Comment: I loved the extra postcard!! It is really cool to see the different shapes of cactus dancing. We were in Arizona the year of our “Planes Trains, automobile and Bus” vacation! We flew to Oakland, Ca to stay with my cousin,Took a bus to LA. ,Then a train to Flagstaff. We were unable to rent a car so we took the Arizona Shuttle into Phoenix, and from there a plane back to Cedar Rapids. It was in JULY!!! The Arizona Shuttle dropped us off at the airport and I sat on a metal bench to wait for our hotel shuttle- and got a serious burn on the back of my legs thru my pants!! The kids were little and it was one of their favorite vacations.

Comment: Thank you for the fun email of information. Dylan is new to me. I watched the video you sent and he is so delightful! I also have a weird fascination with the really old cookbooks.
Response: Me too! Thanks for the heart! Happy Cooking! His short videos are actually even funnier. But I liked the one I sent because you can see how much he really researches the recipes and takes time working with them. I only borrowed the book on Libby, but I'm going to buy it so I can try more of the recipes!!

Comment: I just bought from Audible Natalie Haynes's "The Ancient Guide to Modern Life" Narrated by: Dan Mersh and it's hilarious. So I looked up his bio - it's Natalie's husband, lol!! You have to buy it and listen to him, its magic!! Thanks for the great recommendations as always - hope you get to Park City for the Film Festival as soon as you can! xxMuggleMom

Comment: Absolutely agree with you about Natalie Haynes! See if you can listen to some of her 'Natalie Haynes Stands Up for the Classics' podcasts on BBC Sounds as well, they're fun! Thanks for -- as always -- excellent reviews and recommendations. Thank you too for the fun and friendship over the months of this swap series!
Response: Yes! I caught a little bit of one of her broadcasts. I tend to listen more to audiobooks, but dive into a podcast once in a whlile. I'll keep hers in mind for sure! Thank you for the heart, and yes, also for the friendship! Love your book recommendations!

Comment: Hello carol, Thanks for sending along the PC. Love your halloween card too! Im actually glad you couldnt find your day of the dead stamp, cos I LOVE the raven stamp. You dont happen to what brand it is or where you got it, do you? The stickers are great and so is the little box with the skulls. Ishall be cutting that up and using the sides! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I almost forgot to mention the postage stamps - ery cool, starwars and halloween!❤️❤️❤️
Response: Oh, I'm so late in writing responses, I'm embarrassed. I actually made that raven stamp from a magazine photo. I mounted it on thin foam, cut it out and scored it where I didn't want in, and mounted it presentation board--the kind that is about 1/4" thick. You have to experiment a little with the scoring so it's deep enough. Fun project! So glad you liked the stamps too! I enjoyed doing this one. Easy to find things you like!

Comment: Great reviews and an interesting mix of books. I looked at the Audible reviews of Miss Aldridge Regrets and they were rather mixed, so I've ordered it as a print book from my local library. I've also ordered The Librarian of Burned Books which looks fascinating. Thanks for the recommendations!
Response: Gosh, I'm late responding to all these. So sorry. I've been MIA here lately. Yeah, it's not a top pick for me, although I did read the next book as well-once she's in NYC. Don't think I'll continue with the series though. Thanks for the heart!

Comment: Hi Carol! The travelers made it safely to me - now for the next swap! Since I am retired, I have been blessed to be able to go see my Granddaughter more, and take trips with the hubby & bestie! They are both still working, sigh, but some day (hopefully soon) I will be out and about even more! LOL! Your summer was very busy - I find I love to go but being back home is also awesome! Enjoy your next travels! All the best! Hugs and Happy Swapping! ;)
Response: Oh, you are so right. I do love seeing new places, but the place I love the best is home! Thanks for the heart and enjoy that Granddaughter!

