I'm no *greener* than I was a year ago, but Happy Earth day, anyway!
Last night I opened my mailbox to find good mail from possibly the greenest place on earth (literally and figuratively). I won Elizabeth's contest for guessing the stats on little baby Kea before he was born, and I was well rewarded!
A little make-up bag with mango coconut lip balm. The card is sporting the flip flop stamp that embellished the large postage box everything was shipped in. If I lived in Hawaii I would totally own a flip flop stamp.
I couldn't believe that there were so many separate presents in the box! Each was wrapped in tissue and/or slipped into cute envelopes. Here is my plumeria flower pen and flip flop book mark.
I love popcorn, so how fun for me to try a new flavor! Hawaiian Hurricane Popcorn is seasoned with butter and seaweed, and blended with toasted rice crackers.
Pineapple Soap
A Hawaiian classic: chocolate covered macadamia nuts.
Thank you so much for a little piece of paradise, Liz!
you are BRILLIANT!! how do you continue to raise the bar in such creative ways!!
ReplyDeleteoh, i am very VERY tempted to go outside now and film a little carolina springtime for you!!
Cute video! It's fun to see you in action and hear your voice. I'm glad I'm not having a white Earth day, I'm so sick of the white stuff!
ReplyDeleteThat video was awesome (minus your white weather of course) I can't believe winter is dragging on SO long in your neck of the woods. I am glad that you were able to score some good "warm" mail at least.
ReplyDeleteI think if it snowed today at my house...I would cry. I need this warm weather right now! Love your video!
ReplyDeleteHey--there was a *little* bit of green peeking out from all that white! Happy Earth Day!
ReplyDeleteAnd, way to go on staying strong on standards (not that there is really another choice!). I'm sure the other mom appreciated your call--I know I would.
I'm so sorry your earth day is white! The sky here is white today, not sure what's in store....
ReplyDeleteWhat a great package from hawaii! The chocolate macadamias are making my mouth water!!
Oh my Goodness! I can't even imagine having that much snow still with May almost here.. Usually by now we are close to 100'. Such a cute idea with the video & I love all your goodies you won..
ReplyDeleteGreat SPT!
What's crazy is that a week ago we had no snow at all. Last Tuesday I went on a bike ride with my 9 year old!
ReplyDeletelove the video. your SPTs are always the most clever. and you know how much i love clever. :)
ReplyDeletea real official thank you will be on its way to you but i just had to say thanks as soon as i could for the good mail you sent me for my birthday. it arrived yesterday and i am thrilled with it!!! it is even better in person. now i just have to figure out how to keep it out of my little ones hands. she was equally thrilled and assumed they were for her. :) thank you thank you thank you!
Love the "white" green day!
ReplyDeleteWas it hard to get the snow off of the camera?
I cannot believe there is snow!!! It seems that it just doesn't stop up there. Hopefully you'll get more bike rides in shortly!
ReplyDeleteLove the video...so perfect for earth day! So sorry you're still playing in the snow...in APRIL!!! Crazy! Hang in there...the green will show through soon, hopefully!
ReplyDeleteYep, I would doubt global warming too with all that SNOW in April!
ReplyDeleteCrazy weather. Cool good mail!
That is some seriously good Mail! And your video definitely made me smile. I have NO excuse for not believing in global warning, however...
ReplyDeleteI loved the video! I can't believe how much snow you have. Ours was all melted two days later.
ReplyDeleteI would love to live in Hawaii, or at least visit. A friend of mine from high school moved there to work as a teacher at a private school, I believe. She has since moved back to Montana. I don't know if I would be able to move back!
I'm no "greener" this year either!
ReplyDeleteLove the good mail! I love sending and receiving it...so much fun!
I love it! Seriously, it has been so cold this spring. But isn't that part of global warming? Well at least according to the Day After Tomorrow :).I love seeing videos of people. Hooray for good mail.
ReplyDeleteLove the video! Definitely Frozen Earth day for you, though. Nice though to have some tropical mail sent your way!
ReplyDeletehey that is such a cute video, i cannot believe all the snow....wow. I think you are soo spontaneous@!
ReplyDeleteWow snow for green earth day! What a great package to receive. I just love chocolate covered macadamias!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad it made it to you. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI love your video. So fun to put a voice with the wonderfulness that is Barb.
You've done it again, Barb! So clever, I love it -- you are inspiring. If I had as much cleverness in my little pinkie... anyway, just don't stop!
ReplyDeleteFun fun mail from Hawaii!
Cute video. Love the good mail too!
ReplyDeleteGreat video. Happy White Day!
ReplyDeleteI so hope that you guys don't push that storm this way to our 22C degree weather! You are so cute Barb! Love the little snow ball at the end!
ReplyDeleteI was really annoyed on Monday with the snow, but I'm getting over it. Great video.
ReplyDeleteGood job on feeling lonely:-) I felt that a lot as a teenager. I'm getting a little taste right now - already. Tough when your 5 yr old is sad she can't do gymnastics with her friends when she is at church. But it's worth it.
