I got an awesome coffee cup magnet with Seattle on it(where I was born) AND I have my whole kitchen done in coffee stuff! How cool is that?! I wanted to plant purple hyacinth bean vine this year AND Chinese Lanterns. I've also never grown Wonder Eggs. This is so great! Cheryl,how did you know just the right thing to send? I will get the next one ready to go....hmmm...who am I going to pick? Jacquie

ok, i've edited this to be the new seed tag post. here is the info that usually goes in the first post... and i'm going to need help rebuilding the tagged list, it got deleted by accident. thank you all for playing, this has been a great winter blah buster!!
Lets play Tag ... Rules and Regulations:
1 - if you want to play, pm me (Jiffymouse) with your address and the statement "i agree to play by the rules of seed tag". If you include your email address and phone number, i'd appreciate it, but it WILL NOT go on the master list. Also please pm dodge with your address.
2 - I will pm the master list of players and their adresses to each person on the list.
3 - dodge sends out the first set of seeds with the list of names. dodge gets the last set of seeds.
4 - cross off YOUR name when you get seeds and put the same list in the envelope you send out.
5 - if you don't like or don't need the seeds you get, you can pass them on to the next person. if you want them, please send a packet of quality seeds.
6 - home grown or commercial seeds are fine, as long as tgehre are a reasonable amout of seeds in the packet and they are current (nothing you found in a drawer from 1987 )
7 - package the seeds you send out properly. remember, sweet william and wonder egg (and seeds of that size/shape) do fine in a plain envelope with just a paper towel for padding (39 cents for mailing) but seeds like purple hyacinth bean and castor beans need a bubble envelope to make it safely.
8 - when you send seeds out, post that they are out (ie "watch for a bubble envelope") and PM me the name of the person you sent to.
9 - seeds MUST go out within 3 days of when you receive your seeds (ie if you get your seeds on tuesday, you should send the next seeds out by friday). but, you don't have to wait the 3 days, the next day, or even the same day is fine with us!
10 - IF for any reason someone can't send the seeds out, pm me and i'll pick up from that point, and go forward (i promise, i don't mind)
11 - if anyone puts something "extra" in the envelope, that is at their own discretion and in no way "obligates" the recipient to do the same (ie, if i put stickers or dodge puts 2 packs of seeds, the person we send to doesn't have to do anything other than send a pack of seeds to the next person)
12 - if someone sees us playing and would like to join in late, we can do that, just let us now. (in that event, i'll send an updated playlist to everyone by pm and announce it.)
13 - if we get members who would like to play but are not in the US or Canada, i will post additional instructions on how we will handle that.
14 - if i have forgotten anything or you have any more ideas, please let me know! AND i reserve the right to add to or modify the rules as appropriate.
have fun and lets play tag!

The same way I knew Mark's tag was coming to me. I'm psychic. Not really, but I've never seen chinese lanterns before and I thought they looked really neat. I had a lot of fun picking stuff for you. I had no idea you were born in seattle, how neat is that? Glad you liked what you got

I did get my tag and it was so awesome. I opened it in a parking lot as I was on my way out of town. I love all of the seeds... TONS of them, the great card and scrapbooking stuff!!! Lys and I enjoyed the Aero bar on our lil road trip and she was so excited about it.
Thank you so very much for it all.
Today I am sick but will work on getting my tag out tomorrow. And getting pics of what I got when I can find my camera... I hope I did not leave it up in Monroe.
Jiffy, do I need to print a new list?

I love it as well. Will have to get a pic of its new home. One of my Willy's is trying to climb up to touch it.
I have my tag all put together and addressed but I am so sick today. Going to try and get Dan to take it to the PO for me but if not then it will go out tomorrow for sure no matter how I feel.

I am so glad you liked it. I was also hoping the chocolate bar would make it there fine. Didn't you just love the bubbles? Avon had those butterflies at Christmas. In case any of you were looking for them. But not sure if just Avon Canada. Maybe if you know an Avonlady you might want to ask her (or him) if they bought any extras. They are beautiful.

i already used the garden stickers! i put one on the tag paper right beside dianes! i like the [mark was here& 2-?-07] thats so cool every ones putting a sticker with their names on it! dodge will love it when she ends up with it! bb is trying to steal the posty notes!
I couldn't think of anything else to put on[besides I didn't have many stickers], so I put on a blank label and wrote that..
I like the idea of the stickers too