Comment: As always, an interesting selection of books and thoughtful reviews. I'm amazed Piers Anthony is still around (I've just looked on Wikipedia -- he's 89!) and you've persuaded me to try him again. Like you, I read him avidly in the dim distant past but eventually got tired of the puns -- and if I recall correctly tired of the sexism. But the one you read looks worth a gamble. Thanks for sharing -- I do enjoy these swaps!

Comment: I know a French kiss vaca was good for your soul. I hope October brings better books - especially if we have to be inside more this winter. Did you get the audiobook version of Labyrinth (Languedoc Trilogy, #1) by chance? I see there is an audiobook and I wonder if the story is enhanced by the narrator? Thanks for the 2 recommends from your Sept foray - they are on my tbr list for sure!! xxMuggleMom
Response: Thanks for the heart! I read the eBook for Labyrinth. It's a pretty long book, and I can get lost in audiobooks sometimes, so I thought it'd be easier to read it. May also have been that it was available to borrow sooner! Lol!

Comment: One of your choices this month definitely brought back memories! I worked for a while with a scholar who was researching 18th & 19th century shipwrecks and their depictions -- and I'm sure the Wager was among them! Thank you for the wonderful detailed reviews. As always, several books that will go on my to be read someday list .... Have a great September!
Response: I love that era of exploration. I think I literally did read every book written about Shackleton's journey. Just so fascinating! I look forward to your next reviews!Thanks for the heart!

Comment: My bags are packed and I'm going back to France with you!! And I think I'll read your recommendation 'Wager: A Tale of Shipwreck, Mutiny and Murder" by David Grann because I love his novel "Killers of the Flower Moon" and I'm eagerly anticipating the movie version in a few weeks. It got all the buzz from the Cannes Film Festival no doubt. Great reviews xxMuggleMom
Response: Oh, that would be fun! I'd love to meet you IRL as the kids say. I'm really looking forward to the trip. She keeps sending new details about cool things we'll be doing! I am also anxiously awaiting "Killers of the Flower Moon." Thanks for the heart!

Comment: Thank you for the great postcard, and lovely message! I’m glad you loved being an English teacher, and it’s amazing that you had the opportunity to visit some schools in the UK! Did you notice that our education system is similar / different? And what sport did your niece compete in the youth olympics? :)
Response: That tour was so much fun and so interesting! Many differences, but also much in common too. THe A level exams felt restrictive to me, but what the schools I visited were doing with those who fell into the more vocational route was just incredible. Much of it looked more appealing to me than the academics, and I am totally an academic kind of person. My niece did Triathlon. Her dad competes in Iron Man and she started out running with him. Her older brother does long distance running, but not at the level she achieved. She was headed , in theory to the Olympics, but she got burned out, quit totally, dropped out of college, and now is working with one of the bike companies as a rep. Happier, I hope! More thatn you probably wanted to hear, but there it is! Thanks for the hearted 5!

Comment: Does NetGalley offer audiobooks? Loved your reviews - adding "The Daughter's Tale" by Armando Lucas Correa. I read The German Girl - wasn't a fan but maybe I need to give the author another shot as maybe it was me? Ya never know. "Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore" has been on my tbr since 2021 so I hope I can move it up the list. I was surprised to hear "The Last Chairlift" was dud...might avoid this one, thanks for the insight! xxMuggleMom
Response: Yes, they have just added audiobooks. I'd absolutely give it a try. I think I've encountered more books I didn't like--didn't even finish a few, but still, the ones that were good were really good, and it's kind of fun to get them ahead of publication. They do really want your reviews to help sell the books. I have gotten uncorrected galleys, and that can be frustrating. So many errors sometimes. I find that sometimes I enjoy a book more if I read it and others that I might have stopped reading (The Dutch House) except for an excellent narration that brings a fairly inactive plot to life somehow. Thanks for the heart!

