So I am now revealed. :o) I had a BLAST putting together your package and have been waiting for you to get it - sorry it took SO long.
I love your blog and it's now one of my regular stops on the 'net.
The yarn for the bag is Dalegarn Baby Ull I think. I will go out into the stash and find the actual color in the next day or so. I wish I could say I made the bag, but I didn't. I received it as part of a swap and I cannot use a short strap handbag, so I saved it for someone special and that was you.
Lastly, I love the fact that the toilet brush was a puzzle! I had hoped that it would be somewhat confusing to you as you took things out, and it worked just as I had hoped. I was originally looking for the serving tray with the Jolly Roger in rhinestones that was at that restaurant on your birthday, but couldn't find it anywhere. THEN I saw the skully toilet brush - what could be better? May your commode be ever clean, sparkly and pirate-y....
oooh...yes, Tom Baker, 20ft stripey scarf Dr Who...David Tennant...yum... he doesn't have to wear a scarf... or anything for that matter. Ahem... think I'll go back to work now...where's my cold water?
yay! Its like Christmas but its October! How does one get a secret pal?
Tempting as it is, I'm not sure I want to know how Hans can identify the scent of an elephant.
(Al Pacino, anyone?)
And, having lived in Alabama for a while, having been married to an Alabamian, rest assured --- a skull-encrusted toilet brush set is only one of the unique things that can be found there.
Now THAT is a FAB SP package!!
I say the toliet brush is the straight fav!!!
You deserve it!!
Elephant? When did he sniff an elephant?
Heheheheh... I now have a vision of floating a pirate ship in my toilet.
And I'm sorry, Helen -- I was going to email you prior to posting, but couldn't find an email address in the vast sea of old emails. Note to self: next time, save SP address to address book.
Donna, you bad girl. But David Tennant could turn a lot of good girls bad...
Keri, sign-ups are no in swing for the next Secret Pal. You may find details at http://secretpal13.blogspot.com/
Skull toilet brushes are an Alabama thing? How interesting...
Aw, thanks, Stacey.
You know, Keri, the SP thing has brought several really lovely people into my circle of imaginary friends. Stacey is just one of them -- Ally too.
And Hans's elephant is an object of puzzlement and wonder to all of us. When he said it, he just said, "elephant," and went back to typing. Usually there's a justification or a giggle or a smart-ass comment... this time, just, "elephant."
Actually, I had to send away to Missouri for the skull encrusted brush de toilette....
Whoa! I knit that same bag (from Knitty) but that one is WAAAYY better than mine. Way to go Helen!
Kinda like deja vu all over again, Yvette?
Heh... exotic skulls from distant lands...
