! Wow Susann, you outdid yourself. The rules were "a little token to the host". You really put that over the top. This certainly qualifies as a swap box. I must say each and every one of my bloomin friends has been so kind, generous and giving to me as hostess. I feel so blessed and thank God for each of you. I enjoy our conversations and friendships, whether it is online, through mail or by telephone; and I certainly enjoy getting to know each and everyone of you a little more each and every day. You are all very special ladies, with such loving personalities and traits that rank very high in my book, with hearts of gold and green thumbs. It has certainly been my pleasure hosting this months swap but more so for the love, support and friendship you bring to this group. Ive been spoiled rotten by all the wonderful hostess goodies that I have already enjoyed or will enjoy soon or will treasure for a long time to come. Since everyone has received their swap box from their respective partner, THIS SWAP IS OFFICIAL CLOSED. Onward to fruitier things.take it away klick!!!!!!!!!!!!!! with gratitude, maryanne
