Similar vibes to Chevalier and Towles and just delightful. :)

Comment: Oh, Meredith, your trip to Africa sounded wonderful! As I read your note, I almost felt as though I was there with you. Thank you so much for this very special swap. I love the bird and the little girls too. Because of health issues I'm not able to travel any more, but my daughter-in-law is an exec. at a zoo and I've been blessed to have some close encounters with a few zoo animals. A giraffe even licked my cheek or, as I like to say, gave me a kiss. Definitely not a safari, but still an exciting experience.
Response: You're welcome. Thank you for the lovely comment.

Comment: Meredith, Thanks for all the beautiful flakes and the wonderful little card set!!! I love it! Also- I may have sent you the same tiny Sakura card and envie. I can’t remember, but it’s not a weird regift if I did. I had some of those and had one left… But I honestly can’t remember if I put it in your envie or Patties… he he!
Response: You're welcome. I think the tiny sakura cards arrived in a ZenPop box. I ordered a clearance box before I started a subscription. Now I'm picky - I order boxes one at a time, after I know what's in them. Next time I'll aim for something that's more unique!

Comment: Thanks for the super neat postalette! I've never seen one like that before:) I have several peanuts postalettes, but they are getting harder to find for a reasonable price as I think most are considered vintage at this point. Thanks for the butterfly card too, I have just started reading more hard-copy books and I think that will be my new bookmark:) When I first joined the Army I was hoping for a posting to Germany but things didn't work out that way, it's strange where life can take us sometimes! Hope you are well, wishing you safe travels on those hard-earned vacations!!I
Response: You're welcome. I bought the set of postalettes ages ago and rarely send one. I still have a few left! Postcrossing postcards I receive are my bookmarks, especially in cookbooks.

Comment: This is a Beautiful postcard! Thank you! Getting dark earlier than in So Cal has been a challenge for us moving to Idaho. Dark at 5pm! and I too think about bed earlier and earlier!
Response: You're welcome. I thought the challenge of shorter days might resonate with you. In the summer it's still light after 9am. Are you taking vitamin D? It helps in the fall when days are getting shorter, until the spring when they are longer.

Comment: Thanks for the beautiful postcard and the postmark is gorgeous! Not sure if you have seen it on Ur local mail. It's a snow globe with a house in it with the caption happy holidays. It's interesting that the art museum sells postcards from Sweden. So happy to receive one.😊
Response: You're welcome! I've seen the snow globe postmark. I've also received US mail with a postmark of palm trees, a Christmas tree, and Santa's sleigh and reindeer, on a card from snowy Maine! No palm trees there!

My school system does diagramming in 8th grade, so students should know it by the time they get to me in 9th, but I don't ask it of them. I started doing grammar coloring last year, and I taught mine passive voice and parallelism. Yay!
Response: You're welcome. When I'm building websites I change passive voice to active voice in articles people give me. I had an English teacher who said if it's passive voice, find a new verb. I think passive voice is useful when talking about a problem and not blaming anyone.

Comment: What an incredible trip!!! I love the cards and in particular the elephant one. It's gorgeous. For a while I watched Wild Earth safari live stream on youtube. They do sunrise and sunset streams. Incredible guides and awesome views of the animals. It was interesting to learn how these animals survive in the wild not to mention witness survival of the fittest. I find observing the water holes to be most interesting and find it amazing that the animals pay almost no attention to the safari jeeps out and about. Of course not as good as in person I'm sure. Many thanks for the great Happy Mail.
Response: You're welcome! One of the women in our tour group was a self-proclaimed wildlife show junkie. She had lots of questions for our guide and we were all the richer for her questions. Our game drives were at sunrise and sunset because that's when the animals are most active. Yes, an incredible trip - and not as extravagant as I thought it would be.

So glad your trip went so well - sounds wonderful! And thank you for joining my swap! : )

Comment: Thank you for the postcard, Meredith! It’s certainly a random postcard, but I do sort of like it. I had contemplated purchasing the LEGO postcards, but the reviews were so mixed and most seemed negative, so I didn’t go through with it. I might have to rethink that decision! Happy New Year!