Comment: Great reviews and a couple of books that are going on my TBR list -- Mr Penumbra and Song of the Cell. I would agree with you about the Daisy Dalrymple. I've read several of them but they are all a bit disappointing. You might want to try The Jazz Files by Fiona Veitch Smith. It's a while since I've read that series but my memory is that it had a much stronger female lead than the Carola Dunn books. And, of course, if you haven't read/listened to them (I'd advise listening), Phryne Fisher is great fun (Kerry Greenwood).
Response: I haven't read, but I watched ALL of Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries, and discovered a new 2 season version with her niece continuing her detecting. It's set in the 60s, so it's fun to see the costumes. I'll have to check out the Jazz Files. Sounds intriguing! Thanks for the heart!

Comment: Thank you for this lovely altered PC! It looks so much cozier now with the cute turtles, the seaweed, and the home :) I love living in Berlin. I've lived on 3 continents thus far, but keep coming back. I don't think there's a place more brutally honest than Berlin - and if you're used to it, you miss it everywhere else ^^
Response: What a lovely thing to be able to say about your city! I actually feel the same way about mine. Not so much the city itself, but the area. I love the desert and our mountains! Glad you liked the PC! Thanks for the heart and for joining my swap!

Comment: I enjoyed your review of The Maid but sadly I wasn't a fan. I heard it might be a movie - so maybe I might watch that at some point. I read some of the other reviews about "Fear the Silence" and I think you are definitely helping me avoid a dud, lol!! I think I've heard of the Wool series so I think I'm adding that to my tbr list. As always, thanks for the recommendations and I can't wait to see what you read for July!! xxMuggleMom
Response: Thanks for the heart! I think I let a lot slide in The Maid because I really did like the main character. I'm curious to see the series. I think it may fix some of the holes. I hope so! Thanks for the heart!

Comment: I love that you admitted that you didn't care for the theme. I am impressed with the direction that you took it. So great. I love the Happy Planner for this type of memory keeping. I also love that you used a variety of media. Thanks so much for participating! When I was starting my page this weekend, our 16 year old dog Charlie had to be euthanized and so not only did it mean I needed to push the swap deadline out a few extra days. But also I wanted to do a different layout and have mine be about death. Thanks so much for your beautiful design and always coming back to swap.
Response: I appreciate that. It's interesting how differently we all interpret the assigned theme, isn't it? I love seeing how they turn out. I'm sad to see the swap ending, but I know they do run their course. I have a couple I may retire. Fewer sign-ups and it gets boring having the same few ones. We'll see! Thanks for hosting it for so long!

Comment: Great reviews! I've ordered The Reading List and Remarkably Bright Creatures from the library -- both look great. Thank you for the recommendations. I've never read A Suitable Boy either -- I've heard very good things about it but the length (over 1,000 pages) puts me off. Funny -- I do read Victorian triple-decker 3 volume novels which probably reach that length, but a modern novel that long seems more daunting. Have a good reading month in May!
Response: Thanks for the hearted 5! So far, I've read some really good books! I've got a long flight coming up at the end of the month, so maybe I'll get a few more finished before June!

Comment: I love the Reading List too! I can honestly say that as soon as I finished the audiobook, borrowed from e-library, I purchased my own copy because I loved it that much. I think its about time I reread it. Good luck with finding a truck - we are those truck ppl for our friends, lol.

Comment: As always, great reviews and ideas for books I'd like to read. I've just ordered Babel at the local public library (they have nine copies but there are 21 reservations ahead of me so I think it will be a wee while before I get to read it). Your comment about the Muslim women who felt safe in the veil was interesting. When I taught undergraduates at the university, I had a couple of young women who decided to become veiled partway through the term. Both talked about the relief of no longer being hassled/chatted up by boys and of their feelings of comfort in having moved out of the 'desirable' category. Thought-provoking... I look forward to April!
Response: I actually felt sad when I finished Babel. I had really come to love those characters! It is a long book, too, so I really felt invested. Would kind of like to see a sequel, but I think the story really has been told. And yes, the comment about feeling safe surprised me, but I can totally see it. Just sad that along with that come so many other repressive actions. One of Brooks' major concerns is getting rid of the practice of mutilating young girls. Heavy subject for sure, but I appreciated her peek into that community. THanks for the heart!

