My own personal preference has always been the cappuccino froth colour that Pilau went. They look ethereal when the light catches them. Though I'll adore whatever Carrot turns out to be I know.

Brianna.

Funnily enough it's Dwellars making me happy right now (along with Carrot's imminent arrival:P).

I've had my head up my arse the last week or so, so haven't been on here with news and photos etc. But...

The other day a parcel arrrived and my neighbour signed for it as I was out. When he gave it to me he asked me 'what've you been buying now?'...I have no idea, I said. I can't remember ordering anything...

So, I opened it thinking maybe I had ordered the puppy products I thought I'd decided against, after all. Nope! An early birthday gift from Sheldon!

Then another parcel arrived the day after (I think) which has an American return address on it. I haven't opened it, in case it is birthday related.

Today, amongst my mail, was an envelope from an American sender. I almost didn't open it. Almost left it, as I felt sure it was a birthday card. But then curiosity got the better of me and I thought, well, it's ok to open a card early right?

It wasn't a birthday card. It was a Valentine's card....from Carrot. Whoever organised the card on Carrot's behalf ( I think I know...I think I recognise the style of card ;p) had done a lovely message and inside was a pic of Carrrot.

Sometimes being a dwellar is just about the bestest thing.


I'm still up to my eyeballs in decorating and carpetting etc (carpet fitters coming tomorrow!) but with big smile on my face

(incidentally: Gnomey decided to stick around to see what my room looks like with new carpet. He'll be setting off on the next leg of his journey very very soon!!)

I haven't been following the home improvement process. Will the carpet match the drapes?

Naturally

I received a wonderful Valentine's Card from Sundae!! I love it! XOXO. It really brightened my day

It's Raining.

Men?

Halleluah.

What sauces now?

White.

That's terrible Zen!

FTFY :eek:
