Wow, what a great package you got all the way from Australia. Is that a tea towel that has the Christmas pudding recipe on it? So glad you and your friends decided to join us

You are welcome Deb, so very pleased you loved it....now google "Tim Tam Slam" and try that with a Tim Tam....an Aussie favourite, fun but messy !! Although I sent you minature Tim Tams, so it might not work!

Tiggrr, that is a pudding bag, a bag to hold your leftover pudding.

That's so cool!

I thought my package would have arrived this week for myh swap partner too.
Hopefully it didn't miss it's flight out of Australia.

Fingers crossed that it arrives safely for my swap partner soon

It hasn't yet, but I'm sure it will. You wait the longest for the most anticipated things right?

Hi shaggykitten

You're right....the swap is always exciting- waiting for the packages to be received

So does everyone have there shopping done? House decorated? Presents wrapped? Baking done? Menu set?
Gosh hard to believe there are only a few days left before the big day...

I looked up the TimTam slam. We will definitely try it! I haven't opened the package yet - I am saving them - maybe we will try it Christmas eve! I used my new apron tonight when I baked Christmas cookies

I didn't realize that was a cloth to wrap your Christmas pudding in - very neat! I love how it has a recipe on it

[**Jubes**]

I hope the package I sent hasn't gone astray...........it really should have arrived by now. I'm starting to get worried that it might not arrive before Christmas

House is decorated to the rafters, but have some shopping to finish!! Time is flying by.

I looked up the Tim Tam Slam, too--looks good!!

[TLu]

Shopping is done, hooray!! Cookie exchange tomorrow evening. We have friends who offered to deep fry a turkey for us Christmas Eve morning, so we haven't decided yet to just have it with our tamales that night or have Mexican food Christmas day. Ahh, decisions decisions I saw Tim Tams for the first time ever here in Georgia, I just might have to try that recipe myself. If I can hide them from DH, he can sniff out a goody from ten miles away
Have a great day everyone!

Apparently mail takes a little bit to get to us. I keep checking every day. I'll let you know as soon as I get it
I hope you get yours soon too! I am excited to find out if you like all the Canadian goodies I sent

My husband is on afternoon shift this week and I have asked him to listen out for the doorbell. Hopefully soon