Comment: Film Festival - I so want to go to Park City next year for just one day. Its only 1hr drive - have you done the Sundance film festival ever & give me pointers so I know what to do! From your list, I'm going give 'A Spool of Blue Thread' a 2nd chance- I tried to read it in 2012 I think..I remember the beginning was dramatic with the son's call but then I just lost interest. Maybe the audiobook will keep me engaged. Nine Parts of Desire: The Hidden World of Islamic Women has definitely intrigued me. And Babel by RF Kuang has been on my list for a while - love her other series so much! Thanks for the great recommends! xxMuggleMom

Comment: Hi Carol, Thanks for your lovely letter. It was a little tricky to read as the envelope got wet, but luckily the card was in plastic. Hope you found a nice dress for the wedding. Would have liked to have been on that shopping trip with you - love a good deal! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Response: Oh darn! Glad the card survived. I wonder how it got wet! I have found several dresses I like! Yay! Now I just have to decide which one! Amazon turned out to be a great source for gowns, some I'd tried on at Dillards for more than twice the money, too! Thanks for the heart!

Comment: Wow - great set of books and reviews! Two of my favourites on there -- the Neil Gaiman and the Octavia Butler. Is that the first Butler you've read or have you read her others? I've read some of them -- I've never yet got around to the Lilith's Brood series, but I love Parable of the Sower and Parable of the Talents and am particularly fond of Bloodchild. But your other books were all new to me and I've added several to my list for future reading, once I get past this heavy research period (which will, I'm afraid, shape my lists for the next few months).
Response: Yay! It is the first Octavia Butler book, but I'll certainly look at the others. I really enjoyed that one. I have to say your research sounds interesting too! But I know what you mean about research in general. Sometimes it's nice to just take a break with something easy and frivolous! Thanks for the heart!

Response: Thanks, I'm sure we'll run into each other at some point! Yes, I agree. Swaps do seem to lose steam after a while. I'd hoped this one would last a little longer. I still have SO many wanderers out there somewhere. Maybe they'll make it back! I got a Pass & Paste last fall that had been MIA since 2017! lol!

Watched THE PINK PANTHER last night for the first time ever. That was not my cup of tea. I'm going to have to stick to the real classics from the 30s and 40s - mybe the 50s. Hope to meet you in another swap soon!

"This Time Tomorrow" by Emma Straub was a 3star for me and we have the same take on the storyline. I'm adding The Hacienda by Isabel Cañas to the tbr list. The Lost Book of Eleanor Dare by Kimberly Brock sounds good because every time I drove past Roanoke (as a kid) I would always have wild imaginations about what happened to the colonists, lol!

Comment: Thanks for the review of The Secret River -- another one to add to my to be read list. I think you're probably right and Wolf Hall would be better as a real book -- I think it's too multi-layered and with too many characters to work well on audio -- I can see it has the potential to be quite bewildering and overwhelming. Did you hear that Hilary Mantel died recently? It feels strange to have come to the end of this series of swaps -- but it would have felt even stranger to carry on with them after the queen's death. Maybe in the New Year we should do a similar series -- I was looking at a 'read your way around Europe' reading challenge that might be fun to do. Thanks again for the articulate and interesting review.

Comment: I really enjoyed reading your review and have added the book to my Audible wish list. I appreciated your coments about the narration -- I agree with you that not all authors make good narrators! It is sad to have come to the end of this series of swaps -- I've really enjoyed them and have read books from such a variety of cultures. But somehow it also seems appropriate that the swaps ended as the queen died -- it might have been a bit weird to continue celebrating her jubilee after her passing. Maybe one of us should set up another multi-country reading swap -- read our way round the world, perhaps?
Response: That's a great idea! Maybe after the holidays! It seems like it's getting harder and harder to get people to join swaps that don't involve going out and buying loot. I've never understood those, but they sure are popular! Thanks for the heart!

