Oh, and in the same mail box was a package from my great blogging friend Tracey at Carpenter Creek. Tracey makes soap from sheep milk. Well, several months ago, she asked all her readers to name her latest soap creation. I suggested “Ewe Da Man,” and that was good enough to win a bar of her soap.
Today we received a hand-packed, hand-taped package with my winning bar of soap. Not only that, there was a bonus bar in there, too, called “Pony Espresso” and boy! does it smell good! Right away I e-mailed her and ordered more bars for Christmas presents.

I love to win, and when it’s unexpected it’s just a whole lotta fun, isn’t it?