I love the washi tape you decorated it with. So pretty! One of the other residents here said it was sitting downstairs. I am thinking that it ended up in the wrong mailbox and that person put it up at the mailboxes. I was there last on Saturday and it was not there. The mail carriers are known to deliver mail into the wrong boxes here. I am so grateful for some honest people that got this to me. Thank you so much for the lovely letter and the really nice post cards too. If I could I would give you a lot more hearts I would!!!!

I'll never have enough money, to ever get to any overseas country. Take care & I hope you're staying well.
Response: You're welcome. I'm glad you enjoyed hearing why I chose those particular postcards.

Comment: Thanks for the crazy car crash photo! I wonder what even happened there! It's so nice that you read through my profile, although I wouldn't have minded an Adventure Time PC either ;) I've only lived in the desert the last 11 years, before which I was from the midwest, but I've always loved nautical stuff. I think I'm just a big water lover! I have a half sleeve on one of my legs of a nautical scene I was inspired to get because of a song I love, "Wooden Heart" by Listener. Happy swapping!
Response: You're welcome. Bridges fascinated my dad. On road trip vacations we made side trips to see important bridges (there's a Y-shaped bridge in RI) and also a special trip to NYC when the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge opened. Later I learned there's a correspondence between liking bridges and people who never learned to swim. Dad never learned to swim. That's why I asked about the desert and your nautical interests.

Our oldest son went to college through the ROTC program and did his explosive ordnance training in Virginia - we loved attending his graduation there! Thankfully he never had to go into combat and I can only imagine the things your nephew has seen/had to do with three tours in Afghanistan! Again my thanks to him for his service to our country! Wishing you and yours all the best and please stay safe! Hugs and Happy Swapping! ;)
Response: I'm glad you like the postcard. In his first tour, as 2LT, he had patrols where he'd read because he couldn't socialize. I sent him a Kindle after asking a question on Amazon about how it'd work in those conditions. Lots of ex mil said great! Tom was thrilled because he was running out of reading material. Now he always has an iPad at hand.

It's very sweet of you to match stickers to my random likes. :) I have a magnet board next to my desk where I display my favorite cards/postcards/drawings I get in swaps, and your contributions are taking up a good percentage of it now. :) I adore this weird little postcard! Also, french toast from homemade bread?!! That needs to happen here. I see baking in my future.
Response: No drawings from me! I learned years ago that I can't draw and then recently that hand/eye coordination - like catching a ball and drawing - never developed because I didn't get glasses until I was 9 and hand/eye coordination and peripheral vision develop before age 5. I'm glad you like the big sticker flakes.

Comment: I had already checked my mail for the day but I remembered that Informed Delivery said I was receiving a package too. I checked tracking and they delivered it after 5pm, which is rare that they didn't just drop it off during my usual mail delivery time. Anyways thank you for such a big package! The lettersets you sent, I don't think I have ever seen them before! And I was an avid letterset collector at one point. Thank you so much for such an amazing swap.
Response: You are so welcome! I had fun putting it together just for you. I happened to have that lovely cardboard mailer from an Etsy order for postcards and it was perfect for sending letter sets. So I did!

Comment: DOTS...LOL...this swap was so much fun! Your envelope was decorated so cute. I actually Saved most of the washi off the envelope onto a card to use in my journal. I enjoyed your letter very much. I like kawaii from different places and it doesn't have to be "branded". Thank you for everything. Your pizza sounds delicious. I like paneer and tikka AND most all Indian foods. I like FOOD period...ahahaha.... My family has grown to enjoy my experiments in cooking after watching Youtube videos. :) Thanks again...take care :)

Comment: Thank you so much for being my first ever received swap on here, Meredith!! It was such a joy to see your letter in my mailbox!

