I bet Sue and Julia found it an unusual experience to say the least being on the customer side of the demo tables asking questions instead of always answering them. And if Sue has put on some weight we know who to blame for it.... that John and his brownies.<br />Sending hugs to all my fellow paddlers and you ANG, hope you are having a lovely day.<br />Love and crafty hugs<br />Norah (Glenochil)Glenharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03653116596107902711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5828747267314398886.post-75735324556729763072015-03-24T14:55:27.193+00:002015-03-24T14:55:27.193+00:00It is always so much fun to see what someone else ...It is always so much fun to see what someone else buys!

Naughty, Naughty. lol.<br />Any rate they sure look worth a try, even if I'm on the dreaded diet too.<br />That Nutella blond one sounds even yummier.<br />Lovely lot of goodies to add to your stash, and your glitter pasting is ace.<br />I must try some of this as I have been meaning to, and after seeing your lovely efforts I think my bank balance is going to suffer, as we are saving for hols.<br />I hope all is well in the Duck pond.<br />Lots of crafty love.

It looks nearly as lush as the Tiffin!!!<br />Looking forward to what treats you have in store with these goodies.
