My fave five this week include:
1. Homemade tuna. One of our neighbors gave us a basket filled with apples, pears, dates, and a jar of her delicious homemade tuna as a thank-you gift for picking up their mail and feeding their sheep while her husband and she were on their vacation.
2. Haagen-Dazs ice cream bars, especially the vanilla & dark chocolate ones. One of my favorite treats!
3. Secret Sister Reveal Party at church. I had a great time at the party last night. My secret sister turned out to be my secret sister :). The one I had prayed for is actually the same one who had been praying for me.
4. Tulips. One of my favorite flowers. My (no longer) secret sister gave me a pot of beautiful red tulips. It's now sitting on my front porch.
5. My 3 current fabulous giveaways: Win 2 certificates for What's In the Bible? DVDs by Phil Vischer, Win 500 custom made business cards, Win a copy of Start Here by Alex and Brett Harris.
Oh those Haagen-Dazs ice cream bars sound wonderful!! And I am also a tulip fan.......love all those spring flowers. :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a terrific week! I love baskets of goodies. What a great idea to do this as a thank-you gift. I like Tulips also, but I never seem to get them planted in time! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteThose Haagen Dazs bars are yummy. I haven't had one in forever. I may have to make a special trip for one this weekend. :v)
ReplyDeleteTulips are my favorite flower too. Love all the colors.
I wasn't expecting to hear a "gift ...for feeding the sheep!" That was kind of fun to hear! I was expecting the word "dog" or something. =D ha.
ReplyDeleteYes yes to those Haagen Dazs bars! ;)
Home made tuna! That sounds so much better then what I buy in a can :0)
ReplyDeleteTulips really are a wonderful flower.
It's been years since I've participated in a Secret friend adventure. Glad you had a good time.
Home made tuna -- I'd never heard of anyone packaging their own, but evidently it's possible!
ReplyDeleteI love the Secret Sister program at church. We have our reveal in December. It has happened a few times that two secret sisters had each other without ever guessing they did -- such fun!
I love tulips.
I also like the j. Wilbur Chapman quote in your sidebar -- I might borrow it, if that's ok.
I haven’t done secret sisters in a long time, but I remember it was always fun and encouraging. That’s neat that you and your secret sister were each other! I love tulips too.
ReplyDeleteSecret Sisters are fun to have and what a nice "twist" that you both had each other's names. That made it extra-special, indeed. I LOVE the Haagen-Daz ice cream bars. Now I'm hungry for one.
ReplyDeleteWhat a terrific week! I am so pleased to see spring arrive. Tulips are my favorite.
ReplyDeleteGreat week!

Any week with Haagen Das and tulips is a good one!
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend.
There is nothing better than home canned tuna. I'm going to go enter your giveaways.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend.
p.s. check out the giveaway on my blog
Wow, Hagen Daaz ice cream bars! Yes, they could be on my fave list every week.
ReplyDeleteHave a happy spring equinox weekend!