I don't think I own any of the packs of the stickers you sent me so thank you so much for expanding my collection! And your letter! It was really cool to read about how you got into kawaii, you're a really great story teller! I can't wait to hear more from you if we ever swap again (: Much love and well wishes <3

Comment: Thank you so much for the spring washi treats. The washi on your envelope was divine, too. I'm so ready for spring. There are lots of Bradford pears and redbuds abloom, but I'm still waiting for the dogwoods. Stay safe!
Response: You're so welcome. I have all too many rolls of washi tape and I love sharing. I have tiny heuchara leaves; a few scilla in bloom, heralding a carpet in the next week; crocuses in bloom; and tulips are almost 6 inches high. No sign of daffodils. I planted a Minnesota redbud last year and can't wait to see what that does. I'm looking forward to my many hellebore blooming soon.

Cannot believe that you had an issue with your electricity we well! Glad that you got yours resolved and settled. Mine is still not settled. He has quit taking the water for sure because we caught him stealing it and it appears he has replumbed his house. We have not found the pipe yet nad are going to bring in a backhoe and dig up the yard it appears now to find it! His brothers built the house and put that pipe somewhere so no one would find it. Ive overpaid on water bills and feel he should have to pay the money back. I think my neighbor is frightened because he knows we know he has been taking our water. So this is not resolved yet and I need to find the pipe! Thanks for letting me know that you have been there too! I dont feel so alone. People have no idea how it can be with people stealing from their neighbors and thinking they can get away with it! Have a wonderful holiday this weekend! We celebrate Labor Day here. You might not there! It is the end of summer in most years but due to Covid 19 everything is just off! Bye for now!
Response: You're welcome for the postcard. I feel your pain! It took months to resolve the electricity problem and I felt sorry for the woman who didn't realize it was happening. She had a big bill she couldn't afford.

Comment: Hi Meredith! Thank you ever so much for your wonderful note and wonderful PC's! I enjoyed looking through all & your dream vacation stamps! Well, I hope it all turns out great for you, with the landscaping goings on there. I didn't know there was such a thing as a dessert tester in book club. But sounds like fun to me. As I love to bake. But only in the cooler months though. Because our summers here are brutal, heat wave after heat wave, ugh! Don't dare use our AC's. As the electric bill would be so dang high & I'm talking $150 something for 1 month. We just can't afford that, since we ( my husband & I are on SSD. Well, Have loads of fun baking.
Response: You're welcome. We only turn on the oven when it's cool outside - and to make dessert for bookclub. We turn on the AC when temps are above 90, not so often here in MN but more often now with global warming. And my spouse keeps the thermostat at 85° so it only takes the edge off the heat. Today it's breezy and cool after thunderstorms last night.

Comment: Thanks for the great wanderlust postcards, Meredith. I too am yearning for my first trip to Africa. I've been having dreams about Zanzibar, even though I've never been there. And my last trip to Japan was even before yours, but I always think I'll get back there to see more of it. I highly recommend the road trip to Alaska. I did it in the 70's when much of the Al-Can Highway was still unpaved, camping out each night. The friend I invited to come along never left Alaska & he & his wife send me a ticket every few years to come up for more exploring. It's stunningly gorgeous. Nowadays my biggest adventure is a trip out to my curbside mailbox!
Response: Thank you for joining my swap. I'm glad you share the spirit of the swap. Maybe, when Canada is open again, I can make a road trip north to Winnipeg and west on the Trans-Canada Highway, then north to Alaska.

Comment: Love, love, love the cards. Thank you for great choices. I too, have a fear of not being able to fulfill a swap theme. I have had swaps lost in the mail and no replacement cards. Bummer!
Response: You're welcome. I hadn't thought about that getting lost in the mail - it rarely happens to me.

Life has been so rough lately (I know it is for everybody) but this really, really brought a smile to my face and warms my heart so very much.

Response: You're welcome. Only so much one can say on a postcard. My dad was one of the original scientists at JPL. When he was in graduate school, DOD offered him a research position or they would draft him.