Comment: Hi Carol, I really enjoyed reading your account of what you read and listened to this month. Like you, I write plays and audio drama so I was particularly interested in your comments on the various plays. Ripcord sounds particularly attractive. I doubt I will be able to get hold of a copy here but I'll have a try. And I found myself thinking about the challenges of adapting 'The Curious Incident of the Dog in the NIght-time' for the stage, given the complexity of the novel (which I also enjoyed). It obviously also raises some interesting casting choices -- should you cast an able-bodied actor as the boy or find an actor with autism? Interestingly, in the UK, colour-blind casting is becoming more common (so that Hamlet might, for example be played by a black or Asian actor) but at the same time there's quite a lot of attempting to cast actors with disabilities for roles that portray disabled people. And finally, I've added 'True Biz' to my 'books I'd like to read' list! Thanks for sharing.
Response: So glad you enjoyed my list! I managed to find a copy of the script for both "Curious Incident.." and "Ripcord" on Scribd! I's a subscription service, but usually has a free month offer when you first join. They seem to have lots of plays! Thanks so much for reading my list and reviews and for the heart!

Comment: Thanks! I'd highly recommend Convenience Store Woman and There's No Such Thing as an Easy Job. They're both about women's lives, but very different from the usual "women's fiction." I also liked Grotesque, Out, Earthlings, Six Four, and The Travelling Cat Chronicles.
Response: Cool! thanks for the recs! I'll take a look and add them to my (ever-growing) TBR list! Thanks for the heart!

Comment: Thanks for sharing your response to your Jubilee read this month. The Whale Rider sounds great -- I'm going to add it to my TBR list. You did an excellent job of persuading me to read it! There were several that I considered reading this month and that was one of them -- although in the end I opted for the Canadian-authored The Handmaid's Tale because it's one of those books I felt I really ought to have read. But in August I'm again moving away from North America and GB. I've very much enjoyed this series of swaps. I do hope you'll join in the remaining ones!
Response: Thanks for the hearted 5! I intend to finish them out, and I'm going to check out more of the books from the decades I missed. Such a cool idea! So many great books. I read The Handmaids Tale back when it first came out and loved it, then. I considered re-reading it, but I really wanted to seek out authors and books I was not already familiar with. Many on the list were not available, sadly. So much great literature we ignore because it's not from the USA or GB. I love that the list has books from the Commonwealth -- so many other cultures! Thanks so much for hosting this swap! I hope you like The Whale Rider!

Comment: Oh gosh, we have to finish this tvl card for Jess soon - it's the 3rd time I've gotten it, lol. I love the recommendations you gave - both sound right up my alley. I have read "These Are My Words" & the 2 other books in the series which I highly recommend the audiobooks. The scene with the rattlesnake during the flood was unnerving and is one of my ultimate nightmares. I hope "My Name is Resolute" packs the same kind of gritty drama. xxMuggleMom
Response: It definitely has lots of that! I had heard of the other book, but not read it, but will now! This was quite the ride! And so well-researched! I love getting a little history along with a great story! Thanks for the heart!

It's both a historical fiction. The first one a bit lighter read than the second.

I was going through some papers/ mail from almost a year ago (time flies so fast!), most of it opened, and found your beautiful pink rose-petaled envelope, UNOPENED! IDK what was going on in my life at that time that I had unopened mail (probably Spring fever, TBH 😂), but here I am opening it 10 months later! (I noticed this was my last swap last year before I took a 6 month break, returning in October for the Christmas Card swaps, so yeah I think I had Sping/Summer fever!) Thank you for the sweet handwritten note regarding stationary/stationery, its/it's and fewer/less! LOL I loved English class in school, favorite subject!, so these mistakes stand out to me so glaringly, too (just like this wrongly punctuated sentence 🤣). But it's all good. I get their point. Thank you also for the handmade puppy/kitten envelope and the sheet of stationery/envelope set. I will get this PC in circulation again (@muppet450) and hopefully she'll see it home again in probably a year if we're honest (since these swaps are 2 months apart now) 😳 Thank you again and I hope you believe in "better late than never" also. 🙊... Karla, 2/21/22

