From Hawaii via Victoria

It's so exciting to receive a package in the mail ...

this one arrived from Victoria, BC

beautifully wrapped and filled with Hawaiian chocolate,

Murchie's Hot Chocolate and Tea,

chocolate from Roger's (that I immediately regretted sharing with the farmer),

a beautiful Valentine scarf,

a Victoria Sketchbook by Robert Amos from Munro's Book Shop

and a card by the same artist that was hand written by a special blog friend

from Pondside.

If you have never visited this blog - you must!

She writes beautifully and from the heart.

I was picked as the winner of these treats on one of Pondside's

recent posts about her trip to Hawaii

(a someday destination we wish to visit).

So, on this beautiful frosty February morning I am enjoying

a cuppa hot chocolate and the last few of those delicious Hawaiian treats!

Thank you so much for picking me Pondside - what a wonderful surprise!

We are enjoying the sketchbook of Victoria
 and reminiscing about the places we have visited there.
One of the most beautiful places in our country!

Till next time - dreaming of Hawaii .....
