Secret Sister strikes again!

The mailman pulled up today just as my kids were leaving to spend the afternoon with my MIL and my husband was leaving for a job interview. I had an hour to myself, and what better way to start it than to open a lovely gift the mailman delivered from my Secret Sister!

In the package was a set of two dish towels and one dish rag. They are 100% cotton, which I love! And they have a beautiful beige and burgundy country look to them, which I love, love! We are always running out of dish towels and rags, as we don't use paper products (except for toilet paper) in my house. And these are sooooo perfect for my home!

The other thing was an absolutely beautiful stoneware bowl with - what else - chickens on it! The bowl was handmade in Portugal. But not only is it pretty, it's durable! It's safe for the microwave, dishwasher, oven and freezer. I love pieces that are pretty yet practical!

Thank you, Secret Sister! These gifts are perfect!

Glad you like them!! Chickens are very hard to find, everything's roosters. I personally LOVE what's coming next...I'm on my way to the PO today :)