Comment: Gorgeous envie and wonderful cards, Meredith. Thank you so much. Having just poured the price of a new car into my mouth for serious dental work I can mostly ooh & aah over boxed sets such as those from which you culled the cards you sent. So it's great to get cards from someone with similar tastes. I did splurge on the Ex Libris set though & the card you sent is one of my favorites. Now I can send one & keep one! Hope you do go the way of native landscaping. As a long time member of a native plant society and the former co-owner of a native plant nursery I'm a bit of a zealot.
Response: You're welcome. Last night I started compiling my plant list, including invasive plants. Because we are in an old neighborhood we have landscaping plants like honeysuckle shrubs now classified as invasive.

Comment: Thank you very much for your note and postcards. I’ll have to check out that baking website as I can’t send what I bake into work with my husband now! Downsized recipes would be great! It is so cold here still - scraping my car windows even this morning! Then a huge turnaround tomorrow when Spring finally shows up! I would’ve been in Italy and Switzerland this week. Maybe next year lol! Have tickets for Tokyo late fall. Here’s hoping! I hope you can take your trips too!! xxx
Response: You're welcome. That website helped me downsize some recipes. Now I'm testing homemade mug cake mixes to send in a box to my in-laws because that's the closest I'll get to baking for them.

I take hiking/camping trips up there several times a year!! Thank you for all my fun goodies!!

Comment: Thank you so much for the 3 awesome PC's for the swap based on books. I so love them! Like you, I get most of my PC's from Amazon. I wish I had looked more closely at the one PC selection I ordered. I didn't realize till too late, the kitty cat PC's I ordered 3 weeks ago, were international. I still haven't gotten them & they keep saying, I won't get them till May 22nd through June 15th, ugh ! So, I had to go & order other kitty cat PC's, so I could have them trade. Which I got those last week. Ok, Time to stop jabbering, lol ! Take care.
Response: You're welcome. Yesterday I received a box of postcards I preordered on April 9th. I'm still waiting for a box I ordered in March because the publisher keeps pushing out the publication date. I'm glad I can get them. An independent bookstore where I buy boxes of postcards is closed now, for the duration.

Comment: Always a pleasure to get mail from you, Meredith, & this swap was no exception. Enjoyed your note (on the intriguing art card) as well as your thoughtful selection of postcards. Two (count 'em 2) Highwaymen cards! Be still my heart. I've met all the surviving members of the group. They're still painting, but their current output lacks the charm of the the stuff they did when they were hungrier. Love the Steinberg too & the wonderful B&W photo at El Morocco. And while I'm envious of your getting to experience the Cirque du Soleil show, I'm delighted that you shared the cool Beatles letter paper with me. Thanks for everything, It was a special swap.

I'm glad your husband is done with his surgery. I had exactly the same thing. Truly. 5 hrs under the knife, 27 gallstones in my bile duct. The surgeon said he never saw so many. A couple of weeks later, another woman came in with 24 stones in her bile duct. Very unusual. I wish him a speedy recovery. Joy

Comment: Thanks for the great selection of post cards ànd note. Looking at your profile I could see why Minnesota would seem a bit grim, especially this winter. We have just had a few days of summer here 20c in the day -2 at night. Let's hope it's not the only summer we will have this year. Downside is that I've never had hay fever in February before! I find many tourist cards a bit twee. Much of Scotland is very beautiful but there is a limit to the number of cards showing heather, kilts and Highland cows you want in your collection! Take care, best wishes

I grew up in the country and your description of watching the corn grow took me back to that. I miss it. I know a lot of people would think "You miss watching corn grow???" lol But it's the whole atmosphere of being close to nature. Not that I'm in the city now or anything, but it's a suburban subdivision, so sometimes it feels a bit crowded to me. Anyway, thank you for the letter and all the adorable flakes. I super love the penguins with seals, etc. :)

Comment: Wow Meredith, thank you for taking me down memory lane with the interesting farm woman postcard you sent to me. When I was little child, both my father's brothers had farms. Yes, they did have dairy cows, milked, churned their own butter, boiled their own milk. They also grew their own fruits, veggies. Amazing. Hope your Spring will be arriving soon.
Response: You're welcome. My father grew up on a dairy farm and I visited my grandparents there when I was growing up. Dad and his only sib, my aunt didn't stay on the farm.