Comment: Thank you for the slips for my jar. I look forward to reading them. Sorry to say, that I couldn’t read your handwriting on one of the two notes you sent about the swap — something about a stamp? ~ Z. Update: Yes, I did receive the stamped image!!! TY ~ Had taken it out, straight away, to hang up next to other art from swappers. I received a lot of mail that day , then when I went to rate, it slipped from my mind, as I didn’t associate it with a stamp. Pretty cool. 😎 💕
Response: Yeah, terrible handwriting, That's why I typed the messages. I handmade the stamp for the Phoenix bird. One of my first attempts, so I wasn't entirely happy with how it turned out, but I loved the saying I put on the back and the idea of it. There should have also been a PC sized print enclosed. If not, please let me know and I'll send. Thanks so much for the hearted 5!

Comment: Thank you for your long letter with many book suggestions :) I will see if any of them are available in Finnish. Have you tried "Born a Crime" by Trevor Noah? I highly recommend it! The billing system for Audible sounds very clever. Apps that are available in Finnish are mostly based on paying for amount of hours you can listen in a month. It's annoying when you run out of time in the middle of a book! Thanks for the Blended Baked Oats -recipe too! I will try it if the current heatwave ever is over. It's not quite as hot as you had, but enough to make me avoid using the oven :D P.S. Your envelope was partly ripped open, and was delivered to me enclosed in another envelope by US Postal Service. Seems the machines are very harsh, so it might be safer to use thicker envelopes.
Response: I loved Trevor Noah's book. I actually listened to the audio version with him narrating. It was fantastic! Thanks for letting me know about the enive. I was a bit worried about it, so good to know. I use my toaster oven to make the blended baked oats, so it doesn't heat up the kitchen so much. I think I'm addicted to those now! The recipe is really versatile. I've used jam and coconuts shreds, made it lemon-blueberry, and double chocolate too! yummy! Thanks for the heart!

Comment: Hello! TYVM for your nice email. You chose a lot of great places. I’ve lived here in Bellevue my entire life and I’ve never visited Bellevue Little theatre. But I do hear I need to. Haworth Park has been closed since the flood 2 years ago. My sons used to play baseball there. Hopefully it will re-open someday. Fontanelle Forest is definitely amazing! And I’d love to also one day visit the Treetop Adventures. I’ve never been to Lauritzen Gardens either but hear I also need to. Never been to Joslyn castle but will this weekend as my son is having his prom pics taken there with his gf and friends. The SAC Museum is definitely another place to visit. You would also love Mahoney State Park. So much to see and do. The Lookout Tower is breathtaking!!!!
Response: Thanks! This was a fun swap. Thanks for the heart! If I ever get out your way, I have a good plan for what to see. Thanks for the additional tips. I hope Joslyn Castle is fun. What a great place for prom photos!

But I need your help. I always take a picture of all the swaps I send. But a Collaboration one with a tulip? I can find it anymore........
Response: Cool! I worried about that one, but it was so fun to do! Glad you like the notecard. When I read your profile, I thought of that one right away. I wish it was easier to bike everywhere here in Phoenix, but there's almost nothing but more houses close to me, and the summer would be brutal to ride in! And I had it wrong--it was an HD/HP PC with lots of tulips. You added a tidbit about tulips being Turkish and brought there via Australia! Love it!

Comment: Thanks for the extra stadium postcard! We are trying to visit all the MLB stadiums too, but we just started in 2016 and have been to only 4 so far. We've been to several of the MiLB stadiums too and just a couple American association of Independent baseball - although I think they just merged with MiLB so they aren't called that anymore. If you didn't know already, each stadium should have a stamp that you can have them stamp in a book with the place and date, just for fun.
Response: You've got me beat. I've only been to the one here and to the Brewers' in MN. I thought I'd get to add two when I went to Chicago for my niece's graduation a year ago, but we all know how that turned out! I'll keep trying! I love your idea of stamping a Pass Book or something. I'll be MLB could get an airlines to partner with them to sponsor that! Thanks so much for the heart! I hope we both can add more this summer!

