I participated in two blogger gift exchanges last year!
First up Leigh organized a Canadian blogger favourite things gift exchange. Kristin and I were paired up! As soon as Kristin found out we were exchange buddies she e-mailed to ask if we could swap our gifts a bit later so we could meet up in person when she was visiting Calgary for the holidays. Kristin and I met up at the Blue Star Diner for lunch after my 20 mile run and Heather and Zoey joined us a bit later on. The food was delicious (lamb burger…so good) and it was great to catch up with Kristin and Heather in person. Kristin gifted me with some delicious treats from Quebec – the most delicious chocolate ever and a bottle of Quebec wine!
I also participated in Courtney’s Christmas Sock Swap Exchange! My package came from Lora the Crazy Running Girl. I got the cutest red knee high Christmas socks.
Plus my socks came stuffed with all of this great stuff! Tons of peppermint GU (which I’m running low on so I appreciate getting stocked up on it), lemon tea nuun, citrus nuun, peppermint Chapstick, sweat pink shoelaces and Swiss Miss hot chocolate! Thank you so much for all the great stuff Lora!!
Thanks to my blogger friends for spoiling me! Did you participate in any Christmas gift exchanges?
I got some of that peppermint Gu for Christmas as well – but haven’t tried it yet. Part of me fears it will taste like toothpaste…
It was great to meet up with you! And if anyone is thinking about the Blue Star Diner – the Apple Grilled Cheese is also a winner.
(i guess I should really blog about my great gift from you…oops)
YAY glad you received it and are enjoying it! I hope it didn’t come too late after the holidays 🙂
Love both of the packages that you received 🙂 Where is the Blue Star Diner? I’ve never heard of it
You got some wonderful gifts from the blogger gift exchanges!
