Comment: Carmen, your rolo is absolutely wonderful. I love the theme, and I do have hope for the future...although I'd have more hope if I didn't live in the US of Trump, who is still working his poisonous magic on great numbers of our politicians. Please forgive the diatribe...but I live in a country where there is a mass shooting nearly every day, and no one seems to be safe even at the grocery store. But I digress...the rolo is amazing, and I thank you also for the lovely extras. I see many more rolos in your future!
Response: You are too kind. I am not very artistic, but am trying to foster that side of me. Still scares me though. :-)

And yes you hear my family name more often in the Netherlands. Most of my family are living near the Dutch border. So I think they came to live in Belgium a long long time ago. What a coincidence it is the same as your son’s friend. Also love the Vincent Van Gogh quote on the back of the envelope. Hope to see you again in an other swap. 12/8/20 : Received your resend today and how I love your “soul sewing”. I’ve never tried it but you give me some inspiration. Thank you for doing the effort of resending. I feel sorry the first one arrived after you already did the resend. I will try to make it up to you and send you a little something in return. Just keep an eye on your mailbox.♥️

Comment: Hi Carmen, Your envy arrived in my mailbox this morning and I thoroughly enjoyed your letter - it especially brought back lovely memories of my 4 & 1/2 years spent in Canada, mostly in Ontario. I'd love to correspond with you and will write back during May since you are so fortunate to be visiting Florida. I so enjoyed the drive from Miami to Key West, where we stayed a week - all those bridges! and the Everglades were simply awesome! Have a wonderful time and if you can, pse send me a postcard from somewhere during your travels. Best wishes, Mandy
Response: I'm am so glad that you received my letter - fairly quickly too. I am looking forward to getting your letter in May. I will watch for an interesting postcard to send over in the meantime. Take care! Carmen

Comment: Thank you for the pictures. I love the lupins. Many, many years ago my sister and I took a camping trip to New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and PEI. I fell in love with the lupins growing wild along the roads. This spring on a woodland walk I found some lupins growing wild along the trail. First time I've seen them outside of a garden here in MA. My husband couldn't understand my delight. :)
Response: I'm so glad you like the photo. There's something special about wildflowers, isn't there. Have a great day and thank you for the heart.

Comment: I need to first say that when you first noticed I rated you, the comment probably made no sense. That was because I wrote for the wrong CD mix, OOPS. Yeah, I'm a dope. Sorry! Being that said, your package came (not sure if it came TODAY or earlier, but today was the day I picked it up) and I was beyond amazed. I was GIDDY. And it takes a lot for me to be giddy. O..M...G my friend. OMG. ONE heart is not enough, and I'd give you a hug if I could. First, the music..fantastic. Nice choice on the artists, especially adding in Canadian artists (didn't knwo Avril did anything beyond sk8trboi). I proudly wore the oakleaf pin and said "HEY! I'M an adopted Canadian!" Everything you did was way beyond and above. I'm just way too tired to actually hit the gym and put the mix to good use, but I'm keeping the cd in the car to help me get through highway traffic. So funny, you're coming here and I'm going up there around the same time. HEHE!! Thank you again. Seriously <3 <3

Comment: Hello Carmen, Thank you for the "C Recipe Postcard" you sent to me for this swap. I appreciate the way you made the postcard unique and special. I love the picture of the chicken and the recipe sounds YUMMY! I hope that we get to meet each other more as the Alphabet Recipe Postcard Swap continues. I will be proudly adding your recipe postcard to my personal postcard collection and more specifically to my Alphabet Receipe Postcard collection. Until we meet again, Happy Swappiing!

Comment: Carmen! Your package arrived today, just as I was sending off your package! It was perfect; I can't believe it. I'm so happy that you wanted to swap with me. I would love to swap with you again. I think I may have sent you some of the same colours! Hahha. Don't worry about pastels; the idea of this swap was to send out different colours so people would come up with crazy combinations. You. Rock.
Response: Thanks Janice. I'm looking forward to your package too. Kind of fun to watch for presents in the mail. :-)
