Thankful Thursday
I had a lovely surprise in the mail yesterday, for which I'm very thankful--the package of cards and treats I had won from Pia on her blog (The World According to Pia) earlier this fall.
For any of you who aren't familiar with her blog, she has wonderful posts that include her photography, recipes, Loaf Dog, occasionally her cats, and her travels. She can make even the ordinary seem exquisite and I really enjoy the glimpse into her life in Stockholm.
So a huge thank you, Pia, for the wonderful gift package! Normally I don't win anything on blog contests, so it was particularly special. :-)
Please do visit her blog and say hello!

The greeting card included in the package
The photo cards she had made -- hard to see, but the upper left one is a picture of her footwear. Pia is known for shoe photos!
The book marks and business cards she included, again made from her own wonderful photos.
The mitten garland and chocolate she included. She's a wonderful craftsperson too! And that chocolate was salted on the outside, so had a fabulous taste! Of course I ate it all right away. LOL.

These cards are wonderful! Wow! I'm going to go check out Pia's blog. Plus, I have a friend who's mother is Swedish, so I would also like to see life in Stockholm.
I just tried salty dark chocolate, and it sure was good.
I had checked out Pia's blog before and liked it a lot too.

the liquorice chocolate with seasalt is one of my favourite candy ever. from chokladfabriken (the chocolate factory) here in stockholm which serves the best hot cocoa in town and sells all sorts of their own made chocolate too of course. this piece makes a great little sweet-tooth gift i think:)
since the contact info on the different business cards have changed i'm using them as little feelgood-cards mostly, with glimpses from my life and with motifs that hopefully make the recipient happy, feeling inspired on a glum day etc
any questions on the pictures, please let me know.
and also, thank you commenters forsweet comments!