Comment: Always a treat to get a swap from you, Meredith. Such an interesting selection of vintage cards. The one that intrigued me the most was the one from the amateur radio operators, since I've spent some time sailing in that remote area of the Caribbean. No snow here, but a few days of temps in the 30's was tough in my un-heated cottage. Hope you are managing to stay warm in your far colder weather in MN. Thank you for a great swap & for sharing the wonderful 10 rupee note. And yes, I'd be delighted to have more anytime you want to include any in future swaps. Hugs...
Response: I'm delighted that you're delighted! A wool sweater, wool socks, and a wool blanket will help you through those freezing temps better than fleece. Friends who live in Israel without heat do this. When I go in the winter I always take along a wool sweater.

Also saw LOVE in Las Vegas & that show was spectacular! Now, on to your postcards - I have not been to London nor Cape Cod, so thank you so much for them! I have been to Costa Rica, but didn't get any postcards when we were there, so thanks so much for that one! I think it's so funny when there is an international swap, I often get someone from nearby! Hello, neighbor! If you are ever in need of a break on your way to Chicago, take a turn at Janesville; we are about 21 miles from I-90. We have a grown daughter in SF, she just got back from a trip to Thailand. Our son is married with two small boys; they live in Indiana; we'll see them after Christmas.

Comment: A beautiful card, Meredith! I've been to NYC twice with my daughter in 2008 and 2010. I hope to get there at least ONE more time--I love that city---based just on those two visits so I'm not an expert, but next time I am determined to see the Botanical Gardens and the Cloisters. We'll need to find a new hotel location closer to both if possible--previously we were in December and at the Warwick in mid-town. I'd also like an entire day just to explore the library and to see one of the art museums, maybe the MO-MART? Thanks for a great swap! Have a wonderful Christmas and a splendid new year--maybe getting out of the suburbs??
Response: Airbnb is the best way to find lodging in NYC, especially if you want to stay in the Bronx. Find a place located near a subway station rather than driving. PM me when you're ready to go if you'd like help making plans. I've lived and worked there, and we visited often when I was growing up.

Comment: Nice to see your cheery Yellow Submarine envie in my stack of post-Irma incoming. Thank you for the generous selection of PCs, though I can only comment on the 2 great linen ones. The others succumbed to the outer rain bands of the hurricane & all stuck together. I was dumbfounded to find a stack of dirty wet mail in my mailbox when I returned from evacuation. Neither snow nor rain nor hurricanes I guess...This is in no way meant as a plea for a re-send. You went over and above in your mailing & I'm just venting at the stupidity of my local PO. The county emergency app even assured me that mail delivery was curtailed for the duration. As you can probably tell, hurricane stress has taken a toll on me & I'm still frazzled. Enjoyed your nice note, BTW.
Response: I'm glad the linen ones - your favorites - made it through the heavy weather. Let me know if there's *anything* I can do to help, e.g., a care package.

Response: I love those vintage images. They give me a feel of the continuity of the fair. I don't get quite the same feeling when I volunteer for a day at a mini donut booth, with those donut-making robots!

Comment: Thanks so much for all the wonderful PCs for this swap! I really liked them all but the turtle was just beautiful and the cabbage was so unique. I had my windows replaced last year - mine were original back to 1969 so there was a desperate need. . . I live in a townhouse so there was one picture window, a bay window and 10 single windows so it wasn't bad although the day was chilly so I sat on my couch wrapped in a blanket watching TV all day. I'm so glad I did it and it certainly has made a difference in my electric bill during the summer when I run the A/C all the time. Good luck with your repairs. . . it is always a pain to have work done in the home. Thanks again for the great selection of PCs ~~

Response: Was your visit to MOA tourism? Local people told me there were charter flights from Tokyo to visit the mall as well as busloads from all over. It's calmer now and, sadly, Sanrio went out of business.

It is a tough one! I've been looking at them all a while now, and I feel like I'm ready to take a shot at it! Is the theme, bubbles and balloons? (Speech Bubbles)
Response: You're welcome. Your answer is 95% correct. Speech bubbles represent thought, with bubbles between the words and the head. Speech balloons like the ones I selected represent words spoken. I know this because I work with graphic designers on website design.

