Today I got my Frugal Divas swap from Michelle! Thank you very much! Coolies are a hot commodity around here and I've always wanted to try those dry clean things. How'd you know dh was addicted to hot sauce?

I also got my Sewing Club prize from Dee! Is that the bag from the tutorial? It's beautiful! I want to make the basket, chair arm thing and wall hanging from the pattern. I'm going to put the measuring tape somewhere I can find it next time dd decides to hide the one I have out! Thank you so much!

I also got my Pop Tart, Thing 1 and Thing 2 T-shirts, they're pretty cute. We rented The Cat in The Hat to watch tonight.

Yep, that's the bag from the tutorial. I'm glad you liked it! Sounds like you have some sewing planned.

Dee, I have a lot of things PLANNED! Lol

Melissa, a coolie is a thing that goes on a pop can to help keep it cold. What do you call them?

A can wrap? You can make those too Karen.

Thanks Dee! I'll have to try that! I'm going to figure out how to add some elastic or binding tape to the bottom to keep the cans from sliding out. An absorbant type fabric would probably be good, too, since cans sweat so much.

What a wonderful mail day for you Karen!!!! Enjoy all your goodies!!!!

I am glad you got it Karen. I wasn't sure what to add for the freebies. I thought with you working that you could use the dry cleaner sheets and then something for you to keep you soda or water cold.

Sounds like you had a great mail day!!
