    I feel terrible that I'm so behind this month. Really, truly, I promise you my Secret Sister that your package will go out tomorrow night. I don't think I've ever cut it so close to the end of the month before.

    I think you're in good company this month. Mine only went out yesterday

    I'm late, too!

    Me, too. Mine was sent yesterday -- hope it is all worth the wait! Glad we are all in good company being late on this one!

    Oh, phew, now I don't feel so bad! I too, am running late this month and am still waiting on an item to be delivered to my house before I can send everything out. To my SS; I haven't forgotten, honestly!

    Ah, but it was totally worth the wait!!

    I just got back from a whirlwind trip to Boston to find my SS package waiting for me. SJCzar - you did a great job! I felt like I was taking a trip down memory lane...I'm sure you don't know this, but I lived in Milwaukee for a couple of years in my early teens, so the city themed stuff was great! I love the 'bubbler' magnet! And since beer is so popular here in the PNW, too...I'm sure the beer related recipes will come in very handy. I laughed out loud at the note in the book, too. When I moved from Milwaukee to Boston, my history teacher made a comment about how they must do more in Milwaukee than just drink beer (I'd gotten an A on my first test) - I said "yeah, they play baseball!" (That was the year the Brewers were in the world series!!) I will say that I truly miss brats though.

    Oh, and I started my day today with the cashew vanilla creme coffee and it was AWESOME!!

    Thanks so much for making my day! It was wonderful!!

    So when do we get to figure out who all the SS's are? As soon as everyone has their packages, we must fess up!

    Were you mine? I am not home so I am not sure the city on the return label is in your county. Hmmmm.... You're a vet and you included my puppies? Maybe?

    Hmmm....ME?

    Very possible!
    I think I am the only one in Sedro-Woolley on this forum! Everyone else here doesn't ride a bike... they drive great big pickups with gun racks and yell at cyclists!
    So... I confess -- it was me! Did I do ok keeping it "mild" on your dogs' tummies? I'd hate to cause pancreatitis in a poor little Schnauzer! They are SO sensitive!

    Wow, that was sneaky it took me a week to figure out! Thanks again for the package, I adore my little pink bike keychain. My dogs have been enjoying the treats and they seem to be mild enough. Sounds like you live around some of the people we have here, ugh.

    That is too funny that you are actually a former Milwaukean, and I got you for a Secret Sister.

    I hope you still have fond memories our the city. Soon it will be one of the best times to be here in Milwaukee - SUMMERFEST. I'm sure if you lived here as a teenager you must have spent some time there.

    I got my package last week and it was wonderful! Already wore my cool socks and love them. I'm a bit of a sock-oholic, so that was just perfect for me. The lotion smells wonderful and the shot block and beans will come in handy when my dang shoulder heals (or gets shot up with some cortisone) and I can finally get back on my bike!

    My package is sitting here beside me and will go out in the mail tomorrow. Sorry for the extreme delay!

    Posse- Don't feel bad, mine was only mailed Friday. It had been ready to go since last Sunday but I had a hard time getting by the post office!

    Looks like a lot of us were delayed this month. In case a package headed for me is still waiting on somebody's desk, you might want to save some money on the postage. I'll be headed to California in less than 2 weeks. I might get the package sooner and you could definitely send it cheaper than if you mailed it now all the way to Norway. You could PM me for the address to my moms place. Or PM my sister (Trek420). Or go via Makbike if you want to keep your ID secret.
    Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.