Comment: Ooooo! Thank you for the recipe! I don’t have spelt in the cupboard but will pick up this week. These muffins sound perfect as a pick-me-up when I am out on my new job as mail carrier :-)
Response: It's one of my favorites! I haven't tried it with spelt flour. I just use oat, and if I don't have the flour, I just put a cup of oatmeal in the blender (not the quick oats kind), and you get oat flour pretty fast! Thanks for the heart!

Comment: Thank you so much for the sweet card and ephemera and sending the traveling letter! Like you, I was confused by the numbers on this letter but I think what happened is it got switched with the international one and then switched back. That set is on a different number than USA. Have a wonderful day! Hugs, Diane
Response: Aha! That makes sense. I've seen that with some of the Pass & Paste cards before. I guess as long as it gets passed around and sent back, it's all good! Thanks for rating and for the heart!

Response: That's so true. I'm hoping we can be closer soon. My grandson's birthday is March 7 and that was the last time we were really able to cuddle and be together. He turns 3 in a few months, and I'm really hoping we can be together again. Thanks for the heart and 5!

How are you doing? What Is new in your world? Hope the weather there is cooler and you guys are all wearing masks now! I heard your governor speak the other day about Covid!
Response: Thanks for the heart! It has finally started cooling down here, but then it gets hot again in a few days. At least it's staying below 90 now, but we had the hottest November ever--it's in the record books! Things are better where I am, but I still see some people without masks at times. Fewer than before I think. I feel hopeful, especially with the vaccines coming! I just hope people will get vaccinated! That'll be the next hurdle. Stay safe!

Response: One of these days, we'll both make it there... I hope! I came close one year. I was consulting in a school district about 1.5 hrs away and intended to take a long weekend next time I was there. My luck--I got switched to a school in IL! Thanks for the heart!

Comment: Impossible! I insist you take back this card and send me something truly butt ugly! This swap was NOT entitled "The Somewhat Homely Post Card Swap"! It was not, the "Rather Bland Post Card Swap"! I forgive you this time, as we desert dwellers are too hot and dusty to be rational thinkers at this time. But next time-BUTT UGLY, do you hear?!! Haha! Where'd you go to high school then?
Response: haha! Sincere apologies! That was the ugliest one I had. Guess I need to go buy some more. I went to Westwood back in olden days when it was the "new" high school in Mesa. My brother went to Mesa High. Thanks for the heart!

I've added it to my list of books to read (not just listen to) because I liked it but know I missed a lot while multitasking. The Night Circus is in my queue of audiobooks I've checked out from the library. I have to finish listening to the Custard Protocol series by Gail Carriger first. Thank you for a great letter, and I love the stamps and bookmarks! <3

Good luck with the writing and gardening - two things I would love to do! Stay safe out there.
Response: Thank you! I keep trying different masks. I found some from when my sons used them to mow the lawn, but they got stretched out. I made one I like but the ear loops bother my ears. Trying out the surgical mask style later today when I have to go out. We'll see how that goes. Glad I have most of what I need. Stay safe, too!

Response: Oh, my. Well, it started with a lemon olive oil cake--so easy and yummy, and it whittled down the giant bag of lemons my son brought over. I may need to make another one of those! Then came spice cake CC cookies. I wasn't sure how that would be, but they were really good! Added some nuts too. Next were brownies. I'm freezing some stuff so I don't eat it all--I live alone, so it's just me consuming all of this. Yikes! Gotta add another walk or two to my day or I'll not fit into any of the clothes I used to wear. Just in stay-at-home comfy stuff mostly. Stay safe!