My neck of the woods is no where near as exciting as yours, not that I necessarily call what happened as exciting, but I will say in some respects its good that people are thinking about hot issues like race and equality. The circumstances that brought it into focus aren't good of course, but the issue does need to be addressed.
Response: You're welcome. There is lots of regret here about what happened and discussions about what to do. For one thing, our city doesn't have oversight of the police department and more scrutiny is the minimum for now.

I haven't read any of Marion Nestle's books yet but I definitely will. I took a Food Systems and Agriculture class last semester and I read "The American Way of Eating" by Tracie McMillan. It's about her experience working in different parts of the food system from the fields to Walmart. The book is extremely honest and very eye opening to me. Also, have fun in NYC :)

Comment: Merdeith, thank you for the postcard and the tale of her. It is interesting I had this postcard and sent it off in one of the swaps, maybe it was to you. Well, it has returned to me and now it will be forever filed in with the other postcards. Shirley
Response: You're welcome. At some point, several years ago, I bought the Pomegranate bargain box of postcards - such a deal! Since I was receiving many in swaps, I put the best like this one away to use later. (About half the box went to Goodwill.) Now it's later and they came out of storage.

Comment: Thank you for the great Monet postcard. I love it. Some of his best work is that lily pond.
Response: You're welcome. I saw an exhibit of Monet's Giverny paintings - the water lilies - all in one place, in NY. It was fabulous.

Comment: Thanks for the interesting pc. Unfortunately the postal machine bent the pc, and smeared your writing. I found myself that hand stamping usually helps in these situations but understand not everyone has the time. Best wishes, Janet
Response: You're welcome. Hand stamping? Having postage stamps hand cancelled? Hand cancelled postcards go through machines anyway, in our area, for sorting. Some postcards travel better than others.

Comment: Hi Meredith! I visited Dachau several years ago and it was a very sad experience. I was quite young, so I don't think I was able to feel wholly the leftover energy there, but nonetheless it left such an impact on me. Thank you for the card reminding me of that time. Have a wonderful week. xo
Response: You're welcome and thanks for the heart. Dachau is quite a sad place. It was a hard place to visit and our memories are the memorial.

Comment: Thank you so much for the postcard from Westminster Palace. How wonderful to be able to visit there! I love English historical novels, too. They have a flavor all their own!
Response: You're welcome and thanks for the heart. I enjoy reading English historical novels too and just for that reason we made a side trip to Bath. I learned that Bath fell out of favour because people got sick and died from bacteria in the water.

Comment: Thanks for the PC. . . the uniforms the RCMP wear always crack me up although I understand why they are the way they are. Yes I do like crime dramas where the good guys win. Thanks again and have a happy week ~~
Response: You're welcome. I suspect the red uniform in modern times is a dress uniform. They look more like state troopers when they are on the job.

Response: You're welcome. Thanks for the heart. I hope you see a covered bridge some day. I'm surprised they aren't building them now - it's less expensive than wiring bridges with electric ice melters.

(Still pulling off tape. Really, manders, that's a lot of tape!) I see we have similar tastes in flakes. And where do you buy glassine envelopes??? Thank you for all this food bounty. I'm in Pattie's happy place. =D Let's do it again!!

Comment: What a beautiful PC! It is so interesting to see hoe other cultures/countries define a castle/palace and the difference in the architecture. This one is just lovely. Thank you so much ~~
Response: You're welcome. It was a fascinating tour. The castle has "nightingale" floors (just like our house). They were built to creak when walked on so that no one could sneak through the palace. There's a good Wikipedia article about them.

Comment: Good god a Friday woman! How much did you send me??? And, for the record, you always have the best stickers "wasted!" on your envelopes! I'm glad you broke down and used a letter set for me. One less!! lol Thanks for all the swag. You're the bestest.
Response: I'm glad you like it. When my spouse sees letters going into the mail covered with stickers he invariably says, oh, that's what they're for. He knows they are not wasted.
