The storm earlier this week only gave us an inch of the fluffy kind. As long as I don’t have to shovel, I’m good! Winter well.

Response: I'm so very happy to hear the postcard was okay! I feel I have to clarify though; it was my first card for the mailart group, not my first handmade PC. I have a hard time determining whether something is mailart or "just" a handmade PC when it comes to my own creations LOL. I hope you'll continue to have a shovel-less winter!

Comment: Thanks so much!! I added Strangers to my TBR, and a few others too -- seems like our tastes overlap a bit! Have you read Out by Natsuo Kirino? You might also like Together Tea and The Stationery Shop, both by Marjan Kamali. (BTW, it's really impressive that you can start another book right after finishing one! I always need to wait a day or two for the previous book to get out of my system first!)

Response: You're very welcome! And thanks for the reading suggestions - I think I have The Stationery Shop on my e-reader. I've read Out and gave it 4 stars om Goodreads but don't remember much about it. Do you like Mo Hayder? I've read Tokyo but found it too gruesome to read any other books... Alos, I would prefer to keep a few days between books but then I just stop reading... Finished my last read on Monday and I have yet to pick up something new!

Response: Yes, Norwegian Wood is Haruki Murakami's internationally most loved book. You should definitely try to stream the film as it's really very cinematographic. A small piece of art! It should be available somewhere as it's already 13 years old (2010).

Response: Awww thank you for your super sweet message! I sure hope you'll find the inspiration to craft as it's so much fun. Please don't think you have to make ART. Just play! Maybe there's a friend to make a craft date with? Creating is so liberating :-)

The beautiful embossed papers (I think wallpaper) is so stunning and so textural! I love all the little tucks and pockets filled with so many pretty little bits. You did such a good job on this little project. Swaps that I receive that are extra special are placed in various places in my craft for me to enjoy and this one will be one of those! Thank you so very much for the lovely swap!

Response: Awwwww you've made me blush! I'm really happy that you like the notebook -- and yes, the textured part are wallpaper :-) Apologies for the late response!

Response: AAAAH fijn dat je hem leuk vindt! Ik 'hergebruik' zoveel mogelijk uit het dagelijks leven in mijn mailart, dus ja: wat mij betreft doen we dit vaker! Enne, zelf houd ik ook meer van bloeiende velden dan de kunstmatigheid van bloemencorso, maar het is wél typisch Nederlands en ik heb er goede herinneringen aan overgehouden. Hoewel de bloemenslingers die je voor op de motorkap op je auto kon kopen nog diepere indruk op mijn kinderziel hebben gemaakt ;-)

I'll make sure to follow you on Goodreads, if I haven't already. Sometimes I forget to go in and check those requests. I have had The Winners for awhile too and really need to read it. I love that trilogy and all of his books, so I know that once I start that book, I won't want to put it down - and it's a BIG book! LOL I sometimes join challenges, but I've got to read so many book for book tours and ARCs for NetGalley that my schedule is pretty crowded. Are you in Instagram? I am much more up to date on my reading there than on Goodreads. (I'm behind about 8-9 reviews on there) My name in Instagram is Janeinsd. Thank you for the wonderful note you included with your swap. You are right, you mom's Edith Holden books would be GOLD right now! ha ha ha

Crying in H-Mart was the only biographical book I've read in a long time that didn't make me dislike the person it was about after reading it. It has some big moments of sorrow in it, and some big moments of joy. The book made me feel like Michelle is a real person, vs other recent biographies that made me realize just how out of touch even the most down to earth celebrities can be. I almost quit the genre, but won't after this stellar book. I hope you enjoy it.

Response: You're very welcome. And I definitely think there's something like "a little OCD" LOL. Thanks for the heart!

I think everything was here and fine -- you had wrapped it in ribbon and I don't think anything got away and nothing is damaged. That might be why it took so long to arrive. But totally worth waiting for!) Thanks for a great swap!

Comment: Thank you for your lovely pack-full envelope! What nice choices you picked for me! Thank you! And I enjoyed reading your note as to how your are handling the virus. We are having trouble with governors running rough-shod over the Constitution and not being even-handed in applying the law. Fortunately, we live in a rural area and can pretty much do what we want as there are few people around us. I have been tested because I needed an invasive procedure and I tested negative. We know of 4 people who have had it and all report that it's like a cold and the four got over it in times that varied from 1-5 days. I think it is mutating and is only dangerous for those with a compromised immune system. Have fun with the donkeys - I didn't know they were an issue in The Netherands. At least you get to be outside, which is very healthy!