Comment: Thank you so much for the PCs and the washi tape. And the one with the railway station? It's in Amersfoort in the centre of the Netherlands. Looking at the car at the left I think this picture is 100 years old! Now there is a very modern station with a lot of travellers. And about stocking up articles in the supermarket: Americans and Dutch are one and the same.................
Response: 100 years old! Wow! That's so cool. I love that you recognized the place! Hope you and yours are well and safe. Thanks for the hearted 5!

Response: Thanks for rating and for the heart! Chandler has grown so much I hardly recognize it when I go down that way. I'm in North Central Phoenix, so that's not very often. But it's got a cool downtown now with a great little theater and some really good places to eat. A far cry from when I was growing up in Mesa and it was all cotton fields and orange groves.

Thank you for the postcard, tag and the circus envelope (the washi did not hold the flap down on the envelope so you might want to remember that for future reference-I don't think anything was lost tho!) Thanks again!
Response: Thank you so much. I was pretty happy with them, so I'm glad you like them as well! Thanks for the heart! Sorry to hear the envie didn't hold. I was trying not to damage the recipe and I knew regular tape would pull it off. I hoped that the glue stick and washi tape would do it. I'm so glad the piece arrived okay. Thanks for letting me know.

Thanks for the crafting story behind it, I LOVE knowing those :) Thanks for the feathers, they are really beautiful & intriguing! I'll look up the book Beautiful Animals, & no, I never read a rule that one can't make prayer flags for oneself! There are no "rules", it's just good vibes :) :)
Response: So grateful that you like the owl. I really had fun creating this one. I'd be curious to see what you think of the book. I ended up with mixed feelings--it certainly stayed with me for a while, which to me is a sign of a good book/film, even when I don't like it!

Comment: Reply 1/18/17 That the **last person** puts a stamp on it should be emphasized. The person before me made a big deal out of the stamp. On an international, that really makes a difference Of course, it makes sense when you think about it, but thinking is difficult and painful ~~~~~ It's no wonder you don't get them back - this time you forgot both the stamp *and* your name and address. If I were evil, I would put mine on it and co-opt it. Anyway, looks like a fun challenge & I like the fish card. Thanks. ~~~~~~PS. Kyra has your egg mosaic, so you should be getting that one back fairly soon. She said she'd send me a picture of the finished piece.
Response: OH, my! I don't think I've done that before, but it's been a hectic time. I actually got a couple back just this week, so they've just been languishing out there. I know I've gotten partnered with someone whose card I have the last few times, so I've had to hold onto their cards. I imagine that's what has been happening. Thanks for taking care of it. Actually in this swap, the last person adds the stamp since it might need to be international. Thanks for adding my address, though!

Response: Yes, I'm sure it was. I wish there was a date on it somewhere. I have a whole stack of those from a thrift store and no clue what era they're from. Not very recent, I think!

Comment: Sorry for the delay in registrating the arrival of your journal, I have been busy at work and had some issues with my own journal. Your journal is very nice and I also got the letter with the address stickers, which I have added as you asked. I hope you will enjoy my entries and the rest of this swap. Best Wishes

Comment: Carol, I received the letter today, 6/28, but there were no postcards or CD in it as the letter said. Thanks for your description of Arizona. I was there about 11 years ago. Teresa
Response: Had the envelope come open? I know I put them in there! I'll re-send them.

Comment: What a wonderful package! I loved everything! The tile was so perfect since I used to ride horses and still love them - I took it to my job to use as a coaster at my desk! I also hung up some of the beautiful postcards at my desk. I can't wait to find a special place for the ornament! Thanks SO much!

Comment: Carol-Your postcards are fabulous! I love the desert even though I have never been. I also use the spray adhesive. It can get a bit messy. You shouldn't be afraid to mail your post cards without envelopes they were quite sturdy and can handle anything the post office dishes out! Thanks Lisa
Response: Oh, I'm so glad you like them and that they survived! The spray was messy, but it seemed to work pretty well.
