Crafty book swap...

A month or so ago I signed up for Apryl's Bookish Swap. I haven't done a swap for ages and I liked the sound of books, crafts, treats so I was in!

I was partnered with Lisa-Marie from This Girl Is and started stalking her blog. If you want to see what I sent her, she has blogged about it here.

Lisa-Marie sent me all of this....



The books are David Guterson 'Snow Falling on Cedars' and Anne Marsella 'Remedy'. Both look like great books. I started reading 'Remedy' the other day but have put it away until I finish 'The Tent, The Bucket and Me' by Emma Kennedy. I need something to inspire me to finish reading it; to start with it was really funny, M and I were reading it together, me at night and him in the mornings but then it got boring and samey and to be honest, I have lost my enthusiasm for the book.

Lisa-Marie also sent a scented candle, some lovely chocolate, that Lou and M both have their eyes on and some vanilla tea bags. Mmmm.

And to finish off, she also sent me a cushion with a handy book pocket in the front. Thanks Lisa-Marie!

A cushion with a book pocket?! Then I wouldn't lose my book! Cool idea...

Yep, all you have to do is make sure you don't loose your cushion to your daughter, Katie ;)
