(I have other zaps to acknowledge, but this one was so unexpected and amazing that I had to post it asap.)

So today was not only my first day of work post-vacation, it included torrential rain, stupid traffic, and a late-afternoon meeting. Toto, we are so not in Oz anymore. Ha. But there were two boxes awaiting me when I got home, one being the souvenir box I shipped from the Anaheim PO on Saturday. The other, however, was not the box I had Disney ship.

It was from NutMeg! Buttttttt ... what on earth could Sarah have sent me? (And why? Goofy girl.)

So I open the box and find a high-quality envelope (seriously ... It felt like an invitation to the ball) and two parcels wrapped in bee-yoo-tee-ful tea-themed wrapping paper.

I opened the envelope first and found this extremely lovely card:

(I'm sorry ... I went to Catholic school, so I know Good Penmanship. And this is Fantastic Penmanship.)

So then I had to get the scissors and cut the wrapping paper off the parcels, because it was toooooo pretty to rip apart.

In the smaller box, I found these:

SHUT THE FRONT DOOR. Do you see how amazing these look?!?! I don't even want to eat them, they look so good. (Although since Sarah very thoughtfully noted the ingredients, and I am not yet afflicted by food allergies, I will be hoovering them in an undignified fashion soon. I should break even on growing larger and smaller, right?)

In the larger box was this:

Wuuuutttttt. This is amazing. And see how it says to check the back? Here's what I found:

It fluffing SINGS! Sarah sent me a beautiful, thoughtful framed piece of sheet music from one of my favorite movies that PLAYS MUSIC.

I have a dedicated Live Action Cinderella display case, and you can bet your boots that I will be rearranging everything in it to give this a prominent place. (Side note: The old lady across the aisle and two rows up from me on the plane yesterday started watching this movie, and I was totally creeping it over her shoulder. And then she shut it off partway through and I was like, WTFluff!!! Philistine!)

Saaaaarrrraaahhhhhhh I have no idea why you decided I was worthy of your majestic zapping skills but these gifties are insane and I love them and I am so, so thankful to you for bestowing them on me! <3

Beware the one who zaps back. She zaps slowly sometimes (ha) but she tries to make it count.

:HUGS: :HUGS: :HUGS:

What?! You're back already?! Man that was fast, I thought you were still there!

Well Happy birthday to you and welcome back home, that sure was a wonderful surprise to get welcomed to.
 
I just realized that I spelled ingredients incorrectly......

Anywaaaaay, let's just pretend it's a really misshapen "e" and focus instead on wishing you a happy birthday! :D I'm so glad that the package got to you safely (with the cookies intact, haha), and that you like the gifts! (And the wrapping paper too! I was looking for something Alice-themed and thought it was so pretty! I'm glad you agree lol.) <3

PS: Full disclosure, I've never actually seen the live-action Cinderella movie. Whoops! I just had those blue flower petals in my craft supplies and they reminded me of the pics I've seen of her dress in the film, so inspiration struck haha. I promise I'll add it to my Netflix DVD queue!
 
Beautiful!!! I wish we could post videos on the forum (like via tapatalk) so we could get a sample of the song!

Congrats and happy birthday!!

Girl you know damn well I will totally text that video of it in action to anyone who wants to see it, lol. I worked way too hard and am way too proud of it not to show it off. xD
