[strawberrypony32]

I had a good mail day today! I got cards from @Recyclebella @Clown @strawberrypony32 and @BethMcBeth

I can't wait to try all these out!! It will be a couple weeks probably cause I do my grocery shopping on a monthly basis but I got all sorts of new things to try

Im so glad you like them and they arrived safely!

Yesterday I received a ton! Thanks @Recyclebella, @Clown, @BethMcBeth, and @strawberrypony32 View attachment 56724

Hehe of course I had to send an orange envelope! It would have felt like a crime not to! Oh no it seems like the card must have gotten damp or hot for smugdes and some of the apples to transfer ;-; Im so glad it didnt mess up your Applejack sketch or instructions! I cant wait to see how you like the pie! Its a special recipe from my Grandmas stash, my favorite to make!

Im realizing I hope everyones sketches made it okay? I didnt anticipate colors smudging. I also hope no one missed their sketches since theyre on the back!

Got a few more cards in yesterday’s mail from @Recyclebella and @strawberrypony32 ! Look at the adorable hand drawn dragon and perfect penmanship! They are lovely and I can’t wait to try the recipes!! Thank you both!

Got around to opening the last of the cards today after an off week and these recipes all sound so fun! Lots of cool recipes and I love the extras folks included. I especially appreciate this cute little cow @strawberrypony32 drew on one of mine! This was such a fun little exchange, gonna be sending out feedback today!

Update: Sent out feedback! I've got cards from everyone who mailed them and I've left feedback for everyone as well. This was my first swap, I'm glad it was such a nice one!

Hey all,
I'm really sorry for not getting mine out yet.
My kiddo is still sick, and they're doing more tests tomorrow (fourth time back to the dr. since this started), so I'll try to pop by and get cards out tomorrow.

Hey family's gotta be your first priority, and it's especially hard with sick little ones. I'm sure everyone understands and is happy to wait

Sorry. BUT. Mine are out, so at least they're coming.
I am the worst at doing anything on time. There's always a catastrophe or a Sickness, a hospitalization, an emergency, i swear. :/

Your little one is priority. I didn’t mean it negatively. I just hope that you and your family can be well.

I had to send them as packages, but the good news is they have est. delivery dates. So...people should get them tomorrow. Yay

 

[darklys]

Did anyone get them?

 

[GracefulSlumber]

I had a printout with substitution info for each envelope that didn't make it in.
But anyways. That is why i had to go in person to the PO...too thick/heavy for regular stanps.

Sorry for the delay. I am glad it came. They were due Friday. I was worried about no one reporting their arrival.

 

[strawberrypony32]

Got mine today!!! @darklys Did go all out omg!!! Thank you so much I didnt have any of the g1 stickers!! I loveeee the recipes. I will literally demolish any food with pecans so good!

 

[Gingerbread]

I have received all my cards darklys came and I thought ooo, clever, laminated for us messy cooks LOL thank you for all the stickers too! All the recipes sound delish!

Here are all my beautiful cards thank you everyone! I look forward to trying them all out *YUM* and look at the cute GIngerbreads from strawberrypony32 *love*

 

[Clown]

I got my mail from @darklys today but the mailbox apparently popped open in the rain so the envelope got wet! I haven't opened it yet but hopefully it won't be too damaged!

Update: oh my gosh so much stuff!! And what's more, nothing inside got wet! Seems like the recipe cards wouldn't have even been hurt if they did, what a lucky coincidence that this is the envelope that got rained on.

Im so glad you like them! I had so much fun making teeny tiny sketches for everyone!

Since everyone has gotten mine I thought I'd post some WIP pics I had initially texted to my besties? I wont post all the WIP pics tho, i cant remember if everyone has posted their own pics yet, dont wanna beat them to the chase!

I had to shake up my green ink pretty good! It had completely seperated but it was so good to pull out my calligraphy stuff again
I had originally planned to draw larger sketches but due to time I had to make them tiny ;^; but they ended up so cutee!! I made a set of cards for myself and drew an Ivy and Bowtie, I thought it would be fun to show! I did manage to get out a larger sketch of GingerBread that didnt get used since I switched to tiny. I thought you @Gingerbread Might wanna see it still!

Yay!

I was expecting the Argentina stickers to be wrecked when you said it got wet (they are so paper thin), but I am glad that everything survived

@strawberrypony32 , Gwenn loved your million dollar pie.

Then we made a new one where we did the lime juice and we used those honey roasted pecan salad topper packs? We also added 6 ounces of chopped cherries into the main mix. As decoration, more cherries and some roasted, salted pecans. It was delicious. Cherry-limeade-pecan with pineapple cream? SO good.
So far, yours is the only recipe we've tried, but we made it multiple times. I love how quick the prep is. Lynnix even tried a taste of it.

We're gonna try some more recipes soon. It's just been a rough month. Lynnix is still not well

 

[BethMcBeth]

@darklys Hope you and Lynnix are hanging in there. I got your recipes today! And I love the orange envelope, all the Applejack stickers inside and out!! Thank you so much!

I totally need to step up my card sending game on MLPTP!!