Comment: Hoi Chanou, Wat een mooie envelop met inhoud viel er vandaag op mijn deurmat. Een prachtige envelop en super leuke paarse en Iris-bloemen. Past helemaal bij mij!! En dan natuurlijk je PC kaartje. Eigenlijk had je in het eerste vakje al iets van jezelf mogen schrijven. Maar zo gaat ie een ronde langer mee... Leuk met de naaimachine. Ga eens puzzelen wat ik er bij kan maken. De facebooksite van deze groep heet trouwens Nederlandse Swappers

Response: Hoi Iris, dank voor je berichtje en hart! Ik had begrepen dat je 3 of 4 vakjes maakt en er eentje mag invullen. Omdat ik geen verdere voorkeuren heb, had ik niet het idee dat ik per se nog iets moest opschrijven naast mijn gegevens. En dus 3 (niet 4) vakjes gemaakt ;-) Ben benieuwd wat jij en de volgende deelenemers ervan maken. Alvast bedankt! :-)

Your note was a treat to read too. Congratulations to your aunt, I hope her 50s are a great decade. ------------------------ Gnoe thank you so much for emailing your sloth postcard. I love it. The stitching is a nice touch. And it's so nice of you to include a photo of the back. I have my fingers crossed that I will still get that postcard by snail mail. I think the postal system is slow because of the quarantine. When/if it gets here, I'll update this message and message you. So interesting to read that you volunteer at a donkey sanctuary. I hear they are beautiful and wonderful animals in many ways.

Response: Wow. You are really too kind rating like this on the basis of just the photos. My heart is exploding! 💓💓💓 Will still work on a replacement though while keeping my fingers crossed for a safe arrival of the sloth.

The audubon I actually have no received before, or seen, despite having audubon prints all over my house! :):):) This ad card with the travel bug is AWESOME! We call roaches "palmetto bugs" as a polite way of referring to them here. It's so silly. This dragonfly card is exquisite! All these extras are amazing and you put so much work into the lovely envelope despite not feeling so well! These stickers are wonderful, I especially love the kitchen faux postage. The tiny metal cicada is such a treasure to me. I remember so many nights where I grew up falling asleep to their sounds. Thank you for the cool buttons (MIFFY!) for my collection. Just so much wonderfulness, I'm so grateful. And I loved hearing about you getting to see St. Vincent and David Byrne! They are such a good music-making pair. David Byrne is neuroatypical, too, if you didn't know :):):) Thank you for such a special swap and hope you are safe and snug wherever you are :):):) THANK YOU!

And those two tiny goats! I loved the color of the envelope, lime green and the mauve go well together! You are so sweet to be sensitive to my mauve sensibilities, lol. THank you so much for the tea as well, I just love getting tea from other countries and this will be a special cup to enjoy. I loved the tape and the stamps, you really went above and beyond. Such a happy piece of mail!

Response: I'm really happy to hear that! Anything to put a smile on your face -- you've had a hard time. Take care!

Je kan in Amerika een abonnement nemen op het tijdschrift Art Journal. Is best leuk, maar na een jaar heb je het allemaal wel gezien. Het tijdschrift wordt vanuit Amerika naar je huisadres gestuurd en het abonnement loopt automatisch af na 1 of 2 jaar, ligt er aan hoelang je een abonnement neemt. Je moet wel betalen met bv visa of PayPal.

Response: I'm glad you like it! Coffee cups and hearts are both on your likes list if I remember correctly. Sorry for the late reply but I had to check with a Danish pen pal for the correct translation as I had an idea but wasn't 100% sure. It says "dear friend, shall we drink a cup of coffee together soon".

Comment: I loved the creative idea! It was so awesome that I got it... but then when I opened it I discovered that you've sent me only tea wraps. If you would have read my profile, you would have noticed that I wrote that I don't collect just any wraps but wraps of teas I drink only. Before opening it I thought you included a teabag or something... but then I was honesty quite a little disappointed. But well, the intention was good so I don't mind :). Thanks for the postcard.

Response: Aw, so sorry to have disappointed you nyanSan. I actually HAD read that but understood that you just preferred to taste the teas, not that it was a must. So I figured you'd rather have more for your collection than just the 1 teabag. :( It is clear in you text though so I don't know how I missed that :(( #FAIL But did you like the postcard I picked for you?

Comment: I would have added the "wish", too, but for your first ATC? This is great. I love how you made the spaghetti ball, lol. Spaghetti is my favourite meal, and I loved Lady and the Tramp!!

Response: Thank you! I was sooooo worried you wouldn't like it... :D

Comment: Woooow, this envelope was bursting full of stickers! I love them all and they will come in handy for decorating. The letter paper is gorgeous, where did you get it from? What did you change, sticker wise? I love Miffy :3 I hope your kittes are well, thank you again! xx

Response: Yay, glad it arrived safely and is to your liking! :D I had to think VERY hard which letter paper I used LOL (that's why I'm only responding now). I got it from a Dutch chain store called V&D; I don't think they carry it any more. I can't remember what stickers I changed exactly (puffy owls and such I think) but I threw in some Asian, HK etc. :D

Comment: What a wonderful postcard and such a cleaver way to sent gifts with it! I would never have thought to do that but I will now. To answer your question about the "ye Old Curiosity Shop", sadly yes it's still there and sadly yes, it's still a very, very strange shop. Thank you so much for your wonderful swap.

Response: Oh my, who would have thought that shop still exists! O_o And you're welcome of course!
